α-Glucosidase, which is involved in the hydrolysis of carbohydrates to glucose and directly mediates blood glucose elevation, is a crucial therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes. In this work, 2,5-disubstituted furan derivatives containing 1,3-thiazole-2-amino or 1,3-thiazole-2-thiol moiety (III-01 ∼ III-30) were synthesized and screened for their inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase. α-Glucosidase inhibition assay demonstrated that all compounds had IC50 in the range of 0.645-94.033 μM and more potent than standard inhibitor acarbose (IC50 = 452.243 ± 54.142 µM). The most promising inhibitors of the two series were compound III-10 (IC50 = 4.120 ± 0.764 μM) and III-24 (IC50 = 0.645 ± 0.052 μM), respectively. Kinetic study and molecular docking simulation revealed that compound III-10 (Ki = 2.04 ± 0.72 μM) is a competitive inhibitor and III-24 (Ki = 0.44 ± 0.53 μM) is a noncompetitive inhibitor against α-glucosidase. Significantly, these two compounds showed nontoxicity towards HEK293, RAW264.7 and HepG2 cells, suggesting that compounds may be considered as a class of potential candidates for further developing novel antidiabetic drugs.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.
