Abstract:
:Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder which is rapidly spreading worldwide. It is characterized by persistent elevated blood glucose level above normal values (hyperglycemia) due to defect in either insulin secretion or in insulin action or both of them. Currently approved oral synthetic antidiabetic drugs such as biguanides, thiazolidinediones, sulfonylureas, and meglitinides have shown undesirable side effects. Therefore, newer approaches and targets for the management of diabetes mellitus are highly desirable. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 enzyme, α-glucosidase enzyme and sodium-dependent glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) have been recognized as effective therapeutic targets for the management of diabetes mellitus while natural products are alternatives to oral synthetic hypoglycemic agents. During the last two decades, many researchers were working on the identification and the validation of plant-derived products for curing various diseases. Natural products do not only provide useful drugs in their own right but also provide templates for the development of more effective compounds for enhanced therapeutic potential. Herein, we advocated the vital role of natural products as source of new drugs by presenting promising inhibitors of dipeptidyle peptidase-4 enzyme, α-glucosidase enzyme and (SGLT2) obtained from different medicinal plants as potential candidates for drug development against diabetes mellitus. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of these various inhibitors is also discussed.
