Agriani CN, Kisrini, Dharmawan R. 2016. The effect of Averrhoa bilimbi stem extract on the blood glucose level of white rats induced by alloxan. Biofarmasi 14: 56-62. The purpose of this research is to find out the effect of belimbing wuluh stem (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) extract due to the blood glucose level in white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by alloxan. This research is a laboratory experiment using experimental control group pre-post test design. Subjects of this research are 25 white male rats (Rattus norvegicus), 2 months of age and 200 g of body weight. Subjects were divided into five groups. All groups were induced by 25 mg/200 g body weight/day of alloxan for three days. On the day of fourth, blood sample was collected from orbital vein of white rats for the measurement of the first blood glucose level (T1). Furthermore, the positive control group received 12,6 mg/200 g body weight/day of metformin, then the first, second, and third group received of each 25, 50, and 100 mg/200 g body weight/day of belimbing wuluh stem extract. On the fifteenth day of treatment, blood samples were collected again from the orbital vein of white rats for the measurement of the second blood glucose level (T2). The measurement of blood glucose was using spectrophotometer with the Glucose GOD PAP method. Then the data were analyzed by using One way ANOVA. Blood glucose rate after induction has subtracted from blood glucose rate after drug given. After that the data would be change in to mean data that represents as: negative control group = 24,4; positive control group 103,4; first given drug group = 83,4; second given drug group = 102,4; and third given drug group = 102,2 (in mg/100 mL unit). The statistical analysis by using One way ANOVA shows a significant difference in blood glucose level among the five groups of treatment with p-value = 0,000. Post Hoc Test shows that the first, second, and third group have the same effectively as the positive control group to decrease the blood glucose level with p > 0,05.

The present study conducted to investigate the haematological changes and changes of blood glucose level in male albino rat due to cold stress. In this experiment normal 12:12 light dark phases were maintained for all the groups. Control group was kept at normal room temperature (22 ± 1). A (4°C), B in (0°C), C (4°C and 0.30 mg alprazolam / kg body weight /animal), D (0°C and 0.30 mg alprazolam/ kg body weight/ animal. E2 group was treated with (4°C and 1000 mg/kg body weight methanolic extract of Withania somnifera root extract /animal). F2 group was treated with (0°C and 1000 mg/kg body weight methanolic root extract of Withania somnifera / animal). The blood glucose level was significantly increased in stressed rats compared to the control animals. The results were also consistent with the exposure to the stress and chronic restraint stress. Action of Alprazolam over cold stress treated group significantly reduced the blood glucose level. Whereas methanolic root extract of Withania somnifera in low and high doses also showed significant effects to the control anxiety like effects on blood glucose level. Alprazolam + different stress treated groups in different experiment at conditions show significant changes in its haematological parameters in comparison to the stress treated group. Whereas herbal medicine (i.e., methanolic root extract of Withania somnifera) when applied to different stress treated group showed more significant result, compared to the Alprazolam+ different stress treated groups. The positive safe anti stress effects of the herbal plant medicine prove that the tribal medicines have the potentiality to act effectively and can be used as safe medicine for antistress purposes.

This research aims to knowing about decrease glucose levels in rat induced alloxan with the provision of pineapple stem extract (Ananas comusus L.). Previous studies have shown that bromelin can significantly reduce CD4+ lymphocytes, which are included in inflammatory diseases. One of the inflammatory diseases is diabetes mellitus. Blood glucose levels can be lowered by pineapple extract as it contains bromelin, and bromelin most widely found on the stem. The test animals used white rat strain wistar (Rattus norvegicus L.) with weight is 250-300 gram acclimated for seven days. The research was divided  six treatment groups: positive control, negative control, P1 (25% concentration), P2 (50% concentration), P3 (75% concentration), P4 (100% concentration). After treatment for rat in category or sampel was administered pineapple stem extract for 14 days after that experiment status blood glucose level. The results showed that rat had  increased (hyperglicemic) after alloxan induced,and also in blood glucose levels in all treatment. the biggest decrease was in P4 is 44 mgdl. The statistic of Kruskal-Wallis test showed that the decrease of rat blood glucose concentration at various concentration of pineapple extract influence  signifificantly. According to the result  that conclusion is  the difference of pineapple extract concentration (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) influence for decrease blood glucose levels and decreasing blood glucose level after 14 days, but in this  time blood glucose  not returned as normal conditions.

Objective: To find out the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale) juice blood glucose in alloxan induced-diabetes mellitus in rats. Methods: This experimental study was done in the Department of Pharmacology & Therapeutics, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, in collaboration with the Departments of Pathology, Ibrahim Medical College, Dhaka between January and December 2009. This experimental animal study was divided into two parts, which were Experiment-1 and Experiment-2. Experiment 1 comprises of 12 rats and divided into 2 groups each group having 6 rats. Rats of group-A was non-diabetic normal control group and group-B was fed with ginger (Zingiber officinale) in a dose of 4ml/kg body weight orally through Ryle’s tube. Experiment-2 comprised of 12 rats divided into 2 groups each containing 6 rats labeled as group C, group D. Rats of groups C administered alloxan 150 mg/kg intraperitoneally on the 2nd day of the study. Rats of group D were administered alloxan 150mg /kg intraperitoneally and ginger (4ml/kg of body weight orally) on the 2nd day of the study. Results: The fasting blood glucose level at day 12 in the rats treated with ginger (Zingiber officinale) 4 ml /kg body weight orally daily for 12 days showed reduction in fasting blood glucose level as compared to control group, but not significant, which indicates that ginger has no effect in lowering blood glucose of normal rats. The fasting blood glucose levels at day 12 in the rats of group D (treated with ginger and alloxan) showed highly significant reduction in fasting blood glucose level as compared to diabetic control group (p<0.002). Conclusion: Consumption of ginger produced a significant antihyperglycemic effect in experimentally induced diabetic rats.

Alipin K, Sari EP, Madihah, Setiawati T, Ratningsih N, Malini DM. 2017. Kidney histology in streptozotocin-induced diabetic male Wistar rats treated with combined extract of temulawak rhizome and belimbing wuluh fruit. Nusantara Bioscience 9: 312-317. Complications that are occurred in patients with Diabetes Mellitus usually followed by kidney damage. Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) and belimbing wuluh (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) were traditionally used to decrease blood glucose level. Thus, they were potential as antidiabetic drugs. This study aimed to evaluate the combination of ethanol extracts of temulawak rhizome and belimbing wuluh fruit in repairing kidney damage in diabetic male Wistar rats induced by streptozotocin (STZ). An experimental method using a completely randomized design that consist of seven treatments with three replications. Six treatment groups were injected intraperitoneally with a dose of 60 mg/kg BW STZ, and one group served as a control. The animals which have blood glucose level ≥200 mg/dl were stated as diabetic. Furthermore, the animals were treated orally with single extract i.e. temulawak 17.5 mg/kg BW or belimbing wuluh 750 mg/kg BW and combined extracts 383.75 or 767.5 mg/kg BW, as well as glibenclamide 0.45 mg/kg BW as reference, including diabetic rat as positive control and non-diabetic rat as negative control. The results showed that combine extract at dose of 383.75 mg/kg BW treatment repaired the kidney histology, i.e., glomerular diameter and Bowman space width, as well as significantly decreased the necrosis percentage of proximal tubular in diabetic rat compared with positive control group (p<0.05). In conclusion, the combined extract of temulawak rhizome and belimbing wuluh fruit has potent to cure renal failure in diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin.
