Comment: Mangiferin is a naturally ocurring compound that has been isolated from plants including Polygala tenuifolia. It has proposed hypoglycemic, antioxidant, an anti-inflammatory activities but information supportive of action at defined molecular targets is limited.
mangiferin has been identified as a competitive inhibitor of aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B (AKR1B1). This may underlie its role in lipid metabolism and lipid dysregulation in pathological conditions such as diabetic neuropathy, that are driven by advanced glycation end products (AGEs); Sharda et al., in review). Docking and molecular dynamics simulations have indicated that mangiferin can bind within the AKR1B1 substrate-binding cavity, and this is supported by biochemical assessment of enzymatic activity and binding affinity studies. ![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
