Dual Beneficial Effects of α-Spinasterol Isolated from <i>Aster pseudoglehnii</i> on Glucose Uptake in Skeletal Muscle Cells and Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion in Pancreatic β-Cells

Herein, we determined whether α-Spinasterol, a stigmastane-type phytosterol isolated from <i>Aster pseudoglehnii</i>, potentially impacts glucose uptake and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in skeletal muscle cells and pancreatic β-cells, respectively. We observed that <i>A. ps...
