Abstract:Diabetes mellitus and its complications have become one of the major diseases threatening human health. Apigenin is a natural flavonoid widely distributed in a variety of vegetables and fruits. Apigenin has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, and confirmed its effectiveness in the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications. This paper summarizes the mechanism of apigenin in the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications, including apigenin can reduce antioxidant stress, protect the mitochondrial membrane of pancreatic beta cells, increase insulin sensitivity, and activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) to improve hemodynamics disorder after myocardial infarction and inhibits collagen Ⅳ and fibronectin to improve renal fibrosis. These results indicate that apigenin has therapeutic and prognostic advantages in patients with diabetes mellitus and complications based on multi-target, multi-pathway and multi-layer treatment, which provides a new idea and basis for the further development of apigenin.
