Computer-designed pyrimidine-oxazole compounds as new diabetes treatments: reaction speed and molecule interaction studies

Updated

Abstract

The most potent compound, analog 8, demonstrates an IC of 5.20 ± 0.10 μM against α-amylase.

  • Diabetes mellitus is characterized by high blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin production or cellular unresponsiveness to insulin.
  • Symptoms of diabetes include blurry vision, excessive urination, and slow healing sores, with potential severe complications if untreated.
  • Novel pyrimidine-based oxazole derivatives were synthesized and assessed for anti-diabetic activity.
  • These derivatives exhibited moderate to excellent inhibitory effects against α-amylase and α-glucosidase, with analog 8 showing the strongest activity.
  • Molecular docking and simulations were conducted to evaluate the enzyme inhibition potential and structural stability of the compounds.
  • ADMET analysis indicated that these compounds have no toxicological effects.
