TLDR
The present study represents that the combination of HFD-fed and low-dose STZ-treated rat serves as an alternative animal model for type 2 diabetes simulating the human syndrome that is also suitable for testing anti-diabetic agents for the treatment of type 1 diabetes.

Synthesis and evaluation of new 1,2,4-oxadiazole based trans- acrylic acid derivatives as potential PPAR-alpha/gamma dual agonist

TL;DR: Trans- acrylic acid derivatives can be further developed as oral therapeutic agents for diabetic interventions as PPAR alpha/gamma dual agonists as well as in-silico toxicity and in- silico ADME properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zonisamide, an antiepileptic drug, alleviates diabetic cardiomyopathy by inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that ZNS improves the cardiac diastolic function in diabetic mice and prevents T2DM-induced cardiac hypertrophy by attenuating ER stress-mediated apoptosis.

Protective effect of gymnema sylvestre ethanol extract on high fat diet-induced obese diabetic wistar rats

TL;DR: Oral treatment with water soluble fraction of Gymnema sylvestre ethanol extract resulted in significant reduction in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, serum leptin, insulin, apolipoprotein B, lipids, glucose, cardiac caspase-3 levels, Na+/K+ ATPase activity and DNA laddering, visceral fat pad and organ's weight and improved the antioxidant enzymes levels in the high fat diet induced obesity in diabetic rats.

Effect of riceberry oil (deep purple oil; Oryza sativa Indica) supplementation on hyperglycemia and change in lipid profile in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats fed a high fat diet.

TL;DR: Findings in the present study demonstrate that RBBO, a nutraceutical food, may be useful as an alternative food supplement for the alleviation of hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detrusor contractility to parasympathetic mediators is differentially altered in the compensated and decompensated states of diabetic bladder dysfunction.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the compensated state of DBD progresses temporally into the decompensated state in the HFD/STZ male model of diabetes; therefore, this male HFD-STZ model can be used to study DBD progression.

PPAR-gamma: adipogenic regulator and thiazolidinedione receptor.

TL;DR: How advances in the understanding of nuclear receptor function, particularly the docking of cofactors in a ligand-dependent fashion, should lead to improved drugs that utilize the PPAR-gamma system for the treatment of insulin resistance is discussed.

Thiazolidinediones in the Treatment of Insulin Resistance and Type II Diabetes

TL;DR: Clinical studies in patients with type II diabetes, as well as other syndromes characterized by insulin resistance, have demonstrated that thiazolidinediones may represent a safe and effective new treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new rat model of type 2 diabetes: the fat-fed, streptozotocin-treated rat.

TL;DR: Fat-fed/STZ rats provide a novel animal model for type 2 diabetes, simulates the human syndrome, and is suitable for the testing of antidiabetic compounds.
