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.

QCM-4, a 5-HT₃ receptor antagonist ameliorates plasma HPA axis hyperactivity, leptin resistance and brain oxidative stress in depression and anxiety-like behavior in obese mice.

TL;DR: QCM-4 showed antidepressive and anxiolytic effect by reversing the behavioral alterations that were supported by biochemical estimations in obese mice.

Deferoxamine-activated hypoxia-inducible factor-1 restores cardioprotective effects of sevoflurane postconditioning in diabetic rats.

TL;DR: This study investigated whether deferoxamine (DFO)‐induced activation of HIF‐1 signalling pathway can restore the cardioprotective effects of SpostC in diabetic rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

High fat diet feeding induced insulin resistance exacerbates 6-OHDA mediated neurotoxicity and behavioral abnormalities in rats.

TL;DR: Interestingly, it was found that exposure to HFD exacerbated the effects of 6‐OHDA on striatal dopamine loss and behavioral parameters in rats, indicating that HFD‐induced insulin resistance is associated with a diminished capacity of dopaminergic neurons to cope with 6‐ OHDA mediated neurotoxicity.

Antidiabetic Effect of Sargassum wightii and Ulva fasciata in High fat diet and Multi Low Dose Streptozotocin Induced Type 2 Diabetic Mice

TL;DR: The findings suggest that these seaweeds offer a great opportunity to satisfy the food and nutrition requirement for rectifying and controlling diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vitamin K2 alleviates type 2 diabetes in rats by induction of osteocalcin gene expression.

TL;DR: Vit K2 administration could improve glycemic status in type 2 diabetic rats by induction of OC gene expression and Osteocalcin could increase β-cell proliferation, energy expenditure, and adiponectin expression.

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.

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.
