Anti-diabetic potential of Urena lobata leaf extract through inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity

Objective: To evaluate the anti-diabetic potential of leaf extract from Urena lobata(U. lobata) through dipeptidyl peptidase IV(DPP-IV) inhibitory activity.Methods: U. lobata leaf was extracted in hot water and ethanol. The activity of DPPIV inhibitor was tested by in vitro study using gly-pro-p-nitroanilide as substrat of DPPIV and vildagliptin, as standard reference. A product of the reactions between gly-pro-pnitroanilide and DPP-IV, was observed by microplate readers with λ = 405 nm. All data were expressed as mean ± SD and the IC50 value was determined by non linear regression curve fit. Active substances in leaf extract of U. lobata was analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. DPP-IV inhibitory activity of active compounds was evaluated in silico using docking server. Results: The ethanolic extract of U. lobata showed stronger DPP-IV inhibitor activity than water extract with the IC50 values of 1 654.64 and 6 489.88 μg/mL, respectively. Vildagliptin, based on standard reference for DPP-IV inhibitor activity, has IC50 value of 57.44 μg/mL. Based on in silico analysis, mangiferin, stigmasterol and β-sitosterol in U. lobata extract have a strong inhibitory activity on DPP-IV. Conclusions: The results showed that DPP-IV inhibitory activity of U. lobata is related to its active compounds such as mangiferin, stigmasterol and β-sitosterol.

Effect of Urena lobataleaves extract on the improvements of lipid profiles on diabetic rats

OBJECTIVE To investigate effect of U.lobataleaves extract on the improvement of lipid profiles on diabetic rats.METHODS This study uses control group post test only with male Sprague dawley rats.Diabetic rats was induced by high fructose diet(HFD)and single dose streptozotocin 25mg·kg-1 bw intra peritoneal.The rat was administrated orally with water extract of U.lobataleaves in dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 bw for 4weeks.After scarifying,blood sample was collected and then total cholesterol(TC)serum level,triglyceride(TG),low density lippoprotein(LDL)and high density lipoprotein(HDL)were examined.The data was analyzed using ANOVA test continued with LSD test(P<0.05).RESULTS The supplementation of water extract from U.lobatain dose of 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 bw decrease TC serum level approximately 15%,25% and 35% compared to diabetic group(P<0.05),whereas the TG was decreased by 10%,20% and 30%(P<0.05)respectively.The oral administration of U.lobataleaves extract 250,500 and 1000mg·kg-1 bw also were able to decrease LDL serum level about 30%,60% and 90%respectively compared to diabetic group(P<0.05),while the HDL serum level was increased by 40%,80% and 100%(P<0.05)respectively.In diabetic groups,HDL level serum was decreased compared to normal group(P<0.05)while the TC,TG and HDL were increased(P<0.05).CONCLUSION U.lobata leaves extract could repair lipid profiles of diabetic rats by increasing of HDL serum level,decreasing of TC serum level,TG and LDL.This potency may be related to active substances which act as an anti-cholesterolemia and antioxidant in U.lobata extract.
