The available drugs for the treatment of diabetes, such as Insulin or Oral hypoglycemic agents have one or more side effects. So the search for newer anti-diabetic drugs with minimum or no side effects from herbal plants is a challenge as per world health organization (WHO) recommendations. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder of carbohydrate, protein and fat which are characterized by hyperglycemia, polyuria, polydipsia, and polyphagia which is deficient insulin production or ineffectiveness in insulin actions. The present study was aimed to evaluate the anti diabetic potency of syzygium cumini leaf on the blood glucose level in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Diabetic Wistar strain rats were treated with standard drug Glibenclamide and test drug syzygium cumini at 100mg, 200mg. The hypoglycemic effect was determined in the rats and the efficacy of the test drug was compared to the standard drug Glibenclamide. Syzygium cumini leaf was orally administered for 14 days in alloxan induced diabetic rats. At the end of the study duration blood glucose level and Biochemical parameters were statistically analyzed. Based on these results of the study this syzygium cumini produced a significant reduction in blood glucose levels when compared with diabetic control rats and hence the present research work proved that the syzygium cumini possess hypoglycemic effect.

Diabetes is a chronic disease which characterized by hyperglycemia (elevated or abnormally high blood sugar levels) and other metabolic disturbances, including metabolism of lipids and haemostasis. Caesalpinia pulcherrima has previously showed strong anti-diabetic and hepatoprotective potential. The present research work was to investigate the anti-diabetic activity and hepatoprotective activity Caesalpinia pulcherrima in streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetic rats. The dose-dependent effects of 45days oral treatment with methanol extract of plant (200 and 300mg/kg) of CPAE on body weight, blood glucose level, total protein, albumin, liver marker enzymes and carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes were evaluated in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Oral administration methanolic extract of Caesalpinia pulcherrima of showed significant restoration of the body weight and decrease in the blood glucose level, liver marker enzymes (ALT, AST ALP) and carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes were observed in diabetic rats. These results suggest that fruit extract of Caesalpinia pulcherrima has valuable anti-diabetic activity in STZ-induced diabetic rats which is comparable to the standard drug metformin and hence might be of use in the management of diabetes.

Combination therapy is considered as a new and effective therapeutic strategy for control of hyperglycemia. The present study aimed to determine the hypoglycemic effect of Afghan Hibiscus sabdariffa L. and Carum Carvi L. hydro-alcoholic extracts either alone or in combination on diabetic rats. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were administered intraperitoneally with hydro-alcoholic extracts of H. sabdariffa (75, 150 and 300 mg/kg), C. carvi (150, 300 and 500 mg/kg) and their combinations for 21 days. The Fasting blood glucose and body weight of rats were determined on 0, 7, 14 and 21st days. The results showed a significant (P<0.0001) hypoglycemic effect of H. sabdariffa extract (75, 150 and 300 mg/kg) on 7, 14 and 21th days, C. carvi extract (500 mg/kg), and their effective doses combination (75:25), especially on 7th day. Only 75 mg/kg of H. sabdariffa had positive effect on body weight loss of diabetic rats (P<0.05). One can conclude that Afghan H. sabdariffa and C. carvi hydro-alcoholic extracts and their combination have a hypoglycemic effect. However, their combinations do not have any synergic effects, so the hypoglycemic effect of H. sabdariffa was much greater and even normalized the blood glucose level.

Ethno pharmacological relevance: Traditionally different parts of Jasminum grandiflorum have been used to treat various ailments, including diabetes. However, antidiabetic potential of Jasminum grandiflorum on animal models of diabetes have not been evaluated. Aim of the study: The objective of this study was to determine antidiabetic potential of ethanol extract of leaves and flowers of Jasminum grandiflorum, and different fractions of the flower extract in rodent model of streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Materials and methods: Ethanol extract of both leaves and flowers of Jasminum grandiflorum were screened for the presence of various phytochemicals followed by acute and sub-acute toxicity in rats. Effect of Jasminum grandiflorum leaf and flower extracts on blood glucose level in normal albino rats, in glucose-overloaded healthy albino rats, and in streptozotocininduced diabetic rats was evaluated. Furthermore, based on preliminary results, fractionalization of the flower extract was carried out using petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol, and chloroform. Different fractions were further tested for hypoglycemic activity in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Results: Preliminary phytochemical evaluation suggested presence of various antidiabetic metabolites in both the extracts and were found to safe up to 5000 mg/kg dose. Flower extract (500 mg/kg, p.o.) demonstrated significant hypoglycemic effect than leaf extract (500 mg/kg, p.o.) in normal rats, glucose-overloaded rats, and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats when compared to control. Long-term effect of different fractions of ethanol extract of Jasminum grandiflorum flowers in streptozotocin model suggested that all four fractions were able to reduce blood glucose level in a time-dependent manner at 200 mg/kg dose with chloroform fraction being highly significant (p<0.001) amongst all when compared to diabetic untreated rats. Chloroform isolate from Jasminum grandiflorum flowers demonstrated enhanced glucose uptake and dosedependent cytotoxicity in L6 cell line. Conclusion: The ethanol extract of Jasminum grandiflorum flowers as well as its various fractions have potential therapeutic value in treating diabetes, which may be due to the presence of various antidiabetic metabolites, by enhancing insulin secretion and antioxidant defense. These observations rationalize its use as ethnomedicine and hence can be considered in treating diabetes.

Finger millet is a food crop with energy value, phytochemical constituents, and minerals, hence its use as whole flour for traditional food preparation among traditional people. The study was designed to determine the glycaemic index and blood glucose level in albino rats, and the antimicrobial potential of processed finger millets. Finger millets were processed by fermentation and roasting, and methanolic extracts obtained used to test antimicrobial activity. Albino rats (18) divided into three groups were fed fermented, roasted, and unprocessed millet (control), and glycaemic index and blood glucose level determined. Another 25 rat were treated into 5 groups of diabetic rats without treatment, diabetic rats treated daily with Metformin, diabetic rats fed 20% millet, diabetic rats fed 40% millet, and untreated group (control). At 100% concentration, roasted and fermented millet obtained inhibition of 15mm and 14mm against Salmonella typhi, while the control drug 25mg/ml streptomycin had 17mm inhibition. While values obtained for the glycemic indexes were close though significantly different from each other (roasted - 36.83±1.23; fermented - 38.73±1.87), roasted millet brought about the highest reduction in blood glucose level 90.9 and 65.1mg/dl at 60 and 120min respectively compared with fermented millet with 125.1 and 100.2mg/dl respectively at the same time. Animals administered finger millet in Groups 3 and 4-showed regeneration of the islet cells. The millet had the capacity to bring about healing of necrotic cells while also restoring and maintaining glucose levels in blood of subjects.
