This study aimed to evaluate the potential of marine fungus Purpureocillium lilacinum isolated from an Indonesian marine sponge Stylissa sp. as an anti-obesity agent through pancreatic lipase inhibition assay. The fungus was identified as P. lilacinum through morphological and molecular characteristics. The fungal extract’s inhibition activity and kinetics were evaluated using spectrophotometry and Lineweaver-Burk plots. Ethyl acetate and butanol were used for extraction. Both extracts showed pancreatic lipase inhibition in a concentration-dependent manner. Both crude extracts were then fractionated once. All fractionated extracts showed inhibitory activity above 50%, with the highest activity found in fraction 5 of ethyl acetate at 93.41% inhibition. The best fractionated extract had an IC50value of 220.60 µg.mL-1. The most active fraction of P. lilacinum had a competitive-type inhibitor behavior as shown by the value of Vmax not significantly changing from 388.80 to 382.62 mM pNP.min-1, and the Michaelis-Menten constant (KM) increased from 2.02 to 5.47 mM in the presence of 500 µg.mL-1 fractionated extract. Metabolite identification with LC-MS/MS QTOF suggested that galangin, kaempferol, and quercetin were responsible for the observed lipase inhibition.

Aim: A series of novel quinazolinone derivates was synthesized and assessed for their ability to inhibitory action on pancreatic lipase. The cyclization of quinazolinone-4(3H)-one derivatives was achieved, whereas carbon-carbon cross coupling reactions were carried out on cyclized quinazolinone-4(3H)-one. This synthesis method afforded corresponding 2, 3 and 6 substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones (3a to 3m) with moderate to high yields. Methods: Benzamide derivatives (1a-1b) were synthesized from anthranilic acid using acid-amine reaction, followed by cyclization using catalytic p-toluene sulfonic acid and oxidation using (diacetoxyiodo)benzene to give bromo substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones (2a-2b), which were cross coupled to suitable boronic acid using Suzuki-Miyaura condition to obtain desired compound (3a-3m). All synthesized compounds were characterized by FTIR, proton NMR, LC-MS analysis, checked for their drug likeness, absorption and evaluated for in vitro pancreatic lipase inhibition activity. Results: Analytical interpretation of all compounds with infrared, proton NMR and LC-MS spectroscopy confirmed their correct structure. All compounds (3a-3m) show good absorption and have reasonably good molecular properties except 3c and 3m which violate two criteria for Lipinski’s rule. Whereas, Compounds 3l and 3m showed IC50 value of 13.13±0.84 µg/mL and 13.80±1.27 µg/mL respectively comparable to the Orlistat (12.72±0.97µg/mL), a US FDA approved drug for the treatment of obesity. Conclusion: Pancreatic lipase is an important lipolytic enzyme, synthesized and secreted through pancreas, plays an important role in dietary trigycerol absorption and metabolism. Therefore, reducing fat absorption through pancreatic lipase inhibition is a promising strategy to treat obesity. Based upon our findings, compounds 3l and 3m can be further developed as potent anti-obesity agents.

In continuation towards the discovery of potential antiobesity lead(s) from natural products, we have screened n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and methanol (MeOH) extracts of 33 Indian medicinal plants (200 extracts) for in vitro pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity. Of the screened extracts, the EtOAc extract of Cassia siamea roots showed 74.3±1.4% enzyme inhibition at 250 μg/mL concentration. Bioassay guided fractionation of the active extract afforded 6 known compounds viz. chrysophanol (1), physcion (2), emodin (3), cassiamin A (4), friedelin (5) and cycloart-25-en-3β,24-diol (6). These compounds were further evaluated for pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity. Cassiamin A (4), a bianthraquinone, was found to be most active with an IC50 value of 41.8±1.2 μM and compounds 2 and 5 were found to be moderate enzyme inhibitors. Results indicate the antiobesity potential of C. siamea through pancreatic lipase inhibition.

Abstract BackgroundResearches and publication discussing performance of medicinal plants as anti-obesity have proliferated in recent years. In the view of ethnopharmacology, empiric evidence of Indonesian medicinal plants in management of obesity is widely accepted. In attempt to find anti-obesity agent, it is evidenced that the disorder can be resolved through inhibition of pancreatic lipase since the mechanism allowed to retard absorption of fat into cells. This current work aimed to screen Indonesian medicinal plants by using ethnopharmacology and meta-analysis approaches, emphasizing their ability to deal with obesity via pancreatic lipase inhibition. MethodsThe study followed two stages, i.e. systematic review and meta-analysis. Data from 6 scientific (Scopus, Science Direct, Proquest, Ebsco, Cengage Library and Emerald) were collected, screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The eligibility of the trials was determined according to criteria as follows: (1) design for lipase inhibition experiments; (2) population in all researches using in vitro protocols for antiobesity in last 10 years; (3) intervention for comparison between lipase inhibition IC50 properties of selected medicinal plants and orlistat; and (4) data adequacy enabling to estimate the standardized mean difference (SMD) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). Further, all published papers we reviewed were written in English. Furthermore, steps of meta-analysis were performed on the selected data. Extraction of data in these articles collected number of samples, average values and standard deviation of IC50. The values focused on IC50 of samples in inhibiting lipase activities performed by plant extracts and orlistat as control. ResultA total 10 selected data meet the inclusion criteria. Morever these plant can be found and common as traditional medicine plant in Indonesia ConclusionAs the results, there were top 10 anti-obesity medicinal plants as follows: i.e. kelor (Moringa oleifera) leaves, kemangi (Ocimum basilicum) leaves, asam jawa (Tamarindus indica) leaves, asam gelugur (Garcinia atroviridis) fruit, lengkuas (Alpinia galanga) rhizome, and kencur (Kaempferia galanga) rhizome, kumis kucing (Orthosipon aristatus) leaves, jambu biji leaves (Psidium guajava leavaes), serai wangi (Cymbopogon nardus) and kayu secang (Caesalpinia sappan).
