The effectsof garlic vinegar supplementation on body weight, blood blucose, and plasma triglyceride and cholesterol were investigated in streptozotocin -induced diabetic rats fed high-cholesterol(1%) diet for 4 wk. The garlic vinegar was made by fermenting 20% frsh garlic juice. There was no effect of garlic vinegar on body weight, plasma glucose or triglyceride concentrations in the diabetic rats. Plasma total -cholesterol concentrations were unaffected by garlic vinegarr supplementation. However, plasma LDL-cholesterol concentrations and atherogenic index were significantly lower in the diabetic rats supplemented with garlic vinegar diet than tin the cotnrol rats. The diabetic-rats supplemented with garlic vinegar not only had increased HDL-cholesterol levels but had decreased LDL-cholesterol. This alteration in the HDL/LDL-cholesterol ratio in the diabetic rats may decrease the risk of atheroscelrosis. Therefore, the over-all effect of garlic vinegar supplement may contribute to the antiatherogenic role in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.

Antidiabetic activities of white ginseng 50％ ethanol extract (WGE) and IH901, an intestinal metabolite of ginsenoside R $b_1$, were compared in multiple low dose streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. WGE or IH901 were coadministered with STZ on Day 1 at dose of 100 and 300 mg or 10 and 30 mg, respectively, and continually administered for 16 days. STZ dissolved in citrate boner was injected intraperitoneally at dose of 20 mg/kg for 5 consecutive days. During the experiment, plasma glucose level and body weight were measured every 4$^{th}$ day. Amount of food and water intake were evaluated once a week and compared between groups. WGE and IH901 both significantly reduced the plasma glucose levels on Day 16 as compared with those of the diabetic control group. In the meantime, amount of food and water intake in WGE-and IH901-treated groups were significantly improved in a dose dependent fashion as compared with those of the diabetic control group. Taken together WGE and IH901 showed the comparable antidiabetic activities at the corresponding doses used in this experiment.

Objectives : So-Dang-Hwan (SDH) is used as a traditional treatment of diabetes in oriental clinics in Korea. This study aimed to evaluate antidiabetic effect of SDH in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Methods : Diabetes was induced by i.p. injection of STZ (45 mg/kg) to Sprague-Dawley rats. Experimental animals (eight per group), were treated by oral administration of SDH (60 mg/kg body weight) and glibenclimide (1 mg/kg), a known antidiabetic drug for comparison, during 5 weeks. To veridy the effect of SDH, the levels of glucose, triglyceride, insulin, BUN and creatinine were measured in sera from experimental diabetic rats, and an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was also performed. Results : SDH prevented body weight loss in diabetic rats. SDH exhibited at termination, a significant reduction in blood glucose levels in STZ-induced diabetic rats. SDH significantly reduced serum creatinine levels toward the normal levels. The OGTT results showed a significant improvement in glucose tolerance in rats treated with SDH. Conclusions : These data indicate that SDH treatment may improve glocose homeostasis in STZ-induced diabetes.

Objectives : We performed this study in order to investigate the effects of Sedang-hwan(世糖丸) on the diabetes mellitus. Methods : We injected a vein with 65mg/kg of streptozotocin(STZ) on the rats. And then administered Sedang-hwan; 18.7mg/kg/day to sample groups and observed the weight and glucose level, insulin, C-peptide, triglyceride, albumin, T-protein, BUN(Blood Urea Nitrogen) and creatinine in blood. Results : 1. The sample groups showed a high suppressive effect of weight loss(P=0.002). 2. The sample groups' glucose level showed a effective in lowering level(P=0.001). 3. The sample groups showed a higher insulin level than control groups. 4. The sample groups showed a higher C-peptide level than control groups(P=0.001). 5. The sample groups' triglyceride level showed a effective in lowering level. 6. The sample groups showed a higher HDL-cholesterol level than control groups(P<0.001). 7. The sample groups showed a higher T-protein level than control groups(P=0.04). 8. The sample groups showed a higher albumin level than control groups(P<0.001). 9. The sample groups' creatinine level showed a effective in lowering level(P=0.04). 10. The sample groups' BUN level showed a effective in lowering level(P=0.03). Conclusions : Conclusively, Sedang-hwan was recognized to have decrease effect of serum glucose, triglyceride, creatinine, BUN of the diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin. It was suggested that Sedang-hwan can be used for effective diabetes mellitus medical treatment. It is also required to study further about detailed principles of blood-sugar dropping effect by Sedang-hwan, and recovery by diabetes mellitus.

The present study evaluated the beneficial effect of new diabetic formula(NDF) in diabetic rats. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250-300 g were used. Diabetes mellitus was induced by intramuscular injections of streptozotocin(STZ, 50㎎/㎏). The extracts of NDF were orally administered at low or high dose two times a day to fasted diabetic rats for 3 weeks. Adminstration of NDF alliviated a significant reduction in weight gain in rats with STZ-induced diabetes. Following acute and repeated treatment, low dose of NDF suppressed the blood glucose concentrations of fasted diabetic rats. Repeated adminstration of NDF for 21 days improved liver and kidney functions in diabetic rats, as indicated by decline of serum alanine aminotransferase(AL T), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), blood urea nitrogen(BUN), creatinine level and kidney weights. The present study showed that NDF exerted antihyperglycemic effects and alliviated liver and renal damages caused by streptozotocin-induced diabetes.

Diabetes mellitus, as a major health problem for the elderly, is associated with an extensive list of complications involving nearly every tissue in the body and has been shown to alter the properties of bone and impair fracture healing in both human and animals. The objective of this study was to examine the healing process of a mandibular fracture in the streptozotocin-induced rats histomorphometrically and histologically. A standardized fracture model was chosen and based on blood-glucose value at the time of surgery. A total of 11-weeks old 36 rats were divided into 2 groups; One is a streptozotocin-induced diabetic group and the other is a non-diabetic group. All was fractured experimentally. Three animals from each group were killed 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 weeks after fracture and specimens were processed undecalcified for quantitative bone histomorphometric and histologic studies. The diabetic group showed a significant decrease of histomorphometry-based parameter including trabecular bone volume, trabecular thickness in comparison to the non-diabetic rat. This was confirmed histologically. In conclusion, this study suggests that in streptozotocin-induced diabetics, the healing process of bone fracture was impaired and delayed about 2-3 weeks comparing to non-diabetics.
