    Abstract: 〈 p 〉 Background: Mimosa pudica Linn has been used in traditional medicine to support the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In the present study, we aimed to isolate and evaluate & #945;-glucosidase and Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activities of bioactive compounds from Mimosa pudica’s leaf extract. 〈 p 〉 Methods: Mimosa pudica leaves were extracted with 80% of ethanol. Bioactive compounds were isolated using a column chromatographic technique and elucidated the structure based on the nuclear magnetic resonance and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry spectral data. The & #945;- glucosidase and PTP1B inhibitory activities of the isolated compounds were evaluated using pnitrophenyl phosphate and p-nitrophenyl- & #945;-D-glucopyranoside as a substrate, respectively. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics are used to study the interaction between isolated compounds and proteins. Lipinski’s rule of five was used to evaluate the drug-like properties of isolated compounds. Predict pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated using the pkCSM tool. 〈 p 〉 Results: Protocatechuic acid and syringic acid were isolated and identified using spectroscopic methods. Protocatechuic acid and syringic acid considerably inhibited & #945;-glucosidase enzyme at IC 〈 sub 〉 50 〈 /sub 〉 values of 416.17 ± 9.41 μM and 490.78 ± 9.28 μM, respectively. Furthermore, protocatechuic acid and syringic acid expressed strong PTP1B inhibitory activity at IC 〈 sub 〉 50 〈 /sub 〉 values of 248.83 ± 7.66 μM and 450.31 ± 7.77 μM, respectively. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics results showed the interactions of protocatechuic acid and syringic acid with amino acids of PTP1B and & #945;-glucosidase enzyme. Lipinski’s rule of five and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity studies predicted that protocatechuic acid and syringic acid have drug-likeness properties. In molecular docking simulation, protocatechuic acid and syringic acid gave relatively negative free binding energies and interacted with many amino acids in the active sites of PTP1B and & #945;-glucosidase. The molecular dynamics simulation results of the complexes were also relatively stable. 〈 p 〉 Conclusion: Our results showed that protocatechuic and syringic acids could be promising compounds for type 2 diabetes treatment. 〈 /p 〉

    Abstract: Traditional medicine has used Mimosa pudica Linn. for diabetes treatment. This study evaluates the antidiabetic and renoprotective effects of the ethyl acetate fraction of M. pudica leaves on streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice. Methods: The cold maceration method was used to extract M. pudica leaves with 80% ethanol at room temperature. Ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction was obtained from the M. pudica leaves extract by successively partitioning with different solvents. Mice were induced diabetes type 2 by streptozotocin (STZ) at a low dose and treated with EtOAc fraction of M. pudica leaves at 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg b.w for 60 days. After 24 hours of the final dose of therapy, the mice were sacrificed to extract blood and kidney tissues for biochemical and histopathological analysis. Results: The EtOAc fraction of M. pudica leaves showed strong activity in improving glucose concentration in the oral glucose tolerance test. Our results showed that EtOAc fraction significantly decreased levels of glucose, total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglyceride (TG) and increased the level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and protected kidneys against damage in mice. EtOAc fraction also increased the levels of antioxidant enzymes, including catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), and decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) formation and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α) in kidney tissues. Moreover, the renoprotective effect was also observed in the histopathological analysis. Conclusion: Our findings support the fact that the EtOAc fraction of M. pudica leaves has potent anti-diabetic nephropathy activity by decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and improving antioxidant levels.

    Abstract: Aurantiochytrium is a heterotrophic marine microalga that has potential industrial applications. The main objectives of this study were to isolate an Aurantiochytrium strain from Sand Cay (Son Ca) Island, Vietnam, optimize its culture conditions, determine its nutritional composition, extract polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the free (FFA) and the alkyl ester (FAAE) forms, and evaluate the antioxidation and neuroprotection properties of the PUFAs. Aurantiochytrium sp. SC145 can be grown stably under laboratory conditions. Its culture conditions were optimized for a dry cell weight (DCW) of 31.18 g/L, with total lipids comprising 25.29%, proteins 7.93%, carbohydrates 15.21%, and carotenoid at 143.67 µg/L of DCW. The FAAEs and FFAs extracted from Aurantiochytrium sp. SC145 were rich in omega 3–6–9 fatty acids (40.73% and 44.00% of total fatty acids, respectively). No acute or subchronic oral toxicity was determined in mice fed with the PUFAs in FFA or FAAE forms at different doses over 90 days. Furthermore, the PUFAs in the FFA or FAAE forms and their main constituents of EPA, DHA, and ALA showed antioxidant and AChE inhibitory properties and neuroprotective activities against damage caused by H2O2- and amyloid-ß protein fragment 25–35 (Aβ25-35)-induced C6 cells. These data suggest that PUFAs extracted from Aurantiochytrium sp. SC145 may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.

    Abstract: Isolation, structure determination, and antimicrobial activities evaluation of compounds from the methanol extract of the marine microalga Thraustochytrium pachydermum TSL10. Methods Using chromatographic methods to isolate compounds from the methanol extract of the T pachydermum. The chemical structures were elucidated by analyses of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectral data. The antimicrobial activities of compounds were evaluated using the dilution turbidimetric broth method as the standard protocol published by the Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute. Results One new sterol, (24 R)-ergosta-7,22-diene-3 β,5 α,9 α-triol (1), and 16 known compounds, ergosta-7,22-diene-3 β,5 α-diol (2), cerevisterol (3), (22 E,24 S)-5 α,6 α-epoxy-ergosta-8(9),22-diene-3 β,7 α-diol (4), ergosterol (5), 5 α,8 α-epidioxyergosta-6,22-diene-3 β-ol (6), linoleic acid (7), 4-((9 Z,12 Z)-octadeca-9,12-dienoyloxy)butanoic acid (8), 1-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (9), cibotiglycerol (10), gingerglycolipid B (11), oleic acid (12), 4-((9Z)-octadec-9-enoyloxy)butanoic acid (13), (2 S)-1- O-(9 Z)-octadec-9-enoyl)-3- O-(6-sulfo-D-quinovopyranosyl)glycerol (14), 6′- O-linoleylsucrose (15), gingerglycolipid C (16), and ( S)-3-stearoyl- sn-glycerol (17) were identified from the marine microalga Thraustochytrium pachydermum TSL10. Sterols 1–6 were found to exhibit significant antimicrobial activities on Gram-( + ) bacteria ( Enterococcus faecalis ATCC29212 , Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, and Bacillus cereus ATCC14579) and the yeast ( Candida albicans ATCC10231) with MIC values ranging from 32 to 256 µg/mL. Conclusions The results suggested sterols 1–6 could be potential antimicrobial agents against Gram-( + ) bacteria.
