Embodiment 1

[0210] Example 1. Brazilian green propolis inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis in diabetic mice

[0211] In order to study the hypoglycemic mechanism of propolis, the hypoglycemic activity of Brazilian green propolis was first tested in db / db diabetic mice. The results showed that short-term oral administration of Brazilian green propolis (250 mg / kg) for 1-2 days significantly reduced the fasting blood glucose ( figure 1 .A). Glucose tolerance in db / db diabetic mice after administration of Brazilian green propolis for 2 weeks ( figure 1 .B) and insulin sensitivity ( figure 1 .C) was significantly improved.

[0212] DIO (diet induced obesity, DIO) mice were administered with Brazilian green propolis for 2 weeks and then tested for pyruvate tolerance. The results showed that Brazilian green propolis significantly inhibited hepatic gluconeogenesis in high-fat-induced diabetic mice (DIO) ( figure 1 .D).

[0213] After DIO mice were given Brazilian green propolis for 3 weeks...

Embodiment 2

[0216] Example 2. CREB / CRTC2 two-hybrid system detects the activity of Brazilian green propolis components.

[0217] Glucagon-induced hepatic gluconeogenesis mainly depends on the GCGR-cAMP-PKA-CREB / CRTC2-CRE signaling pathway ( figure 2 .A).

[0218] Because Brazilian green propolis had no significant effect on the phosphorylation of cAMP and CREB stimulated by glucagon ( figure 2 .B), indicating that the inhibitory target of Brazilian green propolis on hepatic gluconeogenesis may be at the end of the glucagon signaling pathway. After being activated and dephosphorylated by glucagon, CRTC2 can effectively promote the transcription of genes related to hepatic gluconeogenesis through the combination of nuclear entry and CREB. Based on this principle, CREB was constructed: CRTC2-Ser171Ala mammalian two-hybrid system ( figure 2 .C) (this system uses mutant CRTC2-Ser171Ala to simulate the state of dephosphorylated and activated CRTC2), and the effect of propolis on CREB-CRTC...

Embodiment 3

[0222] Example 3. Artepillin C inhibits the protein interaction between CREB and CRTC2

[0223] In order to further study the molecular mechanism of Artepillin C inhibiting the mutual binding of CREB-CRTC2, the inventors detected the inhibitory activity of Artepillin C by immunoprecipitation. In HEK293T cell lysate overexpressing FLAG-mCRTC2, Artepillin C significantly inhibited the interaction between GST-hCREB beads and FLAG-mCRTC2 ( image 3 .A). Since hepatocytes can metabolize exogenous drugs and metabolic intermediates, it was further verified whether Artepillin C could maintain inhibitory activity in hepatocytes. Using primary hepatocytes as experimental materials, co-immunoprecipitation was used to detect the mutual binding of CREB and CRTC2, and this system was used to detect the inhibitory activity of Artepillin C in hepatocytes. The results showed that Artepillin C (10 μM) significantly inhibited the binding of CREB to CRTC2, and Artepillin C added again during im...

Abstract

The invention relates to applications of Artepillin C and an analogue thereof in preparing drugs used for preventing metabolic diseases. The extremely excellent effect of Artepillin C or the analogue in preventing metabolic diseases is disclosed for the first time, and multifunctional drugs used for conditioning taking CREB / CRTC2 and SREBP as target spots are provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and more particularly, the invention relates to the application of atpirin C and its analogs in the preparation of medicines for preventing and treating metabolic diseases. Background technique [0002] The liver plays a central role in the regulation of blood glucose processing (including blood glucose absorption, glycogen conversion, and gluconeogenesis and export). Excessive hepatic gluconeogenesis is an important pathology of elevated hepatic glucose output in type 2 diabetes. Correcting the hyperactive hepatic glucose production is beneficial to control the pathogenesis of diabetes and subsequent diseases. Therefore, research on inhibitors targeting hepatic glucose production is of great significance for the control and treatment of metabolic syndrome, including hyperglycemia, obesity and type 2 diabetes. [0003] The efficiency of hepatic gluconeogenesis largely depends on the transcriptional re...
