Popis: Clams occupy a predominant share of the edible bivalve mollusks in the coastal regions, and are important seafood resources. Antioxidant, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory and antihypertensive potential of ethyl acetate-methanol (EtOAc-MeOH) extract of bivalve clams, Villorita cyprinoides and Paphia malabarica were evaluated using various in vitro systems. EtOAc-MeOH fraction of P. malabarica demonstrated greater 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (0.76 mg/mL) and 2, 2′-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiozoline-6-sulfonic acid (1.27 mg/mL) radical scavenging ability. A greater anti-ACE, anti-COX-2/5-LOX properties (1.11, 0.92 and 1.51 mg/mL, respectively), along with DPP-IV (1.00 mg/mL) and α-glucosidase (1.47 mg/mL) inhibitory activities were recorded in the EtOAc-MeOH fraction of P. malabarica than V. cyprinoides. A significant co-linearity was found between various bioactive properties and the down-fielded electronegative groups present in the 1H-NMR spectra of the crude EtOAc-MeOH fractions of bivalve clams. The current findings showed the importance of the bivalves as potential source of antioxidative leads for use as functional food supplements to combat oxidative stress-induced diseases. Practical Applications The edible bivalve clams, V. cyprinoides and P. malabarica are broadly available in the coastal regions of India and demonstrated to possess a number of bioactivities against different disease targets induced by free radical formation. The EtOAc-MeOH fractions obtained from these bivalve clams recorded the COX-1 and COX-2 ratio of greater than 2.0 compared with NSAIDs (
