Exploring inhibitory mechanism of gallocatechin gallate on a-amylase and a-glucosidase relevant to postprandial hyperglycemia

The postprandial hyperglycemia of diabetic patients is associated with a-amylase and a-glucosidase, searching safer enzyme inhibitors and deciphering their inhibition mechanism are important. In this study, gallocatechin gallate (GCG) was found to exert strong inhibition on α-amylase and α-glucosida...
