Protective Effect of Proanthocyanidin against Diabetic Oxidative Stress
We investigated the antidiabetic potential of proanthocyanidin and its oligomeric form in STZ-induced diabetic model rats and db/db type 2 diabetic mice. Proanthocyanidin ameliorated the diabetic condition by significant decreases of serum glucose, glycosylated protein, and serum urea nitrogen as well as decreases of urinary protein and renal-AGE in STZ-induced diabetic rats and decrease of ser...
متن کاملPEDF in Diabetic Retinopathy: A Protective Effect of Oxidative Stress
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major cause of blindness in working age adults, and oxidative stress plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of DR. Pigment-epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), a multifunctional protein, has shown to inhibit the development of DR by accumulating evidence. This paper highlights the current understanding of probable mechanism about how PEDF blocks the deterioration of ...
متن کاملProanthocyanidin Attenuation of Oxidative Stress and NF-κB Protects Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mice against Diabetic Nephropathy
Hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia result in oxidative stress and play a major role in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). We explored the effects of proanthocyanidin (PA) on the induction and progression of DN in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. Diabetes Mellitus was induced in ten-week-old male apoE(-/-)mice using streptozotocin (STZ). Mice were fed with a high-fat diet in presence or...
متن کاملProtective effect of proanthocyanidin against oxidative ovarian damage induced by 3-nitropropionic acid in mice.
Oxidative stress, which poses a threat to reproductive health, causes many serious female reproductive diseases. In this study, we investigated whether proanthocyanidins (PC) have a protective effect against oxidative stress-induced ovarian damage. Forty female ICR mice were randomized into 4 groups: a control group, a control plus PC group, a 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NPA) group, and a 3-NPA pl...
متن کاملThe protective effect of auraptene against oxidative stress and pentylenetetrazol-induced chemical kindling in mice
It is believed that some pitfalls in the treatment of epilepsy including serious side effects of medications and drug resistance may be resolved by natural compounds. Auraptene is a natural coumarin that is found in many plants, particularly citrus peel. We hypothesized that auraptene might have anticonvulsant properties. Kindling was induced by repeated intraperitoneal (IP) injections of penty...
