Isorhamnetin Exhibits Hypoglycemic Activity and Targets PI3K/AKT and COX-2 Pathways in Type 1 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Background: Isorhamnetin (ISO), a dietary O-methylated flavonol, was evaluated for hypoglycemic activity and mechanism in a streptozotocin (STZ) model of type 1 diabetes. Methods: We conducted untargeted plasma metabolomics (ESI±), network integration and docking, and measured pancreatic PI3K, phosphorylated AKT, and COX-2; INS-1 β cells challenged with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 were used to assess viability, intracellular ROS, and PI3K phosphorylation. Results: ISO lowered fasting glycemia, increased circulating insulin, improved dyslipidemia by reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and preserved islet architecture. Untargeted plasma metabolomics (ESI±) indicated broad remodeling with enrichment of arachidonic-, linoleic-, starch/sucrose- and glycero
