Effect of Betula pendula Leaf Extract on alpha-Glucosidase and Glutathione Level in Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress
Abstract
Ethanolic and aqueous Betula pendula leaf extracts, used traditionally for diabetes in southeastern Europe, inhibited the carbohydrate-hydrolysing enzyme alpha-glucosidase and restored glutathione under glucose-induced oxidative stress, supporting an antidiabetic and antioxidant action.
