Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we investigated the mechanism of the anti-diabetic effect of falcarindiol isolated from Apiaceae family vegetables. Falcarindiol suppressed glucose production in rat hepatoma H4ⅡE cells. Falcarindiol also increased the level of inhibitory phosphorylation of GSK-3β in H4IIE cells. These results indicate that several Apiaceae family vegetables containing falcarindiol could be a useful food ingredient against type-2 diabetes.
