author keywords: Pu-erh tea extracts; Tea polysaccharides; Antioxidant activity; alpha-Glycosidase; Postprandial hyperglycemia
MeSH headings : Amino Acids / analysis; Animals; Antioxidants / pharmacology; Blood Glucose / analysis; Blood Glucose / drug effects; Caffeine / analysis; Diabetes Mellitus, Experimental; Glycoside Hydrolases / antagonists & inhibitors; Glycoside Hydrolases / metabolism; Hyperglycemia; Linear Models; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred ICR; Plant Extracts / pharmacology; Polyphenols / analysis; Polyphenols / pharmacology; Polysaccharides / analysis; Proteins / analysis; Tea / chemistry
TL;DR: All the extracts showed a significant effect on postprandial hyperglycemia in diabetic mice as compared with a model group, and the suppression of EP was not significantly different from that of acarbose at the same dosage, which indicate that these fractions could be developed as potential anti-diabetic agents.
