Flavanols and triterpenoids from Myrianthus arboreus ameliorate hyperglycaemia in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats possibly via glucose uptake enhancement and α-amylase inhibition
Myrianthus arboreus is use traditionally as an antidiabetic agent in Ghana. We reported the in vivo antidiabetic activity of its 70 % ethanol stem bark extract (MAB) which we found to be strongly concentrated in its EtOAc fraction using glucose uptake and enzyme inhibitory assays. The present study...
