Antioxidant activity was determined based on phenolic content, flavonoid content, and antioxidant test using the TBA method. The highest phenolic and flavonoid levels were shown by the aqueous extract of C. ternatea leave of 57.51 mg GAE/g and 1.50 mg EK/g, respectively. The highest levels of flavonoid were from flower parts treated with boiling technique (0.88 mg EK/g), followed by brewed flowers and macerated flowers. The highest antioxidant activity was obtained from flowers that were boiled for 30 minutes with a percentage inhibition of 94%. Based on the method of extraction and part of the plant, all extracts of C. ternatea have similar antioxidant potential.","PeriodicalId":90150,"journal":{"name":"Current cellular biochemistry","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75683087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This issue underlies the research that aims to identify bioactive compounds from Indramayu mango peel which have the potential as ACE2 inhibitors. The study was initiated by extracting mango peel simplicia using aquadest, then carried out with phytochemical screening, and identification of compound content by LC-MS. The extraction obtained 21.3% of yield. The results of phytochemical screening showed that secondary metabolites in the form of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins were identified in the mango peel. At the same time, the LC-MS fragmentation results obtained 40 compounds based on the largest sample area. The result from fragmentation were tested for Lipinski bioavailability prediction and ADMET test and obtained 10 potential compounds. Molecular docking was performed on the ACE2 receptor with 10 sample ligands and 1 comparison ligand using YASARA Structure. All of the sample ligands (from Lipinski and ADMET test) showed higher free energies than comparison ligand, chloroquine. Mangiferin is a typical mango compound identified in LC-MS, had inhibitor activity against ACE2. Two-dimensional visualization using Discovery Studio showed mangiferin interaction with the receptor via hydrogen bond, hydrogen carbon bond and phi-anion interactions at three amino acid residues (Thr371, Glu375, Glu402) on the active site of ACE2. \u0000Keywords: ACE2, bioactive compound, mango peel, mangiferin, waste","PeriodicalId":90150,"journal":{"name":"Current cellular biochemistry","volume":"104 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87707067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inhibition of the DPP4 enzyme will increase blood GLP-1 levels and induce regeneration of pancreatic beta cells.

This review focuses on the discussion of Senggani as an antidiabetic by analyzing the reduction in glucose levels and the repair ability of pancreatic beta cells. The results of the literature study that show that senggani leaves have the ability to reduce blood glucose levels and repair activity of pancreatic beta cells through the DPP-4 enzyme inhibition mechanism supported by molecular docking simulation data.
