The Effects of Chinese Medicine on Activation of Wntβ-Catenin Signal Pathway under High Glucose Condition

Abstract EN

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and a series of complications.

The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is a complex protein interaction network, which is also a key regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation.

Many scholars have found that high glucose can activate the Wnt signaling pathway.

However, the effects of activation of this pathway in the presence of high glucose levels during the progression of diabetes still remained unclear.

Here, we provide a review of the study on the effects of high glucose state on the Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway and the influence of Chinese medicine on it.
