Antidiabetic. | [in vivo]
Insulin Detemir (d-INS) (5 IU/kg; i.p.; once daily; 2 weeks) demonstrates weight-sparing effects compared with other insulin formulations, and shows a intestinal tissues preference, potentially involving the activation of insulin/-catenin/CREB signaling pathways[1].
Animal Model: | Obese type 2 diabetic db/db mice[1] | Dosage: | 5 IU/kg | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection; once daily for 2 weeks | Result: | Decreased body weight of the mice after 14-day daily injection of d-INS (5 IU/kg) significantly compared with those injected with the same dose of human Insulin or saline.
Induced rapid phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt) in the gut L cells of normal mice. |
