The Coffee Diterpene, Kahweol, Ameliorates Pancreatic β-Cell Function in Streptozotocin (STZ)-Treated Rat INS-1 Cells through NF-kB and p-AKT/Bcl-2 Pathways
Kahweol is a diterpene molecule found in coffee that exhibits a wide range of biological activity, including anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. However, the impact of kahweol on pancreatic β-cells is not known. Herein, by using clonal rat INS-1 (832/13) cells, we performed several function...
