Inhibitory effects of aqueous extract of Eremurus spectabilis M. Bieb. on diabetes mellitus and skin related enzymes

Background and Aims: Nutritional bioactive natural ingredients isolated from wild edible plants, with promising effects against diabetes and/or diabetes-related diseases continue to be investigated. There is increasing interest in these substances due their protective/therapeutic potential. The purpose of the present study investigate inhibitory potential aqueous extract Eremurus spectabilis M. Bieb. on mellitus skin-related enzymes. Methods: Fresh E. leaves were obtained a local market Eyup/İstanbul, Turkey was prepared. Inhibitory activities this plant α-amylase, α-glucosidase, elastase, hyaluronidase, tyrosinase examined. Results: showed effective inhibitor activity both α-amylase α-glucosidase as compared acarbose. On other hand, exhibited moderate elastase. Whereas, it weak effect hyaluronidase when respective standard inhibitors. Conclusion: current findings suggest that consumption may benefit for regulation postprandial blood glucose, shown by strongly inhibiting action its α-glucosidase. In addition, might beneficial disorders, because elastase activity.
