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.

Metabolic alteration in obese diabetes rats upon treatment with Centella asiatica extract.

TL;DR: A long-term treatment of obese diabetic rats with CA extract could reverse the glucose and lipid levels, as well as the tricarboxylic acid cycle and amino acid metabolic disorders, back towards normal states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antidiabetic effect and mechanism of chitooligosaccharides.

TL;DR: Results from the present study indicate COS have protective effect for type 2 diabetes by ameliorating insulin resistance, promoting the proliferation of beta cells, increasing insulin secretion and protecting beta cells.

Effects of White Rice, Brown Rice and Germinated Brown Rice on Antioxidant Status of Type 2 Diabetic Rats

TL;DR: The results provide insight into the effects of different rice types on antioxidant status in type 2 diabetes and suggest that WR consumption, contrary to BR and GBR, may worsen antioxidant status that may lead to more damage by free radicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exacerbation of poststroke dementia by type 2 diabetes is associated with synergistic increases of β-secretase activation and β-amyloid generation in rat brains

TL;DR: It is concluded that type 2 diabetes exacerbated poststroke dementia possibly due to brain injury and synergistic generation of Abeta via activation of BACE1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A, improves learning and memory in high-fat diet-induced cognitive deficits in mice.

TL;DR: It may be suggested that HDAC inhibition could be a novel therapeutic strategy to combat cognitive impairment associated with metabolic syndrome.

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.
