TRPV1 Receptor-Mediated Hypoglycemic Mechanism of Capsaicin in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats

Our previous research showed that capsaicin exhibits hypoglycemic effects by activating the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel in diabetic rats. Interestingly, capsiate was also able to activate the TRPV1 channel, but with a non-significant hypoglycemic effect. This study aimed...
