Evaluation of the Therapeutic Potential of Bioactive Materials Based on a Complex of Oxidovanadium(IV) and Exopolysaccharide Levan in a Model of Insulin Resistance in Mice

ChemMedChem, EarlyView.
A low‐toxicity bioactive composition of oxidovanadium(IV) and exopolysaccharide levan is synthesized, characterized, and shown to reduce hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and TyG index in a mice model of dexamethasone‐induced insulin resistance. Bioactive compositions containing vanadium complexes have been a viable strategy for constructing more ...
