RESUMEN
Chemical investigation of corn silk resulted in the isolation of nine secondary metabolites, including a new ent-kaurane diterpenoid, zeamaysditerpene A (1) and eight known compounds, stigmaydene A (2), stigmaydene J (3), stigmaydene L (4), stigmane D (5), demethyltorosaflavone D (6), chrysoeriol 6-C-ß-boivinopyranosyl-7-O-ß-D-glucopyranoside (7), deoxypodophyllotoxin (8), and α-peltatin glucoside (9). Their structures were elucidated using a combination of spectroscopic methods, including 1D and 2D NMR and HRESIQTOF mass spectra. The absolute configuration of 1 was deduced by applying electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation method. Among the isolates, only 6 displayed significant inhibition against PTP1B activity in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 10.7 ± 0.1 µM. Furthermore, molecular docking simulation was carried out to explore the action perspective of 6 inside the enzyme PTP1B. This finding suggests that 6 might be a potential lead for the development of a new anti-diabetic agent.
