Integration of in silico, in vitro and ex vivo pharmacology to decode the anti-diabetic action of Ficus benghalensis L. bark.

The analogs of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, apigenin, and ursolic acid could be the choice of lead hits as the α-amylase, α-glucosidase, and PTP1B inhibitors respectively. Additionally, the majority of secondary metabolites from the hydroalcoholic extract of F. benghalensis may be involved in enhancing the glucose uptake to support the process of glycogenesis.
