Abstract
The novel biochanin A–chromium(III) complex was synthesized by chelating chromium with biochanin A (BCA). The structure of the complex was determined and the complex ([CrBCA3]) was composed of chromium(III) and three ligands, and the chromium content was 55 μg/mg. The hypoglycemic activity of the complex was studied in db/db mice and C57 mice. The sub-acute toxicity test of the complex was carried out by the maximum limit method in KM mice. The hypoglycemic activity showed that the complex could reduce the weight of db/db mice and lower the fasting blood glucose and random blood glucose levels. The complex also improved the organ index, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin tolerance test (ITT) results of db/db mice, and some of the indicators were similar to those of the positive control group after treatment with the complex. The histopathology study showed significant improvements in the liver, kidney, pancreas and skeletal muscle compared with the diabetes model group. The complex also showed a significant improvement in serum biochemical indices and antioxidant enzyme activities, as well as glycogen levels. The sub-acute toxicity study showed that the complex did not cause death or any dangerous symptoms during the study. In addition, the sub-acute toxicity study showed that the complex had no significant effect on the serum biochemical indices, antioxidant capacity and organs of normal mice. This study showed that [CrBCA3] had good hypoglycemic activity in vivo and had no sub-acute toxicity. This work provides an important reference for the development of functional hypoglycemic foods or drugs.
