Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM), a major global health concern, is a chronic metabolic disorder. Bioactive compounds sourced from numerous marine natural products recently have drawn attention as novel therapeutic approaches. Considering these chemicals and their role in cellular redox modulation by involving the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) pathway, the current study attempts to highlight their anti-diabetic effects and the molecular mechanisms involved. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidative stress, inflammation, and cellular damage are linked to most human pathologies specifically DM. The Nrf2/HO-1 pathway is a key defense mechanism developed by the cells to combat ROS burst. Marine natural compounds have strong pharmacological potential in triggering cellular antioxidant defense mechanisms by declining oxidative damage and inflammation linked to DM. How marine natural products potentially alleviate DM specifically type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its related issues is especially focused on. The literature was thoroughly analyzed to open a discussion about specific marine compounds and their well-established anti-diabetic effects to elucidate possible therapeutic applications. Furthermore, opportunities and the pros and cons of using these marine bioactive compounds as complementary treatment for DM are also discussed. The diverse characteristics of marine natural products, specifically with regard to redox control, offer promising opportunities for drug discovery and therapeutic interventions in clinical trials.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers in Marine Science publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research that advances our understanding of all aspects of the environment, biology, ecosystem functioning and human interactions with the oceans. Field Chief Editor Carlos M. Duarte at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology Thuwal is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, policy makers and the public worldwide.
With the human population predicted to reach 9 billion people by 2050, it is clear that traditional land resources will not suffice to meet the demand for food or energy, required to support high-quality livelihoods. As a result, the oceans are emerging as a source of untapped assets, with new innovative industries, such as aquaculture, marine biotechnology, marine energy and deep-sea mining growing rapidly under a new era characterized by rapid growth of a blue, ocean-based economy. The sustainability of the blue economy is closely dependent on our knowledge about how to mitigate the impacts of the multiple pressures on the ocean ecosystem associated with the increased scale and diversification of industry operations in the ocean and global human pressures on the environment. Therefore, Frontiers in Marine Science particularly welcomes the communication of research outcomes addressing ocean-based solutions for the emerging challenges, including improved forecasting and observational capacities, understanding biodiversity and ecosystem problems, locally and globally, effective management strategies to maintain ocean health, and an improved capacity to sustainably derive resources from the oceans.
