Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder that has reached epidemic proportions with the estimated prevalence rates and trends are escalating largely in developing countries. The awareness of the modern drugs to treat DM which have numerous side effects has led to a recent growing interest in the therapeutic use of natural products, especially those derived from plants. Pluchea indica is abundantly distributed in Malaysia and it is traditionally claimed to have antidiabetic properties. Our previous in vivo study demonstrated that P. indica prevents hyperglycemia in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and reduce blood glucose in normal rats. Here we report for the first time the antidiabetic potential of P. indica in the insulin regulation through cell-based in vitro model by using RIN-5F pancreatic β-cells. P. indica was extracted from the powdered dry leaves using soxhlet apparatus with n-hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and methanol consecutively.
