Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of mushroom extracts. Twelve edible mushrooms, namely Phlebopus colossus (Heim) Singer, Volvariella volvacea, Pleurotus eryngii, Flammulina velutipes, Termitomyces fuliginosus Heim, Russula virescens Fs., Lentinus squarrosulus Mont, Pleurotus ostreatus, Amanita hemibapha subsp. Javanica, Russula emetica, Boletus retisporus and Boletus portentosus were used in this study. Three kinds of solvents were used to prepare the mushroom extracts, namely water, ethanol and hexane. It was found that the aqueous extracts of R. emetica and
B. retisporus showed their alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activities as 35.87 ± 2.29% and 44.37 ± 0.62%, respectively. In addition, the mushroom extracts owned their antioxidant activities as well as high phenolic compound contents. This study indicated the health benefit of these mushrooms especially R. emetica and B. retisporus to inhibit the alpha-glucosidase, which is a key enzyme to digest carbohydrates and release glucose into the bloodstream. Therefore, these edible mushrooms may contribute to inhibit the glucose absorption and maintain blood sugar levels.
