Plant-Derived Control of Postprandial Glycemia: α-Amylase, α-Glucosidase, and the Incretin-DPP-4 Interface

Postprandial hyperglycemia can be modified before absorbed glucose reaches the circulation. Plant-derived compounds may slow starch hydrolysis through α-amylase and intestinal α-glucosidases, stimulate glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) release, or preserve incretin activity through dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibiti...

From Plant Chemistry to Reproducible Antidiabetic Products: A Critical Review of Molecular Targets, Clinical Evidence, and Translational Gaps

Diabetes mellitus results from insulin resistance, progressive pancreatic β-cell dysfunction, dysregulated hepatic and adipose metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Plant-derived compounds can modulate several of these processes, yet pharmacological breadth does not necessarily produce a reproducible therapy....
