Popis: | Background Increasing resistance to available drugs and their associated side-effects have drawn wide attention towards designing alternative therapeutic strategies for control of hyperglycemia and oxidative stress. The roles of the sizes and shapes of the nanomaterials used in the treatment and management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in preventing chronic hyperglycaemia and oxidative stress are investigated. We report specifically on the effects of doping silver (Ag) into the ZnO nanorods (ZnO:Ag NR’s) as a rational drug designing strategy. Methods Inhibition of porcine pancreatic α-amylase, murine pancreatic amylase, α-glucosidase, murine intestinal glucosidase and amyloglucosidase are checked for evaluation of antidiabetic potential. In addition, the radical scavenging activities of ZnO:Ag NR’s against nitric oxide, DDPH and superoxide radicals are evaluated. Results Quantitative radical scavenging and metabolic enzyme inhibition activities of ZnO:Ag NR’s at a concentration of 100 μg/mL were found to depend on the amount of Ag doped in up to a threshold level (3–4 %). Circular dichroism analysis revealed that the interaction of the NR’s with the enzymes altered their secondary conformation. This alteration is the underlying mechanism for the potent enzyme inhibition. Conclusions Enhanced inhibition of enzymes and scavenging of free radicals primarily responsible for reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated damage, provide a strong scientific rationale for considering ZnO:Ag NR’s as a candidate nanomedicine for controlling postprandial hyperglycaemia and the associated oxidative stress. |
