Bellidifolin stimulates glucose uptake in rat 1 fibroblasts and ameliorates hyperglycemia in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats.
Bellidifolin, isolated from Swertia japonica, was found to be a potent hypoglycemic agent in STZ-induced diabetic rats by both oral and intraperitoneal administration. Bellidifolin significantly lowered the loaded glucose level in normal as well as diabetic rats. Bellidifolin also lowered blood triglyceride levels significantly. It stimulated glucose uptake activity in Rat 1 fibroblasts expressing human insulin receptors.
