description | ABSTRACTAgarwood (Aquilaria crassna) leaves are commonly used as an herbal tea for health supplements. The present study aims to develop the post-harvest process of agarwood leaves using yeast extract (YE) as an elicitor and evaluate its anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic effects. The results showed that 1% of YE elicitation for 120 min significantly increased genkwanin 5-O-β-primevoside (1.8-fold), mangiferin (1.3-fold), and total benzophenones (1.2-fold) contents over the control group. The phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity increased in maximal at 30 min after YE treatment. The agarwood leaf elicitation with 1% YE for 120 min showed a higher anti-inflammation effect by down-regulation of iNOS, IL-6, and COX-2 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and an anti-diabetic effect by enhanced AMPK-α1, AMPK-α2, and GLUT4 in L6 cells over the non-treatment. Our results suggest that YE could be a biotic elicitor to enhance the phytochemical contents and increase the benefit of agarwood leaves as a health supplement. |
