Introduction: Herbal medicine has become a well-chosen treatment to reduce the negative effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) and its serious complications due to its side effects and low cost. Material and Methods: Plants of the Zingiberaceae family, for example, Boesenbergia rotunda, Renealmia alpinia, and Zingiber zerumbet have been extensively investigated for their phytoconstituents and molecular mechanisms. This study aims to examine the price for tramadol
molecular interactions that exist between the various bioactive chemicals in B. rotunda and that targeted proteins associated with type 2 DM. Molecular docking studies were done to assess the binding mode and interactions of synthesized hits at binding site of receptors. Results: Results of in silico studies showed that polyphenols and flavonoids have excellent drug-likeness properties, pharmacokinetic profile against DM targets such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), and α-glucosidase. Molecular docking results highlighted five of top 10 interactions correspond to pinocembrin, alpinetin, and pinostrobin with DPP4, α-glucosidase, and PPARG; pinocembrin and silybin with PPARG. These proteins involved in regulating the functions such as inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, glucose, and lipid metabolism. Conclusion: This work provides a cheapest tramadol dynamic state of B. rotunda, especially flavonoids that show their diabetic benefits.
