Abstract:
Dystaenia takeshimana (Nakai) Kitagawa belongs to the family Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) and is a perennial herb naturally endemic to Ulleung Island, Republic of Korea. Following its successful introduction and cultivation in mainland Korea, a phytochemical investigation of this plant was carried out. As a result, thirteen compounds were isolated and structurally characterized, including one flavonoid glycoside (1), two polyacetylenes (2 and3), one caffeoylquinic acid derivative (4), one aliphatic hydroxy acid (5), four phenolic acids and their derivatives(6, 8–10), one aromatic alcohol derivative (7), two carbohydrates (11 and 12), and one phytosterol (13). The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on spectroscopic analyses and comparison with previously reported literature data. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents the first report on the isolation of falcarinol (2), trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenoic acid (5), and sucrose (11) from D. takeshimana and the evaluation of their protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory activity. Compounds 2, 3, and 5 exhibited potent PTP1B inhibitory effects with IC50 values of 10.74, 8.31, and 25.24 µM, respectively. Enzyme kinetic studies indicated noncompetitive inhibition by 2 and mixed-type inhibition by 5 against PTP1B. Furthermore, molecular docking analysis was performed to investigate the binding interactions between the active compounds and the enzyme active site.
