Abstract
Inhibition of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formed in protein glycosylation is crucial for minimizing diabetic complications. Herein, the anti-glycation potential of hesperetin-Cu (II) complex was investigated. Hesperetin-Cu (II) complex strongly inhibited three stages glycosylation products in bovine serum albumin (BSA)-fructose model, especially for the inhibition of AGEs (88.45%), which was stronger than hesperetin (51.76%) and aminoguanidine (22.89%). Meanwhile, hesperetin-Cu (II) complex decreased the levels of BSA carbonylation and oxidation products. 182.50 µg/mL of hesperetin-Cu (II) complex inhibited 66.71% β-crosslinking structures of BSA, and scavenged 59.80% superoxide anions and 79.76% hydroxyl radicals. Moreover, after incubating with methylglyoxal for 24 h, hesperetin-Cu (II) complex removed 85.70% methylglyoxal. The mechanisms of protein antiglycation by hesperetin-Cu (II) complex may be through protecting structure, trapping methylglyoxal, scavenging free radicals and interacting with BSA. This study may contribute to the development of hesperetin-Cu (II) complex as a functional food additive against protein glycation.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 225:318-350. [PMID: 36400215 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.11.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, results in significant disease burden and financial costs globally. Whilst the majority of T2D cases seem to have a genetic basis, non-genetic modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for T2D include obesity, diet, physical activity and lifestyle, smoking, age, ethnicity, and mental stress. In healthy individuals, insulin secretion from pancreatic islet β-cells is responsible for keeping blood glucose levels within normal ranges. T2D patients suffer from multifactorial onset of β-cell dysfunction and/or loss of β-cell mass owing to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial dysfunction, autophagy, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Most predominantly however, and the focus of this review, it is the aggregation and misfolding of human Islet Amyloid Polypeptide (hIAPP, also known as amylin), which is detrimental to β-cell function and health. Whilst hIAPP is found in healthy individuals, its misfolded version is cytotoxic and able to induce β-cell dysfunction and/or death through various mechanisms including membrane changes in β-cell causing influx of calcium ions, arresting complete granule membrane recovery and ER stress. There are several existing therapeutics for T2D. However, there is a need for alternative or adjunct therapies for T2D with milder adverse effects and greater availability. Foremost among the potential natural therapeutics are polyphenols. Extensive data from studies evaluating the potential of polyphenols to inhibit hIAPP aggregation and disassemble aggregated hIAPP are promising. Moreover, in-vivo, and in-silico studies also highlight the potential effects of polyphenols against hIAPP aggregation and mitigation of larger pathological effects of T2D. Whilst there have been some promising clinical studies on the therapeutic potential of polyphenols, extensive further clinical studies and in-vitro studies evaluating the mechanisms of action and ideal doses for many of these compounds are required. The need for these studies is made more important by the postulated link between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and T2D pathophysiology given the similar aggregation process of their respective amyloid proteins, which evokes thoughts of cross-reactive polyphenols which can be effective for both AD and T2D patients.

Abstract
Apigenin is a flavonoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic activity. In this study, the potential effects of apigenin on cardiometabolic diseases were investigated in vivo and in vitro. Potential signaling networks in different cell types induced by apigenin were identified, suggesting that the molecular mechanisms of apigenin in cardiometabolic diseases vary with cell types. Additionally, the mechanisms of apigenin-induced biological response in different cardiometabolic diseases were analyzed, including obesity, diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. This review provides novel insights into the potential role of apigenin in cardiometabolic diseases.

Spinach Methanolic Extract Attenuates the Retinal Degeneration in Diabetic Rats. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10050717. [PMID: 34063668 PMCID: PMC8147642 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10050717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 04/28/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
It has been suggested that spinach methanolic extract (SME) inhibits the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which are increased during diabetes progression, so it is important to know if SME has beneficial effects in the diabetic retina. In this study, in vitro assays showed that SME inhibits glycation, carbonyl groups formation, and reduced-thiol groups depletion in bovine serum albumin incubated either reducing sugars or methylglyoxal. The SME effect in retinas of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats (STZ) was also studied (n = 10) in the normoglycemic group, STZ, STZ rats treated with SME, and STZ rats treated with aminoguanidine (anti-AGEs reference group) during 12 weeks. The retina was sectioned and immunostained for Nε-carboxymethyl lysine (CML), receptor RAGE, NADPH-Nox4, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), 3-nitrotyrosine (NT), nuclear NF-κB, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), S100B protein, and TUNEL assay. Lipid peroxidation was determined in the whole retina by malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. The results showed that in the diabetic retina, SME reduced the CML-RAGE co-localization, oxidative stress (NOX4, iNOS, NT, MDA), inflammation (NF-κB, VEGF, S100B, GFAP), and apoptosis (p < 0.05). Therefore, SME could attenuate the retinal degeneration by inhibition of CML-RAGE interaction.

Abstract
Inhibition of α-glucosidase and non-enzymatic glycation is considered as an effective approach to treat type 2 diabetes. Herein, multispectroscopic techniques and molecular docking analysis were used to investigate the inhibition of galangin on α-glucosidase and non-enzymatic glycation. Galangin showed a reversible inhibition on α-glucosidase activity in a mixed-type manner through a monophasic kinetic process, and induced the fluorescence quenching and conformational changes of α-glucosidase by forming α-glucosidase-galgangin complex. Molecular docking revealed that galangin primarily interacted with the amino acid residues within the active site of α-glucosidase, which may prevent the entrance of substrate resulting in a decrease in catalytic efficiency of α-glucosidase. Moreover, galangin moderately inhibited the formation of intermediates of non-enzymatic glycation, fructosamine and α-dicarbonyl compounds and strongly inhibited the formation of advanced glycation end products.

Abstract
It is important to investigate the inhibition of α-glucosidase due to its correlation with type 2 diabetes. Morin was found to exert significant inhibition activity on α-glucosidase in a reversible mixed-type manner with an IC50 value of (4.48 ± 0.04) μM. Analyses of fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra indicated that the formation of the morin-α-glucosidase complex was driven mainly by hydrophobic forces and hydrogen bonding, and caused the conformational changes of α-glucosidase. The phase diagrams of fluorescence showed that the conformational change process was monophasic without intermediates. Molecular docking indicated that morin mainly interacted with amino acid residues located close to the active site of α-glucosidase, which may move to cover the active pocket to reduce the binding of the substrate and then inhibit the catalytic activity. Morin was also found to exhibit inhibition in the generation of advanced glycation end products which was related to the long term complications of diabetes.
