Evaluation of the impact of polypeptide-p on diabetic rats upon its cloning, expression, and secretion in Saccharomyces boulardii.

Researchers evaluated the effectiveness of a recombinant protein from Momordica charantia on diabetic rats. They cloned the optimized gene sequence into a probiotic yeast and fed it to diabetic rats, resulting in a significant reduction in blood glucose levels. This study suggests a potential safe plant-based supplement for diabetes.
