Implication

In vitro study demonstrates carbohydrate enzyme inhibition by plant extracts, suggesting potential for reducing postprandial glucose in type 2 diabetes.

Key Points

Evaluate the in vitro inhibitory effects of Adiantum caudatum and Celosia argentea extracts and fractions on key carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes.
Assayed extracts and purified fractions of Adiantum caudatum and Celosia argentea in vitro.
Measured inhibitory activity against alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase digestive enzymes.
Fraction 2 of Adiantum caudatum, enriched with triterpenoids and phenolics, demonstrated effective alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase inhibition.
Fraction 4 of Celosia argentea, rich in flavonoids, exhibited potent inhibition against both alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase.
