ABSTRACTThis study aimed to obtain the proportion of white rice and kepok banana based on sensory test results and the glycemic index of white rice with a substitution of kepok bananas. The research design used was an experimental method with a non-factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The variation was in the proportion of white rice and kepok banana namely 60% : 40% (NP1), 50% : 50% (NP2) dan 40% : 60% (NP3). Each treatment was repeated three times. The sensory test was carried out using the hedonic test (level of preferences). The glycemic index was analyzed through the area under the curve (AUC) ratio of glucose response of food by measuring blood glucose levels during fasting for 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after consuming test foods (white rice with a substitution of kepok banana) and control (bread). The collected data were then analyzed using ANOVA and was followed by DMRT if there was a significant difference between treatments. The result of the research shows that in the sensory test, the proportion of white rice and kepok banana had no significant effect on color and aroma, but had a significant effect on texture and very significant effect on the taste of white rice with a substitution of kepok banana. The best treatment was obtained in the proportion of white rice and kepok banana 60%: 40% (NP1), with preference scores of color, aroma, texture, and taste reached 3.08 (like), 2.68 (like), 3.16 (like) and 3.12 (like), respectively. The selected treatment had a 20.13% glycemic index (low).Keywords: Sensory test, glycemic index,white rice, kepok banana,diabetes mellitusABSTRAKTujuan penelitian untuk mendapatkan perbandingan nasi beras putih dan pisang kepok yang terbaik berdasarkan hasil uji sensori dan indeks glikemik nasi beras putih yang disubtitusi pisang kepok.

Glycemic index of growol cookies: snack development study for people with diabetes mellitusBackground: Low-glycemic foods with high fiber content have been shown to control blood glucose in diabetics. Growol, cassava fermented food, can be potentially developed as a functional food for diabetics. Growol has higher dietary fiber and lower total sugar, reducing sugar, and sucrose compared to cassava. Carbohydrates in growol combined with roasting processing techniques into cookies products may potentially change the glycemic index of the product.Objective: To examine the potency of growol cookies as a snack for diabetics in terms of the glycemic index of cookies.Methods: This observational laboratory study analyzed the glycemic index of growol cookies compared to glucose and control cookies. The study was conducted from April to October 2019. Ten subjects were involved in the glycemic index measurement. The glycemic index was analyzed through the area under the curve (AUC) ratio of glucose response of food by measuring blood glucose levels during fasting; 30; 60; 90; and 120 minutes after consuming test foods (growol cookies and control cookies).Results: AUC for glucose, control cookies, and growol cookies were 13,669.5; 11,886; and 11,941.5. The glucose glycemic index was 100, while the glycemic index of control cookies and growol cookies was 87. Both control cookies and growol cookies are high glycemic index food. There was an AUC difference between glucose and control cookies (p=0.001) and between glucose and growol cookies (p=0.001). The difference in AUC between control cookies and growol cookies (p=0.991) was not seen.Conclusions: Growol cookies have a lower glycemic index than glucose, but it still cannot be consumed as an alternative snack for diabetics.

The natto containing high levels of gamma-polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) was recently developed. We investigated the effect of γ-PGA-rich natto consumption on postprandial glycemic excursion in humans. A randomized crossover meal test study was performed on healthy volunteers aged 20–64 years using the following test meals: (1) white rice (WR), (2) low-γ-PGA natto meal (WR + low-γ-PGA natto), and (3) high-γ-PGA natto meal (WR + high-γ-PGA natto). Blood samples were obtained at each visit before and for 120 min after loading. The incremental area under the curve (IAUC) of blood glucose and insulin levels was calculated and compared among the test meals. The blood glucose’s IAUC at 0–120 min, the primary endpoint, was 20.1% and 15.4% lower for the high- and low-γ-PGA natto meal than for the WR, with a significant difference only between the high-γ-PGA natto meal and WR (p < 0.05). The blood glucose’s IAUC at 0–15, 0–30, and 0–45 min was lower for the high-γ-PGA natto meal than for the low-γ-PGA natto meal (all p < 0.05). The possibility that high-γ-PGA natto might suppress blood glucose elevations in the early phase after eating is indicated.

The objective was to determine the glycemic index (GI) of Nutritional product for Diabetes Mellitus through measuring glycemic responses to reference food (Glucose) and test among nutritional product 13 participants. The study was a self-controlled clinical trial with 13 qualified participants (8 men and 5 women). They were required to go through the study protocol with reference food and test food. For each individual, seven blood samples were taken in the fasting state and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after ingestion. Our results show that at all measurement points, the blood glucose levels after consumption of test food were lower than after consumption of reference food. The incremental area under the curve (iAUC) and a GI value of Nutritional product (NP) were calculated for each meal. Mean ± SD of GI value was calculated for test food for the combined group of subjects. Mean iAUC and GI value of Nutritional product were 62,1 ± 12,5 mmol·min/L and 44,9 ± 7,2, significantly lower to those of reference food, which were 132,6 ± 14,8 mmol·min/L and 100, respectively. Finding from the study demonstrated that Nutritional product (GI = 44,9) would be classified as a low – GI food.

