A siddha polyherbal preparation consisting of 5 medicinal plants, namely, Asparagus racemosus, Emblica officinalis, Salacia oblonga, Syzygium aromaticum, and Tinospora cordifolia, in equal ratio, was formulated to examine the molecular mechanism by which it exhibits antidiabetic effects in the liver of high-fat and fructose-induced type 2 diabetic rats. The polyherbal preparation treated type 2 diabetic rats showed an increase in insulin receptor, Akt, and glucose transporter2 mRNA levels compared with diabetic rats. Insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate-2, Akt, phosphorylated Akt substrate of 160kDaThreonine642, α-Actinin-4, β-arrestin-2, and glucose transporter2 proteins were also markedly decreased in diabetic rats, whereas the polyherbal preparation treatment significantly improved the expression of these proteins more than that of metformin-treated diabetic rats. The expression pattern of insulin signaling molecules analyzed in the present study signifies the therapeutic efficacy of the siddha polyherbal preparation.
