- Abstract: Aim To explore the effect of four stilbenes including rhaponticin, desoxyrhaponticin, rhapontigenin and resveratrol on glucose and lipid metabolism in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells induced by high glucose and high fat. Methods The model of insulin resistance was established by incubating HepG2 cells with a complex of glucose and oleic acid. MTT assay was used to detect cell viability. The intracellular triglyceride (TG) and glucose levels were measured by the kit method. The lipid production was observed by oil red O staining, and the cell morphology and uptake of 2-NBDG were observed by confocal microscope. The PPAR signaling pathway and PI3K/Akt insulin signaling pathway related proteins were determined by Western blot to evaluate the effect of stilbenes on glycolipid metabolism in IR-HepG2 cells. Results The complex containing 50 mmol • L
