Antioxidative Property and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Geniposide-Mediated Therapeutic Effects in Diabetes Mellitus and Cardiovascular Disease

Figure 4

Schematic diagram of mechanisms for antioxidant activity of geniposide. Geniposide activates the GLP-1R-mediated signaling cascades in oxidative stress induced by H2O2, SIN-1, I/R, and high-fat food. ROS: reactive oxygen species; GLP-1R: glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor; CuZn-SOD: copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase; SIN-1: 3-morpholinosydnonimine hydrochloride; PKA: protein kinase A; MAPK: mitogen-activated protein kinase; PPARα: peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α; PI3K: phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase; HO-1: heme oxygenase-1; Nrf2: nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2.
