Abstract
In an effort to explore a new class of antidiabetic inhibitors, a new series of isoxazolidine and C-alkyl imine oxide derivatives scaffolds were designed, synthesized and fully characterized. The newly synthesized analogues were evaluated for their human pancreatic α-amylase (HPA) and human lysosomal acid-α-glucosidase (HLAG) inhibitory activities and have shown a higher potency than acarbose. The compounds 7b (23.1 ± 1.1 μM) and 7a (36.3 ± 1.6 μM) were identified as the potent HPA and HLAG inhibitors with inhibitory effect up to 9 and 21-fold higher than acarbose, respectively. Antihyperglycemic activity results were supported by molecular docking approach of the most potent compounds 7b and 7a showing stronger interactions with the active site of HPA and HLAG as well as by in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) profile suggesting their satisfactory oral druglikeness without toxic effect. Therefore, it can be concluded that both 7b and 7a can be used as effective lead molecules for the development of HPA and HLAG inhibitors for the management of T2DM.
