“…Furthermore, it is the most abundant tissue in the whole body and thus, the proper function of skeletal tissue is important to maintain normal blood glucose levels. In fact, L6 cells represent a good model for glucose uptake because they have been used extensively to elucidate the mechanisms of glucose uptake in muscle, have an intact insulin signalling pathway and express the insulin-sensitive GLUT4 31 . Based on our findings showed that root extract displays a better activity with the increased stimulation of the 2-NBDG uptake in both of the cell lines as compared with fruit extract.…”

“…Studies in isolated rat myocytes have shown that testosterone treatment increase the insulin responsive glucose transporter, Glut 4 translocation to plasma membrane of the skeletal muscle, resulting in increased glucose uptake by skeletal muscle cells [6]. Glut 4 translocation can be both insulin dependent and independent as certain bioactive molecules can increase Glut 4 translocation in skeletal muscle and testosterone activates Glut 4 translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by stimulating the LKB1/AMPK pathway, in an insulin independent manner [7, 8]. However, in these studies, the underlying mechanism of action of testosterone on the insulin signaling pathway and insulin responsiveness in the major glucose homeostatic tissues, resulting in the enhanced glycemic control remained unanswered.…”

“…The increase in triglyceride observed in some treated groups may probably be as a result of insufficient insulin availability to trigger the uptake or utilization of glucose. Unusually high concentration of serum lipids caused by increase in the transportation of free fatty acids from the peripheral fat depots due to inhibition of the sensitive lipase by insulin has been reported [26,27]. This prominent high lipid in the blood may therefore be taken as a result of the uninhibited actions of hormones involved in lipids catabolism on the fat depots caused probably by administration of the extract of the herb.…”
