Effects of combined inositol hexakisphosphate and inositol supplement on antioxidant activity and metabolic enzymes in the liver of streptozotocin-induced type 2 diabetic rats.

TL;DR: Combined IP6 and inositol treatment resulted in the preservation of liver cell integrity and improved antioxidant status in type 2 diabetic rats.

Polyphenols-rich Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub. beans show hypoglycemic and β-cells protective effects in type 2 diabetic rats.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that C. tetragonoloba beans have therapeutic potential in HFD fed-STZ-induced hyperglycemia; therefore this can be used in the management of type 2 diabetes.

Cardioprotective and anti-hypertensive effects of Prosopis glandulosa in rat models of pre-diabetes

TL;DR: In this article, two-way ANOVA was used to compare the performance of different control and control groups in a two-group setting. But the results showed that p < 0.05 vs the respective control, and p > 0.001 vs the corresponding control.

Trans‐11 vaccenic acid improves insulin secretion in models of type 2 diabetes in vivo and in vitro

TL;DR: Results indicate that VA may improve insulin secretion and growth of islets in T2D, at least partly by altering GPR40 and REG-1α mRNA 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.
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.
