Herbal Therapies for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Chemistry, Biology, and Potential Application of Selected Plants and Compounds

TL;DR: Blood glucose-lowering medicinal herbs that have the ability to modulate one or more of the pathways that regulate insulin resistance, β-cell function, GLP-1 homeostasis, and glucose (re)absorption are selected and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-Hyperglycemic Properties of Crude Extract and Triterpenes from Poria cocos

TL;DR: Overall, the data suggest that the P. cocos extract and its triterpenes reduce postprandial blood glucose levels in db/db mice via enhanced insulin sensitivity irrespective of PPAR-γ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyacetylenic compounds and butanol fraction from Bidens pilosa can modulate the differentiation of helper T cells and prevent autoimmune diabetes in non-obese diabetic mice.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a butanol fraction of B. pilosa and its polyacetylenes can prevent diabetes plausibly via suppressing the differentiation of Th0 cells into Th1 cells and promoting that of Th 0cells into Th2 cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytopiloyne, a novel polyacetylenic glucoside from Bidens pilosa, functions as a T helper cell modulator.

TL;DR: Results suggest that cytopiloyne functions as a T cell modulator that may directly contribute to the ethnopharmacological effect of Bidens pilosa extract on preventing diabetes.
