绿茶降糖作用机制的研究

给糖尿病大鼠口服蔗糖或淀粉和绿茶提取物后,观察其对糖尿病大鼠糖耐量及血胰岛素的影响,并用比色法测定对α-葡萄糖苷酶(EC 3.2.1.20)和α-淀粉酶(EC 3.2.1.1)的抑制活性,用快速过滤法观察对兔小肠刷状缘囊泡葡萄糖转运活性的影响.结果表明,绿茶提取物明显改善蔗糖或淀粉负荷糖尿病大鼠的血糖水平.绿茶提取物显示较强的α-葡萄糖苷酶抑制活性,其α-葡萄糖苷酶的半抑制浓度(IC50)值为0.13g/L;对α-淀粉酶的抑制活性则较弱,浓度为1g/L时,其对α-淀粉酶的抑制率为21%.绿茶提取物同时明显降低兔小肠刷状缘囊泡葡萄糖转运能力,其半抑制浓度(IC50)值为3.5g/L.提示,绿茶可延缓小肠对糖的消化吸收,经常食用可能有助于延缓餐后血糖的持续升高.

Study on Hypoglycemic Mechanisms of Green Tea

Oral glucose tolerances and blood insulin levels of diabetic rats were observed after the intake of sucrose or starch with green tea extract. The inhibitory activities of green tea extract against alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) and alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) were then assayed by colorimetric method, while the glucose uptake into brush border membrane vehicles was determined by rapid filtration method. The results showed that the green tea extract significantly improves the glucose tolerance after sucrose or starch intake in diabetic rats. Green tea extract administration showed that the potent alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 value is 0.13 g/L; but the inhibition effect of green tea extract on alpha-amylase is rather low, with the inhibitory activity about 21% at the concentration of 1 g/L. Green tea extract also significantly decreases glucose transport potency of brush border membrane vehicle of rabbit small intestine with IC50 value as 3.5 g/L. It is suggested that the green tea in general, would inhibit carbohydrate digestion and absorption into small intestine, so as to be physiologically useful for suppressing postprandial hyperglycemia.
