EFFECT OF OLIGOSACCHARIDES ON ENZYMES OF CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM AND ANTIOXIDANT PROTECTION IN IN VITRO TREATED ERYTHROCYTES UNDER CONDITIONS OF HYPERGLYCEMIA

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to examine the effect of different oligosaccharides with proven prebiotic effects on enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism and the antioxidant protection of erythrocytes in vitro under conditions of hyperglycemia. Materials and methods: This experiment included 10 healthy men (27±3 years of age). The isolated erythrocytes were treated with 1% and 5% solutions of the following oligosaccharides: lactulose, inulin, galactooligosaccharide and fructooligosaccharide in the presence of 5mM, 50mM and 100mM glucose. After incubation, for 2 hours at 37 °C, the erythrocytes were lysed, and the supernatant was used for analyses of lactate dehydrogenase, hexokinase and glutathione reductase. FRAP (Ferric reducing antioxidant power) method was used for determining the total antioxidant activity of erythrocytes. Results: Lactate dehydrogenase was decreased in the presence of 5% lactulose in groups with 50mM and 100 mM Glc. An increase in the activity of glutathione reductase under severe hyperglycemia (100mM glucose) was observed after treatment with: 1% lactulose, 1% inulin, 1% galactooligosaccharide, 1% and 5% fructooligosaccharides (p<0.005). A significant difference in the enzymatic activity of hexokinase was found in all groups (p<0.05) and of glutathione reductase only in the control group as well as in the groups treated with 1% lactulose, 1% galactooligosaccharide, 1% and 5% fructooligosaccharides Conclusions: Galactooligosaccharides 1% and fructooligosaccharides 1% and 5% cause a statistically significant increase of the enzymatic activities of hexokinase and glutathione reductase in in vitro hyperglycemia induced by 100 mM glucose, as well as an increase in FRAP.
