The inhibition assays of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP- IV) and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation were conducted using 70% ethanol (EtOH) extraction of freeze-dried soymilk yogurt. Soymilk yogurt produced using Weissella confusa TOKAI 2 showed the highest inhibition rate in the α-amylase inhibition assay, while soymilk yogurt produced using Lactiplantibacillus plantarum TOKAI 17 showed the highest inhibition rates in the α-glucosidase and DPP-Ⅳ inhibition assays, respectively. Soymilk yogurt produced using Streptococcus macedonicus TOKAI 4 showed the highest inhibitory activities in Nω-(carboxymethyl) arginine (CMA) and Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine (CML) formation, respectively. Furthermore, soymilk yogurt prepared using Lb. plantarum TOKAI 17 and Lactiplantibacillus pentosus TOKAI 35 exhibited higher proportions of aglycone isoflavones than soymilk and showed a higher fluorescent AGEs inhibitory activity than that of soymilk (p < 0.05). Interestingly, the inhibition assay assessing fluorescent AGEs formation using isoflavones indicated that aglycone-type isoflavones, such as genistein and daidzein, had higher inhibitory activities than that of glycosides (p < 0.05). These results indicate that soymilk yogurt produced using Lb. plantarum TOKAI 17 and Lb. pentosus TOKAI 35 had inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase, DPP-Ⅳ, and AGEs formation in vitro, and that aglycone isoflavones might inhibit the formation of fluorescent AGEs.展开更多
