MATERIALS AND METHODS
70% acetone berry extracts of 16 Sorbus species were tested in vitro for inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase. Single berry extracts were analysed by 1H-NMR spectroscopy and principal component analysis to evaluate the chemical profiles of the extracts. The anti-hyperglycaemic effect was evaluated in an oral starch tolerance test in STZ-treated C57BL/6 mice.RESULTS
The lowest IC50 values against α-amylase and α-glucosidase were obtained with the Sorbus species belonging to the subspecies Aria, which have simple leaves compared to pinnately compound leaves of the other Sorbus species. Species belonging to subspecies Aria grouped together and away from the other Sorbus species in the score plot, indicating a difference in chemistry. Both the carbohydrate- and polyphenol-fraction contributed to the enzyme inhibition. Extract of the most active species, S. norvegica, had anti-hyperglycaemic activity, at a level 36 times lower than clinically used acarbose, corresponding to a needed daily dose of 900 mg extract.
