Phenolic acids extracted from leaves improved cardiac function and reduced complications of diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy in rats, suggesting potential therapeutic effects against diabetes-related heart problems.
This study synthesized selenium nanoparticles using a plant extract, which showed high purity, antioxidant properties (DPPH scavenging activity), and potential as an antidiabetic agent (inhibiting α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes). The plant extract could be a promising source for nanoparticle synthesis with biomedical applications.
Lawsone methyl ether (LME) and lawsone have strong inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase. In diabetic rats, LME reduces blood glucose, HbA1c, cholesterol, and more, making it a potential option for drug development.
This study found that moist heat treatment of laurel leaf extract increases the concentration of certain beneficial compounds and enhances its antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-Alzheimer's activities.
This study reviewed the compounds in sweet potatoes that contribute to their anti-diabetic activity. Four varieties were identified as having potential anti-diabetic properties. Phenolic acids, flavonols, flavanones, and anthocyanidins are responsible for this activity. The study suggests that sweet potatoes could be effective in treating type 2 diabetes.
This clinical trial examines the effectiveness and safety of okra pod capsules as a treatment for type 2 diabetes and its potential anti-inflammatory effects.
This study investigates the chemical features, active ingredients, and anti-diabetes mechanism of Hippophae rhamnoides fruit. Results provide insights for its traditional use in diabetes treatment.
