Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study comprehensively evaluated the effects of all oral Kampo preparations on the molecular targets in glucose metabolism disorders. As a result,Daiokanzoto, Masiningan, Tokakujokito, Keimakakuhanto and Choijokito exhibited the highest inhibitory activity against protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), a molecular target for insulin-resistant type 2 diabetes mellitus. On the other hand, Shin'iseihaito and Jidabokuippo showed inhibitory activity against advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and aldose reductase (AR) for diabetic complications, respectively. Furthermore,Tsudosan,Daisaiko and Masiningan showed the strongest antioxidant activity.
