ABSTRACT
Glucose, the predominant carbohydrate in the human body, initiates nonenzymatic reactions in hyperglycemia, potentially leading to adverse biochemical interactions. This study investigates the interaction between glucose and Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), along with the protective effects of Spirulina platensis PCC 7345 aqueous extract. Phycobiliproteins (phycocyanin, phycoerythrin, and allophycocyanin) in the extract were quantified using spectrophotometry. The extract's anti-glycation potential was assessed by analyzing its effects on albumin glycation, fluorescent advanced glycation end products (AGEs), thiol group oxidation, and ß-amyloid structure generation. Additionally, its antidiabetic potential was evaluated by measuring α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition. Results indicate that the Spirulina extract significantly mitigated ketoamine levels, fluorescence, and protein-carbonyl production induced by glucose, demonstrating a 67.81 % suppression of AGE formation after 28â
days. Moreover, it effectively inhibited amyloid formation in BSA cross-linkages. These findings suggest the potential of S. platensis as an anti-glycation and antidiabetic agent, supporting its consideration for dietary inclusion to manage diabetes and associated complications.
