A-type procyanidins from litchi pericarp ameliorate hyperglycaemia by regulating hepatic and muscle glucose metabolism in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice fed with high fat diet
A-type procyanidins is rich in litchi pericarp. This study evaluated the prevention and anti-diabetic effect of A-type oligomeric procyanidins (A-OPC).
