Novel Triterpenoids from <i>Cassia fistula</i> Stem Bark Depreciates STZ-Induced Detrimental Changes in IRS-1/Akt-Mediated Insulin Signaling Mechanisms in Type-1 Diabetic Rats
Here, we identified the mechanisms of action of antidiabetic activity of novel compounds isolated from <i>Cassia fistula</i> stem bark in STZ-diabetic animals. Novel triterpenoid compounds (C1, C2 and C3) were treated to STZ-administered diabetic animals at a concentration of 20mg/kg bod...
