Antiglycemic and Antioxidant Activity of Terminalia chebula Fruits Protein

Terminalia chebula fruits proteins antidiabetic activities were studied in in vitro model. Using appropriate standard methods were used to quantify the phytochemicals present in Terminalia chebula fruits extract. The results revealed that, the extract rich with proteins when compared to other phyto chemicals. The DPPH model was used for the analysis of antioxidant activity of the crude proteins. The alpha amylase enzyme, alpha glucosidases enzyme inhibition activity and Glucose uptake in Yeast cells studies were done to check the antiglycemic activity. These results revealed that, the crude protein showed antidiabetic activity. This potential pharmacological activity of proteins might be due to the presence of proteins
