Abstract:Background
Lipid metabolism disorders have become a major global public health issue. Due to the complexity of these diseases, much more research and many more drugs are needed to address them. Oroxin A, the major component of Oroxylum indicum (L.) Kurz (Bignoniaceae), can improve the lipid profiles of diabetic and insulin-resistant (IR) rats. Since insulin resistance is highly correlated with lipid metabolism, improving insulin resistance may also be an effective way to improve lipid metabolism. Thus, more r… Show more
