Abstract
Treatment with curcumin can significantly improve the metabolic disorder of glucose and lipid, enhance the sensitivity to the insulin, and ameliorate the resistance to insulin of the type II DM rats. Meanwhile, this treatment method can also significantly decrease the level of FFA and TNF-α in serum of type II DM rats. Thus, we inferred that the mechanism of curcumin to improve the insulin resistance might be correlated with the decreases of FFA and TNF-α in serum.
