“…It has been well‐established that autophagy plays an imperative role in the promotion of metabolic disorders such as diabetes, so we got interested in scrutinize the expression and modulation of autophagy signaling factors in STZ‐treated Rin‐5F cells exposed upon RCO. Antimicrobial, hypolipidemic, anti‐osteoporosis, immunomodulating, antioxidant, and anticancer activities as well as, modulation of several diseases through alteration of gut microbiota have been widely attributed to polysaccharides and oligosaccharides extracted from several sources from bacteria, fungal, and herbs (Lim, Yu, Kim, & Chung, 2016; Neyrinck et al., 2012; Ru et al., 2019; Wang, Zhang, Zhang, Wang, & Yan, 2017; Wang et al., 2019; Yang, Hsieh, Wen, Chiu, & Lin, 2017; Yu et al., 2013; Zheng et al., 2018; Zhu, Xue, & Zhang, 2016). There is increasing evidence that isolated polysaccharides have also been involved in the treatment of diabetes (Wang, Wang, et al, 2017; Wang, Wang, et al, 2017; Zhang, Huang, Hong, & Chen, 2019; Zhang et al., 2017).…”
