Abstract

Nowadays use of plant derived natural compounds have become a topic of increasing interest in food and medicine industries due to their multitude of biological and therapeutic properties. In this study, a diterpenoid compound sugiol, isolated from Metasequoia glyptostroboideswas evaluated for α-glucosidase and tyrosinase inhibitory efficacy in terms of its potent anti-diabetic and anti-melanogenesis potential, respectively. As a result, sugiol at the concentration range of (100-10,000 µg/mL) and (20-500 µg/mL) showed potent efficacy on inhibiting α-glucosidase and tyrosinase enzymes in vitro ranging from 12.34-63.47% and 28.22-67.43%, respectively. These findings confirm the therapeutic potential of diterpenoid compound sugiol from M. glyptostroboides as a novel candidate for using in food and medicine industry which may have practical potential to cure skin and diabetes mellitus type-2 related disorders.