Unrestrained mice were centrifuged for varying periods ranging from 0.5 to 10 hr at 2.5, 5, and 10 x gravity. Liver glycogen and blood glucose levels increased significantly depending on the g load and exposure time. Adrenalectomy completely abolished the glycogen deposition response. The glycogen response was a critical function of the age of mice; unweaned mice did not respond. Blood corticosterone increased significantly prior to the deposition of glycogen. Centrifuged fed mice deposited three times the amount of glycogen of fasted mice. There was no significant difference in the amount of glycogen deposited in centrifuged mice previously starved for 1, 2, or 3 days. It is concluded that the increased glycogen deposited following centrifugation is effected by an increased elaboration of adrenal corticosterone.

The Impact

Blockade of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) reduces albuminuria, attenuates hyperfiltration, and slows the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) by preventing vasoconstriction and subsequent increases in glomerular hydrostatic pressure. Since RAS blockade disrupts Ang II signaling in all tissues, the specific contribution of vascular actions of AT1 receptors in DN has been difficult to delineate. Therefore, we generated 129 SvEv mice with cell-specific loss of AT1A from VSMCs (SMKOs) using Cre-loxp . To eliminate AT1R from VSMCs, we crossed the SMKO mice with AT1BR -/- mice, lacking the minor AT1B isoform. To study the impact of vascular AT1R in DN, we crossed the AT1B- null SMKOs with mice having the Ins2 C96Y AKITA mutation, which develop DM1 early. To enhance kidney injury, mice underwent uninephrectomy (UNX) at 11wks. Blood glucose levels were elevated (~500mg/dL) and similar at 10, 16 and 24wks between the two groups. Prior to UNX, albuminuria was similar between Control AKITA and AT1B- null SMKO AKITA (62±10 Control AKITA versus 107±27 μg/24hrs SMKO AKITA, P=NS). Albuminuria increased with age in both Control Akita and AT1B- null SMKO AKITA but without significant differences between the groups at 16wks (307±106 vs 313±117 μg/24hrs; P=NS) or 24wks (494±236 versus 730±217 μg/24hrs; P=NS), despite a trend toward higher albuminuria in AT1B- null SMKO AKITAs. There was no significant difference in GFR (using FITC-inulin) between non-diabetic Control and AT1B- null SMKO (15.6±1.2 vs 14.8±0.8 μl/min/g BW), and hyperfiltration was observed in both Control AKITA (23.7±2.4 μl/min/g BW; P=0.003) and AT1B- null SMKO AKITA mice (20.7±1.7 μl/min/g BW; P=0.01) relative to their non-diabetic comparators. However, there was no significant difference in GFR between ControlAKITA and AT1B- null SMKO AKITA (P=NS). Finally we measured mRNA levels of putative kidney injury markers by RTqPCR and found no differences in levels of Col1A1 , NGAL , or TGFB1 mRNA between Control AKITA and AT1B null SMKO AKITA. Our studies indicate that the absence of vascular AT1R responses is not sufficient to reduce albuminuria and prevent hyperfiltration in a mouse model of DN. This suggests that blockade of AT1R in other cell lineages may contribute to beneficial actions of ARBs in DN.

Maintaining a lifestyle can reduce the incidence of DM (diabetes mellitus). DM occurs due to insulin disorders so that blood glucose levels increase, which can lead to various complications. The management of blood glucose levels by activating the insulin function can be done by using natural ingredients such as the Yakon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) plant. Yakon leaves contain phenol which can reduce blood glucose. The design of this study was experimental with a pre-posttest approach with control-group design, using male and healthy white rats (Rattus norvegicus). Rats were divided into 3 groups, treatment dose 1, treatment dose 2 and control. The rats were given a high carbohydrate diet during 9 weeks to make the rats hyperglycemic. In the treatment group, dose 1 was 150 mg/kg BW, dose 2 was 300 mg kg BW, and was given for 3 days. The results showed that the rats in the treatment group dose 1 had decreased in the average blood sugar level of 114.10 mg / dl (p 0.002) and dose 2 was 105.27 mg / dl (p 0.005). This showed that there was an effect of treatments on blood sugar levels. The comparison results showed that there was a significant difference between the dose 1, the dose 2 group and the control (Sig. (2-tailed) = 0.001 (α) = 0.05). There was no significant difference in the treatment group dose 1 and treatment dose 2 (Sig. (2-tailed) = 0.693, (α) = 0.05). Yakon leaves can be used alternative to lower to control blood glucose levels in rats receiving a high-carbohydrate diet

