In vitro and in vivo inhibitory activity of taxifolin on three digestive enzymes

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
The inhibitory activity of taxifolin on three digestive enzymes were investigated in both vitro and vivo. Taxifolin exhibited inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase, α-amylase and pancreatic lipase with IC50 values of 0.038, 0.647 and 0.993 mg/mL, respectively.

Inhibitory activities of Rubi Fructus on digestive enzymes

Food Science and Biotechnology, 2010
Control of postprandial glucose level is important in the management of diabetes. Thus, carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes have been the targets to delay absorption of glucose. In this study, water extracts of Rubi Fructus (WERF) showed inhibition on both α-glucosidase from baker’s yeast and α-amylase from porcine pancreas.

Characterization of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Activity of X-Hyp-Gly-Type Tripeptides: Importance of Collagen-Specific Prolyl Hydroxylation.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2018
Hydroxyproline (Hyp) is a collagen-specific amino acid formed by post-translational hydroxylation of Pro residues. Various Hyp-containing oligopeptides are transported into the blood at high concentrations after oral ingestion of collagen hydrolysate ...

Screening of African medicinal plants for antimicrobial and enzyme inhibitory activity

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2002
Seven plant species, belonging to different families, were collected in the eastern part of the Republic of Congo (Kivu) based on ethnopharmacological information. Their dichloromethane and methanolic extracts were tested for biological activity. Five of the seven collected plants exhibited antiplasmodial activity with IC(50) values ranging from 1.1 to

Enzyme inhibitory activities of phenolic compounds in pecan and the effect on starch digestion

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2022
Pecan has been widely recognized for its high phenolic content and related health benefits. Previous studies indicated that pecan consumption might be beneficial in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The objective of this study was to investigate the enzyme inhibitory activities of pecan phenolic compounds (PPC) and the effect in starch ...

Inhibitory effect of Cr(VI) on activities of soil enzymes

Journal of Central South University of Technology, 2009
To evaluate the influence of various Cr(VI) concentrations (0.05, 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 g/kg) on the activity of soil enzymes, the activities of catalase, polyphenol oxidase, dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase in soils were investigated in the incubation experiment with a period of 35 d.

Screening of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activities in microalgae

Journal of Applied Phycology, 1989
As part of the investigation on useful constituents in microalgae, we searched for angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activities in water-soluble and fat-soluble fractions of sixteen species and strains. Water-soluble fractions of eleven species and fat-soluble fractions of eight species showed inhibitory activities.
