Antidiabetic activities of menthone on insulin resistant in 3T3-L1 adipocytes
Keywords:
Antidiabetic, insulin resistant, 3T3-L1 adipocytesAbstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia and metabolic consequences caused by insulin defects. Adipose tissue is an endocrine organ that influences glucose and lipid metabolism by releasing adipokines; adipose tissue is vital for the life of mammals. It represents the major source of fatty acid. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT) are the basic adipose tissue forms. They have different functions and cellular compositions and localization. They are essentially adversarial in terms of functionality. WAT is known to contain the most body fat; its involvement in the storage of excess dietary triglycerides. It is the source of free fatty aid used as energy substrates for the generation through oxidative phosphate of (ATP) high-energy bonds. During insulin resistance, the secretion of the hormone from the pancreatic islet cells cannot trigger glucose uptake in metabolic tissues, leading to elevated blood glucose and insulin levels. Menthone is cyclic monoterpenes and is reported to have several biological activities. This study, explores the potential antidiabetic effects invitro of menthone in the 3T3L1 adipocytes. Methods: The differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes into mature adipocytes were cultured and maintained.
