Rutin inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis and increases glycogen synthesis through the IRS/PI3K/akt signaling pathway in insulin resistant hepatocytes.

Rutin, a dietary flavonoid, can relieve insulin resistance to improve hyperglycemia, while the precise mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we found that rutin bound well to the insulin receptor, alleviated glucosamine-induced insulin resistance…
