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.

In recent years,green tea and ginger have become a subject of interest because of their beneficial effects on human health. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of long term administration of green tea and ginger each alone to the effect of their combination on blood glucose level in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Method: A group of 50 male albino rats was divided into five groups (10 rats each group). The normal control group( NC) administered tap water, other animals were injected by streptozotocin 45mg/Kg body weight intraperitonially to induce diabetes mellitus and then divided into four groups ,diabetic control (DC) without treatment, diabetic group administered green tea extract for four weeks (DGT), diabetic group administered ginger extract for four weeks(DGI), and diabetic group administered mixture of green tea and ginger for four weeks (DGG), then we compare the blood glucose level at 1st,2nd,3rd, and 4th week of experiment. Results:We observed that in groups whose water drink was substituted by green tea and ginger extract, the blood glucose level was significantly( p less than 0.05) reduced as compared to diabetic animals. Importantly, we observed that blood glucose level was near control level when green tea was administered simultaneously with ginger extract.Conclusion: Combination of green tea and ginger may be of great value as hypoglycemic agent in diabetic patients, the synergism of their effect on glucose regulation process is underlying this results.

According to WHO, the prevalence of diabetes is likely to increase by 35%. Currently there are over 150 million diabetics worldwide and this is likely to increase to 300 million or more by the year 2025. International Diabetes Federation (IFD) estimates the total number of diabetic subjects to be around 40.9 million in India and this if further set to rise to 66.9 million by the 2025. In view of the above discussion this study was undertaken to investigate antidiabetic activity of herbal tablet of Terminalia chebula in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Solid pharmaceutical dosage formulations using a novel dry plant extract (Terminalia chebula fruits) using various excipients i.e.carbopol, lactose, gelatin, magnesium stearate and dicalcium phosphate by the wet granulation was reported to the statically significant. The present communication deals with the evaluation of formulated tablets (weight variation, friability and hardness and disintegration time). Diabetes was induced in Wistar albino rats (170-200g) by a single dose (I.P.) of alloxan monohydrate (150mg/kg) dissolved in normal saline, treatment were given orally for 21days and blood glucose level was estimated on Two different batches of herbal tablets of Terminalia chebula extract (carbopol & gelatin) were studied for blood glucose level in two different groups of animals. Oral administration of Terminalia chebula tablet having carbopol to diabetic rats at a dose of 200mg/kg body weight to wistar rats in a significant reduction in biochemical parameters in alloxan diabetic rats, and the best formulation according to disintegration time. Thus our investigation clearly shows that the Terminalia chebula tablet has antidiabetic effects.

The effects of crude aqueous extract of Ehretia anacua on alloxan induced diabetic rats was investigated. Male albino rats of weighing between 120 to 150 were used, divided into 6 groups of five animals per group. Group I received distilled water throughout of the experiment and served as the control. Group II received 110 mg/kg of alloxan interperitoneally. Groups III, IV, V and VI received 110 mg/kg of alloxan and in addition administered with aqueous Ehretia anacua extract daily for 14 days. Blood glucose level was monitored at five days interval for fourteen days. Target organs (pancrease) was taken from each rat. The histopathological studies of the pancrease were examined. In alloxan - induced diabetic rats, blood glucose level was significantly increased compared with the control rats. Treating diabetic rats with 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg bw Ehretia anacua caused a significant decrease in the blood glucose level. The Photomicrograph of the histopathology examination of the pancrease (× 100) of the groups treated with alloxan showed poor architecture was destroyed whereas those treated with Ehretia nancua showed normal architecture. This illustrates the amelliorative effects of the extract on the alloxan-induced tocicity. It could be concluded from these results that, Ehretia nancua extract should be used in manufacture processes of the natural products as functional foods or as a dietary supplement with anti-diabecretic activity as hypoglycemic effect.
