Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is considered as a therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. In our preliminary screening study, a MeOH extract of the aerial part of Siegesbeckia glabrescens was found to inhibit PTP1B activity at 30 microg/mL. Bioassay-guided fractionation led to the isolation of two active diterpenes, ent-16betaH, 17-isobutyryloxy-kauran-19-oic acid (1) and ent-16betaH, 17-acetoxy-18-isobutyryloxy-kauran-19-oic acid (2), along with ent- 16betaH, 17-hydroxykauran-19-oic acid (3). Compounds 1 and 2 inhibited the PTP1B activity with IC50 values of 8.7 +/- 0.9 and 30.6 +/- 2.1 microM, respectively. Kinetic studies suggest that both 1 and 2 are non-competitive inhibitors of PTP1B. However, compound 3 substituted with a hydroxyl group at C-17 in kaurane-type showed no inhibitory effects towards PTP1B.Entities:
