Enterolacaciamine as a potential O-GlcNAcase activator from the leaves of Enterolobium cyclocarpum.

Enterolacaciamine (1), a new potential O-GlcNAcase activator, along with three known triterpenoid saponins, concinnoside B (2), concinnoside D (3), and julibroside A3 (4) was isolated from the leaves of Enterolobium cyclocarpum. Their structures were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic methods (UV, MS, 1D and 2D NMR). Their effects on O-GlcNAcase activity were evaluated using O-GlcNAcase enzymatic assay.
