The invention relates to a radix astragali and poria cocos
kidney-protecting formula, in particular to a radix astragali and poria cocos
kidney-protecting formula extract for resisting oxidation and assisting in reducing
blood sugar and application of the radix astragali and poria cocos
kidney-protecting formula extract. The radix astragali and poria cocos kidney protecting formula extract is applied to preparation of an
antioxidant or alpha-
glucosidase inhibitor. Although the radix astragali and poria cocos kidney-protecting formula has a
treatment effect on
diabetic nephropathy, experiments find that the radix astragali and poria cocos kidney-protecting formula is relatively weak in
oxidation resistance and relatively weak in alpha-
glucosidase inhibition, namely, the hypoglycemic effect is limited. The invention accidentally finds that the
ethyl acetate part (QLHSF-EA) of the water extract of the radix astragali and poria cocos kidney-protecting formula has good
antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity which is far superior to that of an original formula and a
positive control medicine, and a new application of the extract of the radix astragali and poria cocos kidney-protecting formula is developed. The QLHSF-EA can play a role in resisting oxidation by removing
DPPH free radicals, and play a role in reducing blood glucose by inhibiting alpha-
glucosidase.
