Antihyperglycemic glucosylated coumaroyltyramine derivatives from Teucrium viscidum.

Eight new glucosylated coumaroyltyramine derivatives, teuvissides A-H (1-8), were isolated from whole plants of Teucrium viscidum. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic data and chemical methods. The antihyperglycemic activities of these compounds were evaluated in HepG2 cells and 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and all of the isolates elicited different levels of glucose consumption at a concentration of 2.0 µM. Teuvissides A (1), B (2), and F (6) induced 2.2-, 2.1-, and 2.2-fold changes, respectively, in the levels of glucose consumption in HepG2 cells and 2.5-, 2.1-, and 2.3-fold changes, respectively, in 3T3-L1 adipocytes relative to the basal levels.
