Introduction: Based on the latest research, exercise had significant effect to decrease blood glucose. The aimed of this study was to investigate the effect of isometric exercise model on blood glucose in Diabetic Mice (Mus musculus).Methodes: This research was used a true experimental study with randomize post-test only control group design. The sample was male mice (Mus musculus) in 20-27 grams weight. 27 male mice were divided into three groups; the first group was normal group (control) that injected by NaCl as placebo, the second group was diabetic mice and the third group was diabetic mice with exercise. Both second group and third group were injected by streptozotocin (STZ) to induce Diabetes Mellitus. After 2x24 hours injected, all groups were given oral glucose (Dextrose-40% or D40). One hour after they given by D40, the third group was treated by isometric exercise used treadmill for 23.31 minutes with 21 cm/second speed and 0° elevation angle. Then the blood samples of all groups were taken to measure the blood glucose level. Data were analyzed by One Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, ANOVA test, and Least Significance Difference (LSD) with significance level of α<0.05.Result: The result of One Kolmogorov-Smirnov test showed that there was p=0.94 in normal group, p=0.50 in diabetic group, and p=0.19 in diabetic with exercise group. The result of ANOVA test was p=0.08. The result of LSD for blood glucose revealed was p=0.23 for diabetic group and diabetic with exercise group. The researcher had an assumption that probably it happened because of in second group there were two mice that had normal blood glucose levels and in the third group the initial blood glucose levels were unknown, hence they probably could had normal blood glucose levels too. Discussion: It can be concluded that there is no effect of isometric exercise to decrease blood glucose. Further research should investigate more about the frequency and intensity of isometric exercise that could has effect to decrease blood glucose.

The process of germination of grains such as rice, could increase some nutritional values of  amino acids and dietary fiber. Red rice and its sprouts are believed to be able to decrease blood glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the hypoglycemic effect of red rice sprouts in STZ-NA induced diabetic rats on blood glucose level, insulin level, and HOMA-IR and HOMA-β index. This experimental study was conducted based on randomized post test only control group design using 24 male Wistar rats aged 2.5 months. Rats were divided into 4 groups, one group without induction of STZ-NA fed with a standard diet (control) and three groups of STZ- NA induced with a standard diet, red rice and red rice germ. Experiments were conducted for 6 weeks. The results showed that sprouted red rice lowered blood glucose levels by 61.88 % and the value of HOMA-IR (insulin resistance parameters) by 56.82%. Insulin level increased by 16.35 % and HOMA-β by 763.6 %. This study showed that red rice germ was able to decrease blood glucose levels and increase insulin resistance of DM rats and the strength of the pancreatic beta cells. ABSTRAKProses perkecambahan biji-bijian seperti beras, dapat meningkatkan beberapa nilai gizi seperti asam amino dan serat pangan. Beras merah dan kecambahnya diyakini mampu menurunkan glukosa darah pada penderita diabetes melitus (DM). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengevaluasi efek hipoglikemik kecambah beras merah pada tikus diabetes yang diinduksi STZ-NA terhadap kadar glukosa darah, insulin, serta indeks HOMA-IR dan HOMA β. Penelitian ini bersifat eksperimental in vivo pada hewan coba tikus Wistar jantan usia 2,5 bulan sebanyak 24 ekor dengan desain penelitian randomized post test only control group. Tikus dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok, masing-masing 1 kelompok tanpa induksi STZ-NA dengan diet standar dan 3 kelompok diinduksi STZ-NA dengan diet standar, beras merah dan kecambah beras merah. Percobaan dilakukan selama 6 minggu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kecambah beras merah mampu menurunkan kadar glukosa darah sebesar 61,88 % dan nilai HOMA-IR (parameter resistensi insulin) 56,82 %. Kadar insulin meningkat 16,35 % dan HOMA β 763,6 %. Disimpulkan, kecambah beras merah mampu menurunkan kadar glukosa darah dan memperbaiki kondisi resistensi insulin tikus DM, dan kekuatan sel beta pankreas.

The purpose of this research is to know the effectiveness of red betel leaf infusion (Piper crocatum) as anti-obesity in mice (Mus musculus). Other parameters of this study to know the relationship between changes in blood glucose levels to obesity in experimental animals. Experimental animals used were 24 male mice. The design of this research is completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments 6 repetitions. There are four treatmens P0 (Control), P1 (6 mice by giving a betel leaf infusion with a concentration of 5%), P2 (6 mice by giving a betel leaf infusion with a concentration of 10%), and P3 (6 mice by giving a betel leaf infusion with a concentration of red 15%). The treatment is carried out once every day for 21 days. Before treatment, initial weight was weighed and blood glucose level examination continued on the 7th day, on the 14th day, and on the 21st day. Data obtained from the results of weighing and checking blood sugar levels were further analyzed using the ANOVA test which statistically showed no significant changes (P> 0.05) of body weight and blood glucose levels in mice (Mus musculus) given infusion red betel leaf (Piper crocatum).

Insulin leave (Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray) empirically used by people as antihyperglycemic drugs. The study was aimed to evaluate antihyperglycemic activity as well as to determine the most optimum dose of T. diversifolia to reduce blood glucose levels. Hyperglycemic condition was induced to male Rattus norvegicus rats by intraperitoneal injection of alloxan at a dose of 150 mg/kg bw (body weight). In this study, completely randomized design was performed with three treatment groups and five times repetition. Group P1 received glibenclamide 10 mg/kg bw, P2 received aqueous extract of T. diversifolia at a dose of 150 mg/kg bw, P3 received aqueous extract of T. diversifolia at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw. Administration of both glibenclamide and aqueous extract of T. diversifolia was conducted orally for 28 days. Data were analyzed using Anova and Duncan’s test with 95% confidence level (α = 0.05). The results showed that the mean percentage of decrease in blood glucose levels, drink intake and body weight of all treatment groups were not significantly different (p>0.05). Data of feed intake showed that P1 was significantly different from P2 (p<0.05), but P2 was not significantly different from P3 (p>0.05). Based on the result of this research, it was found that the low doses of aqueous extract of T. diversifolia has the same ability to decrease blood glucose level compared to glibenclamide. Futhermore, this study provide some information that can be used as preclinical analysis to determine effective doses of aqueous extract of T. diversifolia to decrease blood glucose levels.
