Abstract: Studied the efficacy of ethanol extracts and alkalescent chloroform extracts of potentilla on glucose metabolisme of L6 skeletal muscle cells. The results showed that both ethanol extracts and alkalescent chloroform extracts of potentilla have the ability to enhance the glucose metabolism of L6 skeletal muscle cells. Besides, the alkalescent chloroform extracts indicateed a better efficacity, moreover, this efficacity and the concentration have a positive relativity. In addition, the product of metabolism of the alkalescent chloroform extracts in vitro also indicateed a telling efficacity that enhance the glucose metabolism of L6 skeletal muscle cells and this efficacity has few dispacity with the one of extracts itself.

Key words: potentilla, L6 skeletal muscle cells, metabolism of glucose
