This study investigated the effect of p-methoxycinnamic acid (p-MCA) on plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. In both fasting and glucose-loading conditions, an oral administration of p-MCA (40-100 mg/kg) significantly decreased plasma glucose and also
This study completes the spectroscopic basis for a novel oligosaccharide microanalytical method, wherein a derivatization sequence provides monosaccharide subunits bearing two types of exciton-coupling chromophore groups ("bichromophoric") for circular dichroic spectroscopy, namely 4-bromobenzoate (lambda max 245 nm) and 4-methoxycinnamate (lambda
The microscale analytical method that is being developed in this group for the structure determination of oligosaccharides yields monosaccharide derivatives bearing two types of chromophores suitable for exciton-coupling, namely, 4-bromobenzoate (lambda max 245 nm) and 4-methoxycinnamate (lambda max 311 nm).
We investigated the antihyperglycemic effect of p-methoxycinnamic acid (p-MCA), a cinnamic acid derivative, on plasma glucose and insulin concentrations, activities of hepatic glucose-regulating enzymes and hepatic glycogen content in normal and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. p-MCA (10-100 mg/kg, PO) dose-dependently
