Research Progress of Improving Insulin Resistance of Diabetes Mellitus with Chinese Herbal Monomer

Abstract

In recent years, large-scale clinical trials have confirmed that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has made progress in controlling blood sugar levels. Studies have found that TCM monomers play a significant role in the regulation of insulin resistance-related signaling pathway proteins. Therefore, Chinese and foreign scholars have conducted a lot of studies on the mechanism of insulin resistance. This paper integrates the studies on insulin receptor resistance of TCM (Rhizoma Alismatis, Scutellaria baicalensis, the root of kudzu vine, berberine, Cortex Moutan), and provides a useful reference for the treatment of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes.
