In this work, a novel series of pyridazine-triazole hybrid molecules were prepared and evaluated as inhibitors of rat intestinal α-glucosidase enzyme. Amongst all newly synthesized compounds, 10k showed good inhibition in the series with IC value of 1.7 µM which is 100 folds stronger than positive control, acarbose.

Article Synopsis
  • Acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid (AKBA) is an anti-inflammatory compound studied for its effectiveness in preventing and treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in male Wistar rats.
  • The study included groups treated with AKBA either during a high fructose diet for 6 weeks or after switching to a normal diet for 2 weeks, analyzing various liver-related parameters and inflammatory markers.
  • Results indicated that AKBA improved liver health indicators and inflammation, supported lipid metabolism, and helped maintain crucial proteins that regulate cellular energy, suggesting it could be a potential treatment for NAFLD.

In this study, we reported the discovery of pyridazine based 1,2,3-triazole derivatives as inhibitors of α-glucosidase. All target compounds exhibited significant inhibitory activities against yeast and rat α-glucosidase enzymes compared to positive control, acarbose. The most potent compound 6j, ethyl 3-(2-(1-(4-nitrobenzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethyl)-5,6-diphenylpyridazine-4-carboxylate exhibited IC values of 58, and 73 µM.
