Abstract
Areca catechu L. is a widely cultivated tropical crop in Southeast Asia, and its fruit, areca nut, has been consumed as a traditional Chinese medicinal material for more than 10,000 years, although it has recently attracted widespread attention due to potential hazards. Areca nut holds a significant position in traditional medicine in many areas and ranks first among the four southern medicines in China. Numerous bioactive compounds have been identified in areca nuts, including alkaloids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, and fatty acids, which exhibit diverse bioactive functions, such as anti-bacterial, deworming, anti-viral, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor effects. Furthermore, they also display beneficial impacts targeting the nervous, digestive, and endocrine systems. This review summarizes the pharmacological functions and underlying mechanisms of the bioactive ingredients in areca nut. This helps to ascertain the beneficial components of areca nut, discover its medicinal potential, and guide the utilization of the areca nut.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications are major diseases that affect human health and pose a serious threat to global public health. Although the prevention and treatment of DM and its complications are constantly being revised, optimal treatment strategies remain unavailable. Further exploration of new anti-diabetic strategies is an arduous task. Revealing the pathological changes and molecular mechanisms of DM and its complications is the cornerstone for exploring new therapeutic strategies. Ferroptosis is a type of newly discovered iron-dependent regulated cell death. Notably, the role of ferroptosis in the occurrence, development, and pathogenesis of DM and its complications has gradually been revealed. Numerous studies have shown that ferroptosis plays an important role in the pathophysiology and pathogenesis of DM and its associated complications. The aim of this review is to discuss the known underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis, the relationship between ferroptosis and DM, and the relationship between ferroptosis as a mode of cell death and diabetic kidney disease, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, diabetic osteoporosis, diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction, DM-induced erectile dysfunction, and diabetic atherosclerosis.

Research Progress on the Effect and Mechanism of Tea Products with Different Fermentation Degrees in Regulating Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Foods 2024; 13:221. [PMID: 38254521 PMCID: PMC10814445 DOI: 10.3390/foods13020221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
A popular non-alcoholic beverage worldwide, tea can regulate blood glucose levels, lipid levels, and blood pressure, and may even prevent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Different tea fermentation levels impact these effects. Tea products with different fermentation degrees containing different functional ingredients can lower post-meal blood glucose levels and may prevent T2DM. There are seven critical factors that shed light on how teas with different fermentation levels affect blood glucose regulation in humans. These factors include the inhibition of digestive enzymes, enhancement of cellular glucose uptake, suppression of gluconeogenesis-related enzymes, reduction in the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) activity, modulation of gut flora, and the alleviation of inflammation associated with oxidative stress. Fermented teas can be used to lower post-meal blood glucose levels and can help consumers make more informed tea selections.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic disease that induces many comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, and liver damage. Many mechanisms have been suggested as to how diabetes leads to these comorbidities, of which increased oxidative stress in diabetic patients has been strongly implicated. Limited knowledge of antioxidative antidiabetic drugs and substances that can address diabetic comorbidities through the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway calls for detailed investigation. This review will describe how diabetes increases oxidative stress, the general impact of that oxidative stress, and how oxidative stress primarily contributes to diabetic comorbidities. It will also address how treatments for diabetes, especially focusing on their effects on the Nrf2 antioxidative pathway, have been shown to similarly affect the Nrf2 pathway of the heart, kidney, and liver systems. This review demonstrates that the Nrf2 pathway is a common pathogenic component of diabetes and its associated comorbidities, potentially identifying this pathway as a target to guide future treatments.

Abstract
The type 2 diabetes epidemic is real and hardly coming to an end in the upcoming years. The efforts of the scientific community to develop safer and more effective compounds for type 2 diabetes based on the structure of natural (poly)phenols are remarkable and have indeed proven worthwhile after the introduction of gliflozins in clinical practice. However, low-quality reports on the antidiabetic potential of plant-derived lipophilic (poly)phenols continue to pile up in the literature. Many of these compounds continue to be published as promising functional nutrients and antidiabetic pharmaceutical leads without consideration of their Pan-Assay Interference Compounds (PAINS) profile. This evidence-based opinion article conveys the authors' perspectives on the natural (poly)phenol artillery as a valuable and reliable source of bioactive compounds for diabetes. Ultimately, in light of the already established membrane-perturbing behavior of lipophilic (poly)phenols, together with the multiple benefits that may come with the introduction of a C-glucosyl moiety in bioactive compounds, we aim to raise awareness of the importance of contemplating the shift to (poly)phenol-carbohydrate combinations in the development of functional nutrients, as well as in the early stages of antidiabetic drug discovery.

