TLDR
The predicted physico-chemical properties indicated the drug appropriateness for most of these compounds, as they obey Lipinski's rule of five (RO5), and a new class of α-glucosidase inhibitors was identified.

Re-exploring promising α-glucosidase inhibitors for potential development into oral anti-diabetic drugs: Finding needle in the haystack.

TL;DR: A review finds those "needles" in that haystack and lays groundwork for highlighting promising α-glucosidase inhibitors from the literature that may potentially become suitable candidates for pre-clinical or clinical trials while drawing attention of the drug development community to consider and take already-identified promisingα-glUCosid enzyme inhibitors into the next stage of drug development.

Isatin based Schiff bases as inhibitors of α-glucosidase: Synthesis, characterization, in vitro evaluation and molecular docking studies.

TL;DR: Isatin base Schiff bases (1-20) were synthesized, characterized by (1)H NMR and EI/MS and evaluated for α-glucosidase inhibitory potential and the binding interactions of these active analogs were confirmed through molecular docking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of novel flavone hydrazones: in-vitro evaluation of α-glucosidase inhibition, QSAR analysis and docking studies.

TL;DR: Increase in activity observed for compounds 2 to 34 clearly highlights the importance of flavone, hydrazide and hydrazone linkage in suppressing the activity of α-glucosidase.

Inhibition of alpha-glucosidase and amylase by luteolin, a flavonoid.

TL;DR: Luteolin inhibited alpha-glucosidase by 36% at the concentration of 0.5 mg/ml and was stronger than acarbose, the most widely prescribed drug, in inhibitory potency, suggesting that it has the possibility to effectively suppress postprandial hyperglycemia in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.
