Biochem/physiol Actions

Kaempferitrin (Lespenefril) is a naturally-occurring kaempferol glycoside with antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities.
Kaempferitrin is a flavonol glycoside, present in several plants, predominant in Bauhinia. It is known to stimulate insulin signaling pathway and induces glucose uptake, by mediating GLUT4 (glucose transporter 4) translocation to adipocyte membrane.. Kaempferitrin aids in lowering blood glucose level and therefore helps to improve the glycemic condition in diabetic animals.
