Screening of phenolic compounds reveals inhibitory activity of nordihydroguaiaretic acid against three enzymes involved in the regulation of blood glucose level
In this work we have focused on the inhibition of three different enzymes with a role in postprandial glucose management: alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase and dipeptidyl peptidase 4. The assortment ...of 29 monomeric phenolic compounds was first screened at a single concentration. Next, the IC50 values of tested compounds were evaluated for compounds that considerably inhibited any of the enzymes. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid, a phenolic compound abundant in Creosote bush Larrea tridentata, possessed inhibitory activity for all tested enzymes. This in vitro mechanism of action supports traditional use of Creosote bush in diabetes treatment.
