Validation of the antihyperglycaemic and hepatoprotective activity of the flavonoid rich fraction of Brachychiton rupestris using in vivo experimental models and molecular modelling

TL;DR: This study provided scientific evidence on the antihyperglycemic and hepatoprotective activities of Brachychiton rupestris and ameliorated oxidative stress in both models as evidenced from oxidative stress markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochemistry, biological activities and economical uses of the genus Sterculia and the related genera: A reveiw

TL;DR: The wide range of the reported flavonoids in the present review is quite significant and can act as a guide for further studies from the chemosystematic point of view.

Rooting of cuttings of the wild Indian almond tree (Sterculia foetida) enhanced by the application of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) under leafy and non-leafy conditions

TL;DR: 0.8% IBA may be applied for rooting of cuttings of Sterculia foetida with different concentration of IBA in a non-mist propagator to reveal the importance using IBA treatments rather than the types of cutTings used.

The mechanism of alloxan and streptozotocin action in B cells of the rat pancreas.

TL;DR: The cytotoxic action of both these diabetogenic agents is mediated by reactive oxygen species, however, the source of their generation is different in the case of alloxan and streptozotocin.

Study of the anti-hyperglycemic effect of plants used as antidiabetics

TL;DR: The results showed that eight out of the 28 studied plants significantly decrease the hyperglycemic peak and/or the area under the glucose tolerance curve, suggesting the validity of their clinical use in diabetes mellitus control, after their toxicological investigation.