Abstract
Abstract
Among various diseases in humans, diabetes is one of the most complicated disorders resulting either from the malfunctioning of β cells, causing a poor discharge of insulin from them, or poor functioning of the liberated insulin. A wide array of chemical compounds so-called secondary metabolites are present in plants. These phytochemicals are produced as by-products of metabolism and play a key role in plant protection. However, in humans, they offer several beneficial functions. Polyphenols are an important class of phytochemicals and apart from fruits, they are also found in their major wastes mainly including the peel, pomace, and seed. The current review is aimed to focus on the potential sources, distribution, and extraction/isolation of polyphenols from major fruit wastes along with highlighting their medicinal and therapeutic benefits, especially in the management of diabetes.

Mitigation of Paeoniae Radix Alba extracts on H 2O 2-induced oxidative damage in HepG2 cells and hyperglycemia in zebrafish, and identification of phytochemical constituents. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1135759. [PMID: 36908919 PMCID: PMC9995737 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1135759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Paeoniae Radix Alba (PRA), as a Traditional Chinese Medicine, is widely used in Chinese cuisine due to high health-benefits and nutrition, but the effect of different polarity of solvents on the extraction of antioxidant and hypoglycemic constituents, as well as the major active compounds remain unclear. In this research, 40, 70, and 95% ethanol were firstly applied to extract the polyphenols from PRA, the extraction yields, total phenolics, and total flavonoids content, free radical scavenging ability, α-glucosidase inhibition ability, and anti-glycation ability of extracts were evaluated spectroscopically. The oxidative damage protection, hypoglycemic activity, and alleviation on peripheral nerve damage were evaluated by H2O2-induced HepG2 cells and hyperglycemic zebrafish models. UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS was used to identify the major chemical constituents. The results showed that 40, 70, and 95% ethanol exhibited insignificant difference on the extraction of phenolics and flavonoids from PRA. All extracts showed promising DPPH⋅ and ABTS⋅+ scavenging ability, α-glucosidase inhibition and anti-glycation ability. In addition, PRA extracts could restore the survival rate of HepG2 cells induced by H2O2, and alleviate the oxidative stress by reducing the content of MDA and increasing the levels of SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px. The 70% ethanol extract could also mitigate the blood glucose level and peripheral motor nerve damage of hyperglycemic zebrafish. Thirty-five compounds were identified from 70% ethanol extract, gallotannins, gallic acid and its derivatives, and paeoniflorin and its derivatives were the dominant bioactive compounds. Above results could provide important information for the value-added application of PRA in functional food and medicinal industry.

Integrated metabolite analysis and health-relevant in vitro functionality of white, red, and orange maize ( Zea mays L.) from the Peruvian Andean race Cabanita at different maturity stages. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1132228. [PMID: 36925963 PMCID: PMC10011086 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1132228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The high maize (Zea mays L.) diversity in Peru has been recognized worldwide, but the investigation focused on its integral health-relevant and bioactive characterization is limited. Therefore, this research aimed at studying the variability of the primary and the secondary (free and dietary fiber-bound phenolic, and carotenoid compounds) metabolites of three maize types (white, red, and orange) from the Peruvian Andean race Cabanita at different maturity stages (milk-S1, dough-S2, and mature-S3) using targeted and untargeted methods. In addition, their antioxidant potential, and α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities relevant for hyperglycemia management were investigated using in vitro models. Results revealed a high effect of the maize type and the maturity stage. All maize types had hydroxybenzoic and hydroxycinnamic acids in their free phenolic fractions, whereas major bound phenolic compounds were ferulic acid, ferulic acid derivatives, and p-coumaric acid. Flavonoids such as luteolin derivatives and anthocyanins were specific in the orange and red maize, respectively. The orange and red groups showed higher phenolic ranges (free + bound) (223.9-274.4 mg/100 g DW, 193.4- 229.8 mg/100 g DW for the orange and red maize, respectively) than the white maize (162.2-225.0 mg/100 g DW). Xanthophylls (lutein, zeaxanthin, neoxanthin, and a lutein isomer) were detected in all maize types. However, the orange maize showed the highest total carotenoid contents (3.19-5.87 μg/g DW). Most phenolic and carotenoid compounds decreased with kernel maturity in all cases. In relation to the primary metabolites, all maize types had similar fatty acid contents (linoleic acid > oleic acid > palmitic acid > α-linolenic acid > stearic acid) which increased with kernel development. Simple sugars, alcohols, amino acids, free fatty acids, organic acids, amines, and phytosterols declined along with grain maturity and were overall more abundant in white maize at S1. The in vitro functionality was similar among Cabanita maize types, but it decreased with the grain development, and showed a high correlation with the hydrophilic free phenolic fraction. Current results suggest that the nutraceutical characteristics of orange and white Cabanita maize are better at S1 and S2 stages while the red maize would be more beneficial at S3.

