Abstract HPLC analysis was employed to identify the chemical compositions in BAE. Delphinidin, cyanidin, peonidin, and malvidin were detected in BAE. After establishment of the T2DM mice model, BAE and metformin were treated. Body weight, fasting blood glucose level and glucose tolerance were monitored, followed by detection of β-TG, PF4, CD62p, mitophagy markers. Both BAE and metformin implement reduced the body weight and fasting blood glucose level, and improved glucose tolerance of T2DM mice.
