Protective Effect of <i>Siegesbeckia orientalis</i> on Pancreatic β-Cells under High Glucose-Induced Glucotoxicity

The glucotoxicity caused by long-term exposure of β-cells to high glucose (HG) conditions may lead to the generation of more reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduce the activity of antioxidant enzymes, cause cell damage and apoptosis, and induce insulin secretion dysfunction. <i>Siegesbeckia ori...
