Twenty-Eight Selected Phytoconstituents Of Neptunia Oleracea (Water Mimosa) As Antioxidant, Antidiabetic And Antimalarial Activities: An In-Silico Study

Abstract

Neptunia oleracea (Water Mimosa) has been known to demonstrate numerous pharmacological activities. In the current investigation, we aimed to assess twenty-eight chosen phytoconstituents of N. oleracea (Water Mimosa) as excellent inhibitory agents of human prolidase (hPEPD), human protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (hPTP 1B) and Anopheles gambiae glutathione-S-transferase delta-class (agGSTd1-6) using molecular docking method.

The twenty-eight selected constituents of N. oleracea (Water Mimosa) were studied on the docking behaviour of hPEPD, hPTP 1B and agGSTd1-6 by utilizing the Swiss dock approach. The docking analysis showed that quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, narcissoside and quercetin-3, 7-di-O-glucoside of N. oleracea (Water Mimosa) has exhibited the maximum binding energy (-9.27, -9.02 and -9.95 kcal/mol) with the hPEPD, hPTP 1B and agGSTd1-6 respectively. Thus, the current result provides a new insight regarding the twenty-eight chosen ligands of N. oleracea (Water Mimosa) as excellent inhibitory agents of human prolidase (hPEPD), human protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (hPTP 1B) and Anopheles gambiae glutathione-S-transferase delta-class (agGSTd1-6), which thereby will aid in managing wounds, diabetes mellitus and malaria.
