ABSTRACT
Inhibiting α-amylase can lower postprandial blood glucose levels and delay glucose absorption, offering an effective approach for the development of antidiabetic diets. In this study, an active constituent with inhibitory activity against α-amylase was isolated and purified by bioassay-guided fractionation from Carya cathayensis Sarg. peel (CCSP). The active constituent was identified by NMR and Q-Exactive Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry as 5-O-p-coumaroylquinic acid (5-CQA). 5-CQA possessed strong inhibitory activity against α-amylase, with an IC50 value of 69.39 µM. In addition, the results of the kinetic study indicated that 5-CQA was a potent, reversible, noncompetitive inhibitor against α-amylase. The findings indicate that 5-CQA derived from CCSP has potential as a novel inhibitor against α-amylase, which can help mitigate postprandial blood sugar spikes, making it suitable for inclusion in antidiabetic diets.
