The major polyphenol components from Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) leaves (PPS) are chlorogenic acids, a polyphenol family of esters, including hydroxycinnamic acids with quinic acid, which possesses excellent hydrophilic antioxidant activity and other therapeutic properties. As an abundant byproduct during production of steviol glycosides, the PPS would be a new antioxidantive food resource or additives applied in foods and drugs with antidiabetic function. Extracting PPS from S. rebaudiana (Bertoni) leaves together with steviol glycosides would be an economic process, which will change most operation process in current Stevia factories. The quantification of PPS needs to be unified for regulation. In view of the current regulation status of polyphenols and extracts from Stevia, the PPS would be ready to go to the market with few regulation barriers in the near future. This review will summarize the analysis, extraction, and some functional properties of PPS, such as antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer.

Research Background: The process for producing purified steviol glycosides from leaves (stevia) generally involves pretreatments, extraction, purification and crystallization. Pre-extraction or defatting can sometimes be a part of this process. It can remove impurities of low polarity, such as chlorophyll and fatty compounds.

To form the diabetes group, rats were injected intraperitoneally with STZ and rats with blood glucose levels above 200 mg/dL 2 days after STZ injection were included in the diabetes group. To form the stevia and diabetes + stevia groups, stevia was administered daily by gavage to both healthy and diabetic rats for 28 days.

Article Synopsis
- The SrUGT91D2 gene is essential for producing steviol glycosides and forming specific glucosidic bonds, influencing the synthesis of rebaudioside M and D; however, its promoter's regulatory function was previously unexplored.
- Researchers isolated the promoter from six S. rebaudiana lines, discovering a unique 26 bp inDel fragment in multiple lines, along with significant cis-regulatory elements responsive to various environmental factors.
- The promoter's activity was confirmed by constructing a plant expression vector with the GUS gene, showing both full-length and truncated versions activated GUS expression, with the inDel-containing version enhancing expression significantly in response to specific hormones and light.

Stevioside (5-10%) and rebaudioside-A (2-4%) are well-characterized diterpene glycosides found in leaves of Stevia rebaudiana known to have natural sweetening properties with zero glycaemic index. Stevioside has after-taste bitterness, whereas rebaudioside-A is sweet in taste. The ratio of rebaudioside-A to stevioside needs to be changed in order to increase the effectiveness and palatability of this natural sweetener.

(Bertoni) is a valuable sweetener plant whose sweetness primarily derives from steviol glycosides (SGs), especially rebaudioside A (RA). Polyploidization has the potential to enhance the content of active ingredients in medicinal plants, making this strategy a promising avenue for genetic improvement. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms that contribute to the fluctuating SGs content between autotetraploid and diploid stevia remain unclear.
