Objective: The aim of this research was to probe the effect of isobavachalcone inhibiting the high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) induced hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia in mice and its underlying mechanisms. Methods: A mouse model with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was established by the HFD and low-dose streptozotocin. T2DM mice were treated with 10 mg/kg of isobavachalcone for 4 weeks. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), blood lipids, and relative proteins in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway as well as the histological structural changes in the liver were determined. Results: The results showed that the expression levels of FBG (42%, P<.001), triglyceride (70%, P<.001), and glucose transporter 2 were significantly reduced by isobavachalcone. The proteinic and mRNA expressions of IRS1, PI3K, and AKT genes of T2DM mice were dramatically increased with the isobavachalcone treatment. Furthermore, isobavachalcone ameliorated the morphology of the liver in T2DM model mice. Conclusion: The results suggested that isobavachalcone controls the development of T2DM as well as the regulatory mechanism involved in glucose and lipid metabolism through the PI3K/AKT signal pathway in the liver.
