“…1 and the structure was further confirmed by comparing the 13 C-NMR data with the published data (Choi et al, 2007). (Ayoola et al, 2017). This observed activity could be as a result of the presence of campesterol in the hexane fraction.…”

“…The anti-diabetic activity of the phytosterols has been attributed to the ability to lowering the level of cholesterol in the blood (Dumolt and Rideout, 2017). The presence of phytosterol may be responsible for the reported anti-diabetic activity of the root bark of Uvaria afzelii (Ayoola et al, 2017).…”

“…The blood glucose levels at 0 h (T o ) were taken as 100% while those at other times were percentages of these values. Their blood glucose (bg) levels were determined and recorded at 0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 h after administration of the normal saline/extract/fraction/drug [29].…”

“…This abnormal condition leads to Diabetes mellitus (DM) if persisted for a long period due to lack of insulin or insulin resistance. It was estimated in 2013 that 382 million people have diabetes worldwide, with type 2 diabetes making up about 90% of the cases (Ayoola et al, 2017). Diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke and lower limb amputation.…”

“…It was reported to double the risk of death and World Health Organization (WHO) projected that diabetes will be the seventh leading cause of death in 2030 (Mathers and Loncar, 2006;Hitabchi et al, 2009). The number of people with diabetes is estimated to rise to 592 million by 2035 (Ayoola et al, 2017) There is the need to isolate the active principles from medicinal plant extracts as the use of crude extracts has limitations. Isolation of compounds helps greatly in the standardization of dosages and pharmacokinetic studies.…”
