Abstract

Anthocyanins are the largest group of water-soluble pigments in the plant kingdom, known collectively as flavonoids. More than 8000 flavonoids, and 500 anthocyanin structures had been reported by the year 2000 and more are continually being isolated. Anthocyanins are believed to display an array of beneficial actions on human health and well-being. Due to our increasing understanding and awareness of the potential beneficial human health effects, research on anthocyanins has recently intensified. During the past two decades an increasing number of studies have investigated the diverse protective effects elicited by polyphenolics present in various fruits and vegetables. These effects include antioxidant, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, antiproliferative, anti-mutagenic, anti-microbial, anti-carcinogenic, protection from cardiovascular damage and allergy, microcirculation improvement, peripheral capillary fragility prevention, diabetes prevention, and vision improvement. Other physiological effects are continually being investigated. The aim of the present article is to summarise the known anti-diabetic and eye function properties of anthocyanins to help in our understanding of their functional mechanism.

摘要

花青素是植物界最大的水溶性色素，统称为黄酮类化合物。到2000年，已经报道了8000多 个黄酮类化合物和500个花青素结构，而且还在不断地分离出更多的黄酮类化合物。花青素 被认为显示了一系列有益于人类健康和福祉的作用。由于我们对潜在的有益人类健康影响的 认识和认识的提高，花青素的研究最近得到了加强。在过去的二十年中，越来越多的研究已 经研究了在各种水果和蔬菜中存在的多酚类物质所产生的不同的保护作用。这些作用包括抗 氧化、抗过敏、抗炎、抗病毒、抗增殖、抗诱变、抗微生物、抗致癌、防止心血管损伤和过 敏、改善微循环、防止周围毛细血管脆性、预防糖尿病和改善视力。其他生理效应也在不断 地被研究。 本文综述了花青素的抗糖尿病和眼部功能特性，以帮助我们了解花青素的作用机制。
