INS and Hyperglycemia: Wang et al. reported that Panax quinquefolius exerted an anti-lipolytic effect on type 2 diabetic conditions through a signaling pathway different from that of insulin, suggesting that Panax quinquefolius not only affects pancreatic cells through increasing insulin production and cell viability, but also through creating an anti-lipolytic effect and targeting glucose receptors to counter hyperglycemia [21].
