Effect of guava (Psidium guajava Linn.) leaf soluble solids on glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetic rats.

TL;DR: This study investigated the effect of aqueous and ethanol soluble solid extracts of guava (Psidium guajava Linn.) leaves on hypoglycemia and glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetic rats to evaluate the antihyperglycemic effect of Guava leaf extracts in diabetic rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Caffeic Acid and Cinnamic Acid on Glucose Uptake in Insulin-Resistant Mouse Hepatocytes

TL;DR: The results suggest that caffeic acid and cinnamic acid may promote insulin receptor tyrosyl phosphorylation, up-regulate the expression of insulin signal associated proteins, and increase the uptake of glucose, and alleviate insulin resistance in cells as a consequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective Effect of Vanillic Acid against Hyperinsulinemia, Hyperglycemia and Hyperlipidemia via Alleviating Hepatic Insulin Resistance and Inflammation in High-Fat Diet (HFD)-Fed Rats.

TL;DR: The results indicate that VA might ameliorate insulin resistance via improving hepatic insulin signaling and alleviating inflammation pathways in HFD rats and suggest the potential of VA in preventing the progression of DM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gallic acid ameliorates hyperglycemia and improves hepatic carbohydrate metabolism in rats fed a high-fructose diet.

TL;DR: GA significantly alleviated hyperglycemia, reduced the values of the area under the curve for glucose in an oral glucose tolerance test, and reduced the scores of the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Guava (Psidium guajava L.) Leaf Extract on Glucose Uptake in Rat Hepatocytes

TL;DR: It is suggested that quercetin in the aqueous extract of guava leaves promotes glucose uptake in liver cells, and contributes to the alleviation of hypoglycemia in diabetes as a consequence.
