Aspulvinone H
Aspulvinone H is an orally active inhibitor of AChE, pancreatic lipase, glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase 1, and α-glucosidase, with IC50 values of 25.95 μM, 47.06 μM, 5.91/6.91 μM, and 4.6 μM, respectively. It has a Ka of 2.14 μM against GOT1 and a Ki of 6.58 μM against α-glucosidase. Aspulvinone H inhibits cancer cell proliferation, interferes with glutamine metabolism, elevates ROS levels, and induces cell apoptosis and S-phase arrest. Aspulvinone H exhibits antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Aspulvinone H inhibits the growth of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma xenografts. Aspulvinone H reduces postprandial blood glucose in mice. Aspulvinone H can be used in research related to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, diabetes, and Staphylococcus aureus infection.

Biological Activity
Aspulvinone H (Compound 4) moderately inhibits acetylcholinesterase and pancreatic lipase in vitro, with IC50 values of 25.95 μM and 47.06 μM, respectively[1].
Aspulvinone H (Compound 6) inhibits the enzymatic activity of recombinant human GOT1 with IC50 values of 5.91 μM and 6.91 μM, respectively. It also binds directly to GOT1 with a Kd of 2.14 μM[2].
Aspulvinone H (0.1-100 μM; 48 h) selectively inhibits the proliferation of SW1990, PANC-1 and AsPC-1 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells (IC50 6.32-10.47 μM), while exhibits extremely low toxicity to non-malignant HPDE6C7 cells (IC50 >100 μM after 48 h treatment)[2].
Aspulvinone H (10-40 μM) disrupts glutamine metabolism, reduces the NADPH/NADP+ ratio in SW1990 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells, and increases their ROS levels[2].
Aspulvinone H (10-40 μM; 48 h) induces dose-dependent apoptosis and S-phase cell cycle arrest, inhibits cell proliferation, and suppresses migration in a dose- and time-dependent manner in SW1990 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells[2].
Aspulvinone H (Compound 4) (0.1 μM-10 mM; 10 min enzyme incubation, 15 min substrate incubation) potently inhibits α-glucosidase derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae via a mixed-type inhibition mechanism, with an IC50 value of 4.6 μM, and exhibits higher affinity for the free enzyme than for the enzyme-substrate complex[3].
Aspulvinone H (40 μg/disc; 24 h) exhibits antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, producing an 11 mm inhibition zone after incubation at 38 °C for 24 h[4].