Tithonia diversifolia is a plant that has the potential to reduce blood glucose levels that is crucial in Diabetes Mellitus therapy. This study aims to determine the active compounds contained in the extract of T. diversifolia leaves decoction, the effect of decoction extract on the reduction of blood glucose, and the most effective decoction extract to reduce blood glucose levels as well. The study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with the research treatment groups, namely: Kn = normal control (normal mice and not given leaves decoction extract), Ka = STZ control (DM mice, which are normal mice induced by 65mg/Kg of STZ), Kp = treatment control (normal mice given leaf decoction extract) , P1 = DM + mice were given young leaf decoction extract, P2 = DM + mice were given a mixture of young leaf and adult leaf decoction extract, P3 = DM + mice were given adult leaf decoction extract. The leaves used for decoction were 1-6 leaves from the shoots. The analysis of T. diversifolia leaves decoction compounds is using the visible spectrophotometers for tannins, phenols and flavonoids and GC-MS for terpenoid analysis. The result found that Tithonia diversifolia leaves decoction extracts contain tannins, flavonoids and phenols, while terpenoids are not detected. The leaves decoction extracts of T. diversifolia influenced the decreases in blood glucose levels of DM mice, especially the decoction extract of adult leaves which reduced blood glucose levels to 71.16%.

Aim and objective: Clerodendrum thomsoniae leaves are used in Cameroon to manage diabetes and its related disorders. The study aimed at investigating the antidiabetic effect of the aqueous extract on diet and dexamethasone induced diabetic rats. Methods: Young mature leaves of C thomsoniae were dried, finely powdered and submitted to aqueous extraction. The dehydrated extract was tested in rats at 3 doses 312.5, 625 and 1250 mg/kg based on the local use of the plant. The effect of the extract on the fasting blood glucose in normoglycemic rats and MACAPOS 1 type diet induced diabetic rats, using respectively glibenclamide and metformin as positive control groups, were investigated. Results: AECT significantly reduced blood glucose levels in normoglycemic rats (p<0.05) two hours after administration, from 83±2 mg/dL to 57.39±1.7 mg/dL with the dose of 1250 mg/kg. given the highest reduction rate of 30.86%. In normoglycemic rats 30 minutes after oral glucose overload, the maximum reduction rate was observed with glibenclamide 5 mg / kg and calculated at 49.90% followed by 36.39%, for the extract at 1250 mg / kg. After 30 days of repeated oral administration, AECT produced a reduction on blood glucose levels (p<0.05) in type 2 diabetic rats. This reduction in blood sugar was much more expressed with the dose of 1250mg/kg (73.52±0.71 mg/dL) followed by metformin 38mg/kg (70.21±0.89 mg/dL) as the normal control with no significant difference (P < 0.05). Conclusion: These results show that the antidiabetic activity of AECT can be explained by insulin stimulating effect, also give support to the traditional use of this plant.                   Peer Review History: Received 11 May 2021; Revised 17 June; Accepted 27 June, Available online 15 July 2021 Academic Editor: Dr. Asia Selman Abdullah,  Al-Razi university, Department of Pharmacy, Yemen, [email protected] UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system.

Abstract It is necessary to consider the factors affecting the dynamics and blood glucose (BG) level to maintain a horse’s high performance and health during intensive training. The study aimed to research the influence of the feeding regime on the change in BG level in the Orlov trotter horses during the period of intensive training (summer) in the conditions of the stud farm’s training center in the Kaluga region (Russia). Horses aged 2 to 4 years, stallions (n = 7), and mares (n = 5) received commercial mixed feed three times a day and grass hay in free access. Four times a week after lunch, horses are released into the paddock with cut grass. Blood was collected from the jugular vein. Blood was collected before morning feeding and then every hour until four h after morning and afternoon feeding. The dynamics of BG changes depending on the presence or absence of the grass paddock after feeding were evaluated. If horses remained in the stall after feeding, the BG level gradually increased, reaching a maximum (4.95 ± 0.21 mmol/L) 3 hours after feeding and was significantly higher (P ≤ 0.05) than when they were immediately moved to the paddock with grass. The maximum BG concentration in horses in the paddock was observed 1 hour after feeding (4.55 ± 0.21 mmol/L); it didn’t have significant differences with the BG level after 1 hour in “stall horses” (4.5 ± 0.14 mmol/L). Then the BG level of the “paddock horses” gradually decreased, and in the “stall horses” increased. No significant difference in BG levels was observed 4 hours after feeding. When horses can walk in a paddock after feeding concentrates and eat grass, blood glucose levels do not rise and tend to decrease.