Abstract
In the present study aqueous leaf extract of Strobilanthes cordifolia J.R.I.Wood was combined with silver nitrate to synthesis silver nanoparticles (AgNPs).The AgNPs was Characterized using visible spectroscopy (UV), X-ray diffraction(XRD), fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDaX), particle size analysis and transmission electron microscope (TEM).The UV spectrum absorption peak occurred at 438nm. The FTIR analysis of the AgNPs indicated the presence of functional groups such as aldehyde, alkenes and carboxylic acids.The crystalline structure of AgNPs was confirmed by XRD. The AgNPs have a spherical shape according to SEM. The AgNPs components composition was confirmed by EDaX.The particle size distribution of AgNPs is monodispersion in the range at 42.54nm.TEM demonstrated that the AgNPs size to be between 11.35-34.90nm.The AgNPs exhibited good antibacterial against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The antioxidant activity of the AgNPs was represented by increased DPPH, ABTS and H2 O2 activities.The antidiabetic activity of the AgNPs was indicated by the inhibition of α-amylase and α-glycosidase and anti-inflammatory highest albumin denaturation and HRBC membrane stabilization properties. Further, the AgNPs also significantly inhibited the MCF-7 cell lines. These results clearly suggest that the synthesized AgNPs using S. cordifolia leaves could have several potential biomedical applications. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
The pericarp of mangosteen, a by-product of the mangosteen, is rich in polyphenols. In this study, an efficient and environmentally friendly method for preparative enrichment of polyphenols from mangosteen pericarp (MPPs) was developed, and the inhibitory effects on starch digestion were also evaluated. It was found that the optimal extract method of MPPs was at a solid to solvent ratio of 1:50 g/mL, pH of 2, and at 80 °C for 2 h. The IC50 of MPPs for α-amylase was 0.28 mg/mL. Based on the fluorescence quenching results, we presumed that MPPs could alter the natural structure of α-amylase, resulting in inhibitory activity on α-amylase. In addition, MPPs significantly reduced the blood glucose peak and AUC of glucose responses in rats after ingestion of the starch solution. Taken together, MPPs may have the potential as a functional supplement for blood glucose control and diabetes prevention.

Alhakamy NA, Mohamed GA, Fahmy UA, Eid BG, Ahmed OAA, Al-Rabia MW, Khedr AIM, Nasrullah MZ, Ibrahim SRM. New Alpha-Amylase Inhibitory Metabolites from Pericarps of Garcinia mangostana. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12030384. [PMID: 35330135 PMCID: PMC8950244 DOI: 10.3390/life12030384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2022] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Two new benzophenones: garcimangophenones A (6) and B (7) and five formerly reported metabolites were purified from the pericarps EtOAc fraction of Garcinia mangostana ((GM) Clusiaceae). Their structures were characterized by various spectral techniques and by comparing with the literature. The α-amylase inhibitory (AAI) potential of the isolated metabolites was assessed. Compounds 7 and 6 had significant AAI activity (IC50 9.3 and 12.2 µM, respectively) compared with acarbose (IC50 6.4 µM, reference α-amylase inhibitor). On the other hand, 5 had a moderate activity. Additionally, their activity towards the α-amylase was assessed utilizing docking studies and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The docking and predictive binding energy estimations were accomplished using reported crystal structure of the α-amylase (PDB ID: 5TD4). Compounds 7 and 6 possessed highly negative docking scores of −11.3 and −8.2 kcal/mol, when complexed with 5TD4, respectively while acarbose had a docking score of −16.1 kcal/mol, when complexed with 5TD4. By using molecular dynamics simulations, the compounds stability in the complexes with the α-amylase was analyzed, and it was found to be stable over the course of 50 ns. The results suggested that the benzophenone derivative 7 may be potential α-amylase inhibitors. However, further investigations to support these findings are required.
