Abstract: | This study aims mainly to provide an insight and understanding of the effect of glucose utilization efficiency of biogenic gold nanoparticles (GNPs) synthesized through the mediation of Marsilea quadrifolia (M. quadrifolia) methanol extract on 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The biosynthesized GNPs were characterized by UV visible spectrophotometry and FTIR. Simultaneously, the nature, stability, and morphological characteristics were analyzed by XRD, TG-DTA, SEM-EDS, HRTEM, and SAED. The results of characterization studies were used to assess the properties of GNPs. The in vitro cytotoxicity screening indicates that 100 μM of biogenic GNPs were displayed 71.23 ± 1.56% of cellular viability in 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells. Subsequently, increased glucose utilization of biosynthesized GNPs based on a dose-dependent manner on 3T3-L1 has also been demonstrated. The effect of GNPs (30 μg) on glucose uptake was higher than that of insulin and metformin. Moreover, the observed results clearly highlight that the biogenic GNPs have higher efficiency of glucose utilization and cellular viability in 3T3-L1 adipocytes with lower toxicity. |
