Mulberry is fast growing deciduous woody perennial plant. It has a deep root system. The leaves are simple, alternate, stipulate, petiolate, entire or lobed. Mulberry leaf is considered as a nice herb in the ancient China for anti-inflammation, anti-aging and maintaining health. Mulberry leaf is rich in amino acids, vitamin C and antioxidants. The active ingredient are Mulberry Leaf flavone and Mulberry Leaf polysaccharide. The most valuable components are Rutoside and DNJ, which are effective in regulating blood fat, balancing blood pressure, reducing blood glucose, and boosting metabolism, so they are widely used as raw materials for curing diabetes.
Deoxynojirimycin, hereinafter referred to as DNJ, is a powerfulα-glucosidaseinhibitors.After being absorbed by human body, it could inhibit the activity of invertase, maltose enzyme, α-glucosidaseand α-amylase enzyme, reduce absorption of carbohydrate digestion and glucose, reduce blood sugar,and its hypoglycemic activity is better than sulfonylureas, and its side effects, such as hypoglycemia, is much more less than other hypoglycemic drugs, it also has a good safety; besides, this product has little influence on the normal eating.In addition, DNJ also has significant antiretroviral activity, it could inhibit tumor metastasis and be used as a carrier for the synthesis of high pure maltose.
