Matoa (Pometia pinnata J.R. Forst. & G. Forst.) Matoa (Pometia pinnata J.R. Forst. & G. Forst.) is one of the plants that is used as a traditional medicine for diabetes mellitus due to an imbalance between the amount of ROS and antioxidants in the body. Therefore, it was carried out in vitro to see the antioxidant and antidiabetic activity in matoa leaf extract. The extraction of matoa leaves was carried out using the ultrasonication method for 30 minutes with methanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate as solvents. Antioxidant activity is release through DPPH free radical inhibition, through the antidiabetic potential released by inhibiting the work of the α-amylase enzyme. Phytochemical test results showed the presence of secondary metabolites in the form of flavonoids, polyphenols, tannins, alkaloids, and terpenoids. The results of the research on methanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate extracts of matoa leaves showed high antioxidant activity with IC50 values of 6.416 ± 0.176 ppm, 8.622 ± 0.066 ppm, and 170.637 ± 4.441 ppm, respectively, but they were less potent than vitamin C as a comparison which is 1.646 ± 0.015 ppm. Inhibition of the α-amylase enzyme showed IC50 values of 91.037 ± 0.750 ppm, 105,166 ± 2,423 ppm, and 785,436 ± 11,740 ppm in each of the methanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate extracts while the IC50 value of acarbose as a comparison was 23,479 ± 0.347 ppm. The statistical data analysis of Pearson correlation showed that it had a positive relationship between the antioxidant and antidiabetic activity of matoa leaf extract as seen from the R-value of 0.998. The higher antioxidant activity, so the higher potential for inhibition of α-amylase enzyme.

Abstract Background This study evaluated the in vitro antioxidant activity and comparison of anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activity of Harpagopytum zeyheri with diclofenac. Methods In vitro assays were conducted using water, ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts of H.zeyheri. The antioxidant activity was evaluated using the 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazy (DPPH) and 2,2'- azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS)assays. The anti-inflammatory activity was determined by measuring the inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 mouse macrophages as well as cytokine (TNF-α and IL-10) expression on LPS-induced U937 human macrophages. For cytotoxicity, cell viability was determined using the 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Results The ethyl acetate extract had the lowest IC50 values in the DPPH (5.91µg/ml) and ABTS (20.5µg/ml) assay compared to other extracts. Furthermore, the ethyl acetate extracts effectively inhibited NO and TNF-α and proved to be comparable to diclofenac at some concentrations. All extracts of H. zeyheri displayed dose dependent activity and were associated with low levels of human-IL-10 expression compared to quercetin. Furthermore, all extracts displayed low toxicity relative to diclofenac. Conclusions These findings show that H. zeyheri has significant antioxidant activity. Additionally, similarities exist in inflammatory activity of H. zeyheri to diclofenac at some concentrations as well as low toxicity in comparison to diclofenac.

Background: Schinus molle L. is a medicinal and aromatic plant widely used in folk medicine commonly found in Algeria and Mediterranean region. In the present work, we investigated the in vitro antioxidant, anti-cholinesterase, αglucosidase inhibitory and photoprotective potentials of the Schinus molle L. plant’s extract/fractions. The metabolite profile of Schinus molle L. was analyzed using RP-HPLC and GC-MS. Methods: Antioxidant activity was assessed using different tests. Anticholinesterase activity was investigated by quantifying the acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activities. Antidiabetic activity was investigated by αglucosidase inhibition test, whereas photoprotective activity was evaluated by sun protection factor (SPF) using spectrophotometry UV-Vis. The extracts were then submitted to RP-HPLC–PDA and GC–MS analysis. Results: Ethyl acetate and buthanol fractions with high contents of total phenolics and flavonoids exhibited the strongest antioxidant activity. Ethyl acetate extract exhibited considerable enzyme inhibition potential on acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase and α-glucosidase with percentages of inhibition of 99.08 ± 0.79 %, 100 % and 98.80 ± 0.18 % respectively. Furthermore, the ethyl acetate fraction showed high photoprotective activity with the sun protection factor (SPF) value = 38,26 ± 0.73. Three phenolic acids (gallic, tannic and vanillic acids) and five flavonoids (myricetin, apigenin, naringenin, rutin and quercetin) were identified with RP-HPLC–PDA. Conclusion: These findings suggest that Schinus molle L. may be useful in the development of an alternative agent for oxidative stress, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes and could be used as a natural sunscreen in pharmaceutics or cosmetic formulations.

Objective: Diabetes mellitus is a highly prevalent chronic disease in Egypt leading to high socioeconomic problems, especially in the cities due to the unhealthy life style. Although many drugs are available, they have many side effects. Furthermore, the body arouses resistance after a while for the drug so it should be changed every once in a while. Plants could be a good source for drugs. In Egypt, we have a rich flora which has not been subjected to systematic screening for antidiabetic activity.Methods: The aim of this work was to screen 264 plant extracts for their in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Those extracts which gave more than 70% inhibition were screened on different concentrations and their inhibitory concentrations giving 50% activity (IC50) were calculated.Results: Out of all the tested extracts, 63 gave more than or equal 70% inhibition on α-glucosidase at the tested concentration (25 ppm). After the calculation of the IC50 values, 10 extracts were chosen for further study having 5 ppm and less IC50.Conclusion: The most active plant extract is Pinus roxburghii Sarg. branches (IC50 is 2.47 ppm).
