Figure 3From: Antioxidant, α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and sub-chronic toxicity of Derris reticulata extract: its antidiabetic potentialEffect ofD. reticulataextract on insulin secretion. Glibenclamide significantly increased insulin concentration in the medium from 1.35 ± 0.04 (control) to 2.36 ± 0.15 ng/105 cells. Treatment with the extract at the doses of 250 and 500 μg/ml did not significantly alter insulin secretion from RINm5F cells (1.27 ± 0.09 and 1.38 ± 0.09 ng/105 cells, respectively). Values are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. (n = 3). * p < 0.05 statistically significant difference from control.Back to article page
