Anti-diabetic potential of Urena lobata leaf extract through inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the anti-diabetic potential of leaf extract from Urena lobata (U. lobata) through dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity. Methods: U. lobata leaf was extracted in hot water and ethanol. The activity of DPP-IV inhibitor was tested by in vitro study using gly-pro-p-nitroanilide as substrat of DPP-IV and vildagliptin, as standard reference. A product of the reactions between gly-pro-pnitroanilide and DPP-IV, was observed by microplate readers with l = 405 nm. All data were exp… Show more

“…The effect of active compounds in U. lobata that has potency such as increasing β-cells proliferations and inhibiting β-cells apoptosis through GLP-1 activation 5, 9, 32. Bioavailability of GLP-1 could be retained due to DPP-4 inhibitor substances in the extract such as stigmasterol, mangiferin, and β-sitosterol 13, 26, 31. It affects the integrity of β-cells indirectly in the test group, it is shown in the shape of cells, size, and number which is close to normal groups.…”

“…However, GLP‐1 has very short half‐lives, approximately for 1–2 min owing to proteolytic cleavage of the N‐terminal dipeptide specifically for L‐alanine or L‐proline at the penultimate position by dipeptidyl peptidase‐IV (DPP‐IV) into inactive forms. Inhibition of enzyme DPP‐IV maintains the level of endogenous active GLP‐1 and prolongs its half‐life (Purnomo, Soeatmadji, Sumitro, & Widodo, ). DPP‐IV is a serine protease localized on cellular surfaces.…”
