Isolation and characterization of galactomannan from Sesbania seed and its inhibitory activity against α-amylase to explore its therapeutic ability
摘要
The purpose of this study to isolate galactomannan from endosperm of S. sesban (Linn.) and S. grandiflora (L.) Pers. seed and examine bioactivity of galactomannan to explore therapeutic potential through in-vitro/in-silico studies, two extensively grown but therapeutic potential yet not explored. The aim is to evaluate pharmacological potential by in-vitro and in-silico studies. GPC, GC-FID, FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HSQC were used to characterized GM and inhibitory activity against α-amylase. Average molecular weight and average molecular number were determined by GPC and found to be 3.42 × 105, and 2.68 × 105 of SS GM respectively while 2.48 × 105 and 1.14 × 105 of SG GM respectively. M/G ratio of SS and SG GM was determined through GC-FID which consists of D-mannopyranose and D-galactopyranose with a molar ratio of 1.6: 1 and 2.1: 1 respectively. Functional groups such as OH and CH2, anomeric α, β configuration and glycosidic linkages were validated by FT-IR. In-vitro α-amylase inhibitory activity of SG GM was found to be more in comparison to SS GM. Docking study revealed that GM is identified as most lead compound against α-amylase inhibitory activity. It showed maximum binding affinity (− 9.03 Kcal/mol) as acarbose (− 10.5 Kcal/mol). Thus, it has further scope to utilize as scaffold in drug design as antidiabetic agent. Hence, Sesbania galactomannan would be essential and beneficial for its future development and new possibilities for use in high value application.
