Developing Polyamine-Based Peptide Amphiphiles with Tunable Morphology and Physicochemical Properties.

[6]-Gingerol, from Zingiber officinale, potentiates GLP-1 mediated glucose-stimulated insulin secretion pathway in pancreatic β-cells and increases RAB8/RAB10-regulated membrane presentation of GLUT4 transporters in skeletal muscle to improve hyperglycemia in Lepr type 2 diabetic mice.

PEG modification of Amorfrutin B from Amorpha fructicosa increases gastric absorption, circulation half-life and glucose uptake by T3T-L1 adipocytes.
