Experimental Type

The goal of diabetes treatment is primarily to save life and alleviate symptoms and secondary to prevent long-term diabetic complications resulting from hyperglycemia. Thus, our present investigation was designed to evaluate the hepato-renal protective effects of gallic acid and p-coumaric acid in nicotinamide/streptozotocin (NA/STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Experimental type 2 diabetes was induced by a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of STZ (65 mg/kg b.wt.), after 15 min of i.p. injection of NA (120 mg/kg b.wt.). Gallic acid and p-coumaric acid were orally administered to diabetic rats at a dose of 20, 40 mg/kg b.wt./day, respectively, for 6 weeks. Body weight, serum glucose, protein profile, liver function enzymes and kidney function indicators was assayed. Treatment with either gallic acid or p-coumaric acid significantly ameliorated the elevated levels of glucose, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), urea and uric acid. Both compounds were also found to restore total protein, albumin, and globulin as well as body weight of diabetic rats to near normal values. It can conclude that both gallic acid and p-coumaric acid have potent hypoglycemic and hepato-renal protective effects in diabetic rats. Therefore, our results suggest promising hypoglycemic agents that can attenuate the progression of diabetic hepatopathy and nephropathy.

Abstract Background The use of Loranthus micranthus in folklore medicine for treatment of diabetes and its associated complications is a common practice around the world. The present study investigated this traditional affirmation by in vivo investigation into the effect of L. micranthus leaf extract on hepatic and renal, oxidative status and glucose metabolism in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Methods Diabetes mellitus was induced in adult male Wistar rats by intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg/kg). The diabetic rats were thereafter treated orally once per day with 5 mg/kg gilbenclamide or L. micranthus leaf extract (100 or 200 mg/kg) and monitored for 14 days. Clinical observations, plasma biochemistry, hormonal profile, oxidative stress parameters, glucose metabolism enzymes and histopathologic examination of the liver and kidney were evaluated to monitor treatment-related effects of L. micranthus leaf extract in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Results Loranthus micranthus leaf extract administration significantly ameliorated hyperglycemia-mediated damage by decreasing the blood glucose level (45.9% and 84.7% on days 7 and 14 posttreatment, respectively), enhancing the antioxidant status, inhibiting lipid peroxidation and improving the architecture of the liver and kidney in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Furthermore, intervention of L. micranthus leaf extract restored the liver and kidney function biomarkers and increased the plasma levels of triiodothyronine and thyroxine to normal control in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Conclusions The findings from this investigation provide credible scientific support for the traditional use of L. micranthus leaf extract in the treatment of diabetes and its associated complications.

The present study was aimed to investigate in vivo, in vitro antidiabetic activity of aqueous extract of Terminalia paniculata bark (AETPB) and characterize its possible phytoconstituents responsible for the actions. Type 2 diabetes was induced in rats by streptozotocin-nicotinamide (65 mg/kg–110 mg/kg; i.p.) administration. Oral treatment of AETPB using rat oral needle at 100 and 200 mg/kg doses significantly () decreased blood glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin levels in diabetic rats than diabetic control rats. AETPB-treated diabetic rats body weight, total protein, insulin, and haemoglobin levels were increased significantly () than diabetic control rats. A significant () reduction of total cholesterol and triglycerides and increase in high-density lipoprotein levels were observed in type 2 diabetic rats after AETPB administration. Presence of biomarkers gallic acid, ellagic acid, catechin, and epicatechin in AETPB was confirmed in HPLC analysis. AETPB and gallic acid showed significant () enhancement of glucose uptake action in presence of insulin in muscle cells than vehicle control. Also AETPB inhibited pancreatic α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes. In conclusion, the above actions might be responsible for the antidiabetic activity of AETPB due to presence of gallic acid and other biomarkers.

