ABSTRACT
The DPP-4 inhibition is an interesting target for the development of antidiabetic agents which promotes the longevity of GPL-1(Glucagon-like peptide 1). The current study was intended to assess DPP-4(Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4) inhibition mediated antidiabetic effect of phytocompounds of an aqueous fruit extract of Withania coagulans (Stocks) Dunal by in-vitro, in-silico and in-vivo approaches. The phytoconstituents screening was executed by LCMS (Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry). The in-vitro and in-vivo, DPP-4 assays were performed by using available kits. The in-vitro DPP-4 activity was inhibited up to 68.3% by the test extract. Accordingly, in-silico determinations of molecular docking, molecular dynamics and pharmacokinetics were performed between the target enzyme DPP-4 and leading phytocompounds. The molecular dynamics authenticated the molecular docking data by crucial parameters of cytosolic milieu by the potential energy, RSMD (Root Mean Square Deviation), RSMF (Root Mean Square Fluctuation), system density, NVT (Number of particles at fixed volume, ensemble) and NPT (Number of particles at fixed pressure, ensemble). Accordingly, ADMET predictions assessed the druggability profile. Subsequently, the course of the test extract and the sitagliptin (positive control), instigated significant (p ≤ 0.001) ameliorations in HOMA indices and the equal of antioxidants in nicotinamide-streptozotocin induced type 2 diabetic animal model. Compassionately, the histopathology represented increased pancreatic cellular mass which caused in restoration of histoarchitectures. It has been concluded that phytoconstituents in W. coagulans aqueous fruit extract can regulate DPP-4, resulting in improved glucose homeostasis and enhanced endocrinal pancreatic cellular mass.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
