Stimulation of pancreatic lipase activity by saponins isolated from Medicago sativa L.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Saponins isolated from Medicago sativa L. appeared to stimulate lipolytic activity and did not influence amylolytic or proteolytic activity of Neopancreatinum (extract of pancreatic enzymes: lipase, proteases and amylases). Saponins isolated from the aerial part of Medicago sativa L. were demonstrated to stimulate lipase activity more effectively than saponins separated from the root of this plant. When saponins were treated with 0.02 M HCl at 37 degrees C for 1 hour their lipase stimulation ability did not change. The saponins stimulated Neopancreatinum lipolytic activity more intensively in the presence of sodium cholate.

Weight gain reduction in mice fed Panax ginseng saponin, a pancreatic lipase inhibitor.
Roots of the herb Panax ginseng are known to contain high levels of bioactive saponins. Here, we isolated saponins from ginseng root powder and studied their inhibitory effect on the absorption of dietary fat in male Balb/c mice. Consumption of ginseng saponins suppressed the expected increase in body weight and plasma triacylglycerols, following a high-fat diet and observed higher intake. Cons...

Background and Objective: β cell replacement therapy by pancreatic islet transplantation has become a promising treatment for type 1 diabetes. Medicago sativa L (Lucerne) from leguminosae family is known to exhibit hypoglycaemic activity both in animal and human studies. Most of these studies were concentrated on the effects of plant extracts on fasting glucose levels. Until now no researches h...

Medicago sativa (lucerne) is used as a traditional plant treatment of diabetes. In the present study, administration of lucerne in the diet (62.5 g/kg) and drinking water (2.5 g/l) reduced the hyperglycaemia of streptozotocin-diabetic mice. An aqueous extract of lucerne (1 mg/ml) stimulated 2-deoxy-glucose transport (1.8-fold), glucose oxidation (1.7-fold) and incorporation of glucose into glyc...

Obesity is a multifactorial disease characterized by an excessive weight for height due to an enlarged fat deposition such as adipose tissue, which is attributed to a higher calorie intake than the energy expenditure. The key strategy to combat obesity is to prevent chronic positive impairments in the energy equation. However, it is often difficult to maintain energy balance, because many avail...

1. The adsorption of bile salts from aqueous solution on the soya-bean flour, wheat bran, fine dry sawdust and lucerne (Medicago sativa) was measured. Adsorption on to the residuum after the first three of these substances had been extracted with organic solvents, pronase or solvents, pronase and acid (to produce lignin) was also measured. 2. The removal of saponins from soya-bean flour did not...
