Aspulvinones Suppress Postprandial Hyperglycemia as Potent α-Glucosidase Inhibitors From Aspergillus terreus ASM-1.

ABSTRACT: Chemical investigation of Aspergillus terreus ASM-1 fermentation resulted in the isolation of three new prenylated aspulvinones V-X (1-3), together with the previously reported analogs, aspulvinone H (4), J-CR (5), and R (6). Their structures were elucidated by various spectroscopic methods including HRESIMS and NMR, and the absolute configurations of 2 and 3 were determined by ECD comparison. Compounds 1-6 were evaluated for α-glucosidase inhibitory effects with acarbose as positive control. As a result, compounds 1 and 4 exhibited potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activities with IC₅₀ values of 2.2 and 4.6 µM in mixed-type manners. The thermodynamic constants recognized the interaction between in