Gip Receptor

Rats were rendered diabetic by streptozotocin, after which serum glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) levels, duodenal mucosal GIP content, and GIP mRNA levels were nine times, 50% and 80%, respectively, greater than in control rats. To determine whether an increase in GIP gene expression might induce chronic desensitization of its receptor, normal rats were subjected to continuous intravenous GIP infusion. Serum GIP levels increased gradually in GIP-infused rats, and by 4 h a threefold increase was detected. In response to GIP infusion, the serum insulin concentration increased at 30 min, followed by a gradual decrease, and at 4 h, no increase in insulin levels was detected despite a sustained elevated serum GIP level. The response to glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) was preserved, a reporter cell line (LGIPR2) stably transfected with rat GIP receptor cDNA was studied. GIP stimulated adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production in LGIPR2 cells, which was first detected after 1 h of stimulation, reached maximum level at 4 h, and returned to basal concentrations by 16 h. Additional stimulation with GIP at 16 h did not affect cAMP generation, indicating desensitization of the GIP receptor by the ligand. In contrast, a response to prostaglandin E1 or forskolin in GIP-desensitization was a receptor-specific process. The results of these studies indicate that GIP gene expression is enhanced in diabetic animals and that elevated serum GIP level induces chronic desensitization of the GIP receptor in vivo and in a stably transfected cell line.

Aims: This work assessed the antihyperglycemic effect of Euphorbia guyoniana. Background: Euphorbia guyoniana (Boss. and Reut.) is widely used in traditional medicine. Objective: This study was designed to confirm this traditional use by assessing its antihyperglycemic capacity in vivo. Methods: The effect of the aqueous extract of Euphorbia guyoniana (Boss. and Reut.) (60 mg/kg) on glycemia in both normal and diabetic rats was evaluated. The glycogen content in the liver and skeletal muscles (extensor digitorum longus and soleus) was measured. Furthermore, liver histopathological analysis was performed. Results: The findings showed that Euphorbia guyoniana (Boss. and Reut.) exhibited a significant decrease in glycaemia in diabetic rats (from 20±2 mmol/l to 5.5 mmol/l after 6 hours of oral administration; p<0.0001 and from 20±2 mmol/l to 4.5 mmol/l after 7 days of once-daily repeated oral administration of the aqueous Euphorbia guyoniana extract; p<0.0001). In addition, the extract increased the glycogen content in the liver (41±4 mg/g versus 70±5 mg/g in normal and diabetic rats respectively) and extensor digitorum longus (39±4 mg/g versus 60±1 mg/g in normal and diabetic rats, respectively), and partially restored corporal weight in diabetic rats. Furthermore, this aqueous extract has been shown to suppress hyperglycemia induced by glucose load in treated diabetic rats. Additionally, hepatic histology in diabetic rats has been improved. This plant revealed the presence of several phytochemical constituents and possessed antioxidant activity. Conclusion: The current study evidenced that Euphorbia guyoniana (Boss. and Reut.) has a beneficial effect on improving hyperglycemia and glycogen depletion in the diabetic state.

This study validates the antidiabetic efficacy of Enantia chlorantha stem bark and the possible therapeutic implications of the co-administration of lisinopril and E. chlorantha in type 2 diabetic rats. E. chlorantha stem bark was extracted by cold maceration. The inhibitory effect of the plant on carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes and its antioxidative potentials were assessed in vitro. The extract exhibited α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities and also showed antioxidative properties in vitro. Administration of the extract normalized fasting hyperglycemia in vivo by showing 47.24% reduction in blood glucose levels relative to untreated diabetic rats. Co-administration of E. chlorantha and lisinopril restored serum glucose and serum lipid profile levels. E. chlorantha stem bark displayed antidiabetic potentials as compared with a standard antidiabetic drug (metformin). The study also showed that the plant contained some bioactive compounds which we hypothesize might be responsible for the observed activities. Co-administration of the plant with lisinopril conferred no significant therapeutic advantage on the serum glucose level and lipid profile.
