This investigation was aimed at the study of the antidiabetic activity and effect on hepatic glutathione metabolism of polysaccharide from Trichosanthes kirilowii in hyperglycemic rats with aboxan (175 mg/Kg, i.p.). As the results, the polysaccharide inhibited the increase of blood glucose, triglyceride level and lactate dehydrogenase activity, but cholesterol not changed. And it increased protein bound-SH, nonprotein bound-SH, glutathione level and inhibited the decrease of glutathione S-transferase.
