Serpentine
Serpentine, an alkaloid from Rosa centifolia roots, acts as an insulin sensitizer by activating AMPK phosphorylation to stimulate glucose uptake in cells like C2C12. It modulates pathways involving GSK-3β and hepatic gluconeogenesis, demonstrating effects in HFD/STZ-induced diabetic mouse models relevant to diabetes research.
