Binahong (<i>Anredera cordifolia</i> (Tenore) Steen.) Leaf Extract Modulates Fatty Acids and Amino Acids to Lower Blood Glucose in High-Fat Diet-Induced Diabetes Mellitus Rats

<div>The level of plasma saturated fatty acid medium-chain (<i>C</i> &lt; 20) higher in diabetic rats as compared to normal rats but lower in unsaturated fatty acids medium-chain. Oral administration of <i>A. cordifolia</i> leaves extract doses 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg body weight, and glibenclamide 0.51 mg/kg BW lowered the plasma fatty acid as compared to untreated diabetic rats. All values are described as mean ± SD for five rats in each group. (a) C14 : 0 = myristic acid methyl ester; (b) C16:0 = palmitic acid methyl ester; (c) C16:1n9 = palmitoleic acid methyl ester; (d) C18:1n9 = oleic acid methyl ester.</div>
