  • Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the anti-diabetic effect of the fruit extract of Lycium chinense Mill(Lycii Fructus, LF) on multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.Methods : Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups; normal, STZ-control, Lycii Fructus extractorally administrated 300 ㎎/㎏ group (STZ-LF). Diabetes was induced in rats by consecutive injection of streptozotocin (STZ) at doses of 30 ㎎/㎏ for 5 days. After 4 weeks, all rats were sacrificed, Fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol (CHO), triglyceride (TG) and HDL-Cholesterol were measured in sera of rats. Histopathological changes of pancreas, kidney, liver and lung tissues were observed by microscope after H&E, Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and Masson's trichrome staining. The changes of body weight, blood glucose, and food and water intake were also measured.Results : There were no differences in body, food intake and water intake in LF-administrated groups compared with STZ control group. However, LF extract significantly decreased the levels of serum glucose, CHO, TG and HDL-Cholesterol in diabetic rats. In histopathological analysis of kidney, liver and lung, LF-administrated groups showed the inhibition of morphological damage.Conclusions : These results suggest that LF have a biological action on multi low-dose STZ-induced diabetes in rats via decreasing the serum glucose, TG and TG levels and may protect the morphological changes of kidney, liver and lung.

  • 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.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vitamin B2 deficiency on fuel metabolism in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Thirty rats were fed a vitamin B2 deticient diet(-B2) or a control diet (+B2) for 2 weeks and then subdivided into 3 groups respectively : base group, one day diabetic group and three day diabetic group. Diabetes of the rats were induced by streptozotocin injection into the tail vein. Glucose, glycogen, protein, alanine, triglyceride and free fatty acid were compared in plasma, liver, skeletal muscle of rats. Also, the total urinary nitrogen and glucose excertion were compared. Compared with +B2 rats, the increase of plasm glucose in -B2 rats due to the diabetes tended to be smaller. After diabetes were induced, the levels of plasma protein and alanine was significantly decreased and the urinary nitrogen excretion was significantly increased in -B2 rats. The level of plasma free fatty acid was increased continuously in B2 rats while increased at the first day and decreased at the third day diabetes was induced in +B2 rats. These results suggest that vitamin B2 deficiency increase protein catabolism due to the decrease of fatty acid oxidation. Thus, vitamin B2 deficiency in diabetes impair the adaptation of animals to the fuel metabolism and aggravate the body protein wasting which is one of the chronic complications of diabetes.

  • In order to investigate experimented effects of Indongdeung Jigolpi-Tang, which is applied to Soyangin, to diabetes, the measurement, comparison and observation made on the contents of volumes of blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipid, total protein and electrolyte($K^+$, $Na^+$) in blood serum by giving a high blood glucose, induced by streptozotocin, to hyperglycemic rats, dosing the cooked liquid of I.J.T., and following conclusion was attained. 1. The volume of glucose urine, induced by streptozotocin to hyperglycemic rats, was shown an increase in comparision to a normal flock when $12.50m{\ell}/kg$ of I.J.T. dosed to the rats and checked after two and four weeks and thereby, a sinificant reduction in the volume of blood glucose was made. 2. The volume of total cholesterol of blood serum in the diabetic rats, induced by streptozotocin, was increased in comparision to the normal flock, and in the fouth week of dosing $1.25m{\ell}/kg$ of I.J.T., a significant reduction of total cholesterol volum was shown in the blood serum. 3. The volume of triglyceride in the blood serum of the diabetic rats, induced by the streptozotocin, was increased in comparision to the normal flock, and with dosing $1.25m{\ell}/kg$ and $12.50m{\ell}/kg$ of I.J.T., a significant reduction of triglyceride volium was shwon in the blood serum after second and fourth week. 4. The volume of phospholipid in the blood serum of the diabetic rats, induced by the streptozotocin, was somewhat reduced in comparision to the normal flock, and with dosing $1.25m{\ell}/kg$ of I.J.T., a significant reduction of phospholipid volium in the blood serum was shown after first and second week. 5. The volume of total protein in the blood serum of the diabetic rats, induced by the streptozotocin, was somewhat reduced in comparison to the normal flock however, with dosing the I.J.T., no significant change on the volium of total protein was made in the blood serum. 6. The volume of potassium in the blood serum of the diabetic rats, induced by the streptozotocin, was increased in comparision to the normal flock however, with dosing the I.J.T., no significant change of potassium content was made in the blood serum. 7. The volume of sodium in the blood serum of the diabetic rats, induced by the streptozotocin, was somewhat reduced in comparision to the normal flock, and with dosing $12.50m{\ell}/kg$ of the I.J.T., a significant increase was shown in the blood serum after first week. Soyangin, accompanying with a middle and upper heat, the I.J.T. - that has a merits of cleaning up fever, solving fever, solving poison, solving thirst and restoring exhaustion - can be proved that it has a blood sugar reduction effect and it is considered that it can be meritorious for strengthening vitality, further, many other exhausting diseases, and can actively used for the cases such as thirst causing disease and a disease that causes an abnormal food hunger, thirst causing and frequent going to pass urine, in particular.

  • Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin. Etiological studies of diabetes and its complications showed that oxidative stress might play a major role. Therefore, many efforts have been tried to regulate free oxygen radicals for treating diabetes and its complications. Gamigukihwandong-hwan has been known to be effective for the treatment of diabetes. The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of Gamigukihwandong-hwan on renal function, peroxynitrite (ONOO$^-$) scavenging activity and polyol pathway in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The crushed Gamigukihwandong-hwan was extracted 3 times, each time with 3 volumes of methyl alcohol at 60$^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. The extract was filtered and evaporated under a reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator to yield 74.95 g. Gamigukihwandong-hwan extract was oral-administered 100 mg per 1 kg of body weight for 20 days to the diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin (60 mg/kg). The effects of Gamigukihwandong-hwan extract on the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were observed by measuring the serum level of glucose, insulin, lipid components, creatinine and BUN, and also the kidney levels of superoxide anion radical (${\cdot}O_2^-$), nitric oxide (NO) and ONOO$^-$, and also the enzyme activities involved in polyol pathway. The Effects of Gamigukihwandong-hwan on the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with regards to body weight, blood glucose and insulin levels, creatinine and BUN levels, total cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and HDL-cholesterol levels were all shown to be good enough to cure and prevent the diabetes and its complications. Gamigukihwandong-hwan inhibited the generation of ${\cdot}O_2^-$, NO and ONOO$^-$ in the kidney of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Renal aldose reductase and sorbitol dehydrogenase activities were increased in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, whereas the ones in the Gamigukihwandong-hwan administered group among the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were reversed toward the natural activities. Gamigukihwandong-hwan might inhibit the development of diabetic nephropathy by scavenging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, thereby by reducing oxidative stresses and also by regulating the activities of polyol pathway enzymes, all of which could help to recover the function of kidney.

  • The present study was carried out to investigate the antidiabetic and antioxidant effect of methanolic extract of Berberis tinctoria leaves (MEBT), in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Oral administration of MEBT extract (150 mg/kg and 300 mg/kg) for a period of 14 days. Blood glucose levels, body weight food and liquid intake were measured on every $5^{th}$ day over a period of 14 days. In diabetic rats, MEBT at the dose of 150 mg/kg and 300 mg/kg body weight resulted in significant reduction in blood glucose levels. The study was further investigated to determine antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic potential of MEBT in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. These results suggest that the MEBT possess antidiabetic activity and is able to ameliorate biochemical damages in STZ induced diabetic rats and the results were found to be in a dose dependent manner.

  • Background: It is controversial whether the change in nitric oxide (NO) expression in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) may be responsible for developtment and/or maintenance of painful diabetic neuropathy. The aim of this study was to clarify the role of NO in the pathogenesis of painful diabetic neuropathy. Methods: The effect of L-nitroargine methylester (L-NAME) or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on allodynia was measured in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. NO concentration was measured in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma of the diabetic rats. NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemistry was performed on the DRG and spinal cords of the STZ-induced diabetic rats. Results: L-NAME, an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, alleviated allodynia, while SNP, a nitric oxide donor, aggravated allodynia in diabetic rats. Plasma NO level in the diabetic rats was significantly decreased compared with control rats. NO level in the CSF of diabetic rats did not differ from that of the control rats. NADPH-d positive cells were decreased in the DRG of diabetic rats. However, NADPH-d histochemistry in the diabetic spinal cord was not different from that of the control rats. Conclusions: Downregulation of NO expression in the diabetic rats may not be causally related to the development and/or maintenance of painful diabetic neuropathy.

  • Rhus verniciflua Stokes(RVS) has been widely used as a food and traditional herbal medicine in Korea. RVS has been reported that the extract from its wood and fruit has strong antioxidant activity and anticancer effect but there is little information on Lacca Sinica Exsiccata(LSE), the resin of RVS, as a medicinal use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antidiabetic effect of ethanol-eluted extract of LSE on streptozotocin(STZ) - induced diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats with STZ injection. Oral administration of LSE extract(50mg or 100mg/kg of body weight/day) was given to diabetic group. During 4 weeks of experiment, diabetic rats showed significant weight loss and decreasing feed efficiency ratios(FER) compared with normal rats, while the diabetic group orally fed with LSE extract showed a trend of decreasing weight loss and a significant increase of FER(p<0.05). In 4 weeks after induction of diabetes, diabetic rats showed an increase in weight of liver, kidney and heart, whereas the diabetic rats administered with LSE extract showed a reduction in the weight of heart. Blood glucose level was decreased in diabetic rats treated with LSE extract, but it was not statistically significant. Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, Glutamic pyruvate transaminase and total cholesterol levels were lower in the diabetic group treated with LSE extract than in untreated diabetic group, but not significant. These results present that LSE may partly have antidiabetic effect and may protect against the development of diabetic heart complications resulting from impaired glucose metabolism.

  • The present study was designed to investigate the hypoglycaemic and hypolipidaemic activities of Qurs-e-Ziabetus 16 (QZ-16) in Streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. QZ-16, a polypharmaceutical herbomineral formulation developed on the principles of Unani medicine is used for non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The elevated levels of fasting blood glucose, serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides and urea observed in rats treated with STZ (55 mg/kg body wt.) were significantly reduced by the treatment of QZ-16 (240 mg/kg, p.o.) and gliclazide (30 mg/kg, p.o.). The reduced HDL cholesterol levels were also increased by the QZ-16 and gliclazide treatments in the STZ induced diabetic rats. These data show that QZ-16 has hypoglycaemic, hypolipidaemic properties in STZ induced diabetic rats.
