Background: Inhibition of α-glucosidase activity is recognized as an effective strategy for managing type 2 diabetes. Methods: The inhibitory mechanisms two kinds mulberry flavonoids, namely sanggenone D and kuwanon G, on were investigated the hypoglycemic pathways explored in current study. Results: outcomes indicate that (IC50: 4.51 × 10−5 mol/L) G 3.83 inhibited by non-competition/anti-competition mixed inhibition competitive inhibition, respectively. Moreover, secondary structure was altered static quenching exhibited a decrease α-helix β-antiparallel content, increase β-sheet content. Furthermore, interaction forces between D/kuwanon hydrophobic interactions hydrogen bonds, evidenced molecular docking. binding affinity, stability, energy aligned with results IC50. Notably, cyclization resulted number phenolic hydroxyl groups thus reduction formation which ultimately diminished affinity to α-glucosidase. In addition, Western blot analysis further indicated regulated glucose metabolism activating GLUT4 pathway. Conclusions: provided useful reference application functional components.
