Background: Diosmin is a flavonoid obtained from the citrus fruits of the plants. Diosmin has blood lipid lowering activities, antioxidant activity, enhances venous tone and microcirculation, protects capillaries, mainly by reducing systemic oxidative stress. Objective: The present study demonstrates the potential of Diosmin against the enzymes aldose reductase, α-glucosidase, and α-amylase involved in diabetes and its complications by in vitro evaluation and reverse molecular docking studies. Method: The assay of aldose reductase was performed by using NADPH as starting material and DL-Glyceraldehyde as a substrate. DNS method was used for alpha amylase inhibition and in alpha glucosidase inhibitory activity p-nitrophenyl glucopyranoside (pNPG) was used as substrate. The reverse molecular docking studies was performed by using Molegro software (MVD) with grid resolution of 30 Å. Result: Diosmin shows potent inhibitory effect against aldose reductase (IC50:333.88±0.04 µg/mL), α-glucosidase (IC50:410.3±0.01 µg/mL) and α-amylase (IC50: 404.22±0.02 µg/mL) respectively. The standard drugs shows moderate inhibitory activity for enzymes. The MolDock Score of Diosmin was -224.127 against aldose reductase, -168.17 against α-glucosidase and -176.013 against α-amylase respectively, which was much higher than standard drugs. Conclusion: From the result it was concluded that diosmin was a potentially inhibitor of aldose reductase, alpha amylase and alpha glucosidase enzymes then the standard drugs and it will be helpful in the management of diabetes and its complications. This will also be benevolent to decrease the socio economical burden on the middle class family of the society.

A 3D model of Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) (Accession Number: Q543f6) is generated based on crystal structure of P. falciparum PFPK5-indirubin-5-sulphonate ligand complex (PDB ID: 1V0O) at 2.30 Å resolution was used as template. Protein-ligand interaction studies were performed with flavonoids to explore structural features and binding mechanism of flavonoids as CDK5 (Cyclin-dependent kinase 5) inhibitors. The modelled structure was selected on the basis of least modeler objective function. The model was validated by PROCHECK. The predicted 3D model is reliable with 93.0% of amino acid residues in core region of the Ramachandran plot. Molecular docking studies with flavonoids viz., Diosmetin, Eriodictyol, Fortuneletin, Apigenin, Ayanin, Baicalein, Chrysoeriol and Chrysosplenol-D with modelled protein indicate that Diosmetin is the best inhibitor containing docking score of -8.23 kcal/mol. Cys83, Lys89, Asp84. The compound Diosmetin shows interactions with Cys83, Lys89, and Asp84.
