Abstract
A series of chromone derivatives bearing thiazolidine-2,4-dione moiety (5 ∼ 37) were synthesized and evaluated for their PTP1B inhibitory activity, interaction analysis and effects on insulin pathway in palmitic acid (PA)-induced HepG2 cells. The results showed that all derivatives presented potential PTP1B inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 1.40 ± 0.04 ∼ 16.83 ± 0.54 μM comparing to that of positive control lithocholic acid (IC50: 9.62 ± 0.14 μM). Among them, compound 9 had the strongest PTP1B inhibitory activity with the IC50 value of 1.40 ± 0.04 μM. Inhibition kinetic study revealed that compound 9 was a reversible mixed-type inhibitor against PTP1B. CD spectra results confirmed that compound 9 changed the secondary structure of PTP1B by their interaction. Molecular docking explained the detailed binding between compound 9 and PTP1B. Compound 9 also showed 19-fold of selectivity for PTP1B over TCPTP. Moreover compound 9 could recovery PA-induced insulin resistance by increasing the phosphorylation of IRSI and AKT. CETSA results showed that compound 9 significantly increased the thermal stability of PTP1B.
