Investigation of insulin releasing and glucose lowering effects of extract of selected plants used in African traditional medicinal practice
… plants are poorly understood. This work assessed insulinotropic actions of aqueous and methanolic extracts of selected plants. Plants extraction was carried out using Soxhlet extractor and vacuum evaporator with methanol or water as solvent. Phytochemical screening, total flavonoids and total …

Investigation of cellular mechanisms underlying insulin-releasing or glucose-lowering effects of extracts of selected plants used in traditional medicinal practice for the management of diabetes
… were conducted prior to the assessment of the insulin releasing effects, cytotoxicity as well as effects of plant extracts on cell viability, oxidative stress, and protein glycation. Subsequently, the involvement of the ATP-dependent pathway in the actions of selected plants was investigated. …

Investigation of insulinotropic and cytoprotective effects of selected amphibian skin peptides
… by persistently high blood sugar levels, insulin resistance, and ongoing pancreatic β-cell failure, primarily due to oxidative stress and lipotoxicity. Current treatments face several issues, such as severe side effects, high costs, limited access in regions with higher disease rates, and …

Gut-brain axis: Central impact of gut peptides and metabolic drug on monoamine neurotransmission
Gastrointestinal peptides like insulin and glucagon-like peptide are not only essential metabolic hormones but can also modulate important brain function, unrelated to feeding behaviour and glucose homeostasis. Different evidence suggests that these peptides, as well as synthetic insulin …
