A set of seventy four molecules belonging to the class of thioglitazones were subjected to the QSAR analysis for their antihyperglycemic activity. All the molecules were subjected to energy minimization to get 3D structures, followed by conformational analysis to get the conformation of the molecule associated with the least energy and highest stability. Various physico-chemical parameters were...

The aim of this study was investigate antihyperglycemic effect of ethyl acetate extracts of leaves and stem of Hypericum hookerianum (HH) as in streptozotocin and nicotinamide induced diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were administrated with leaf (HHL) and stem(HHS) extracts (200 mg/kg)of Hypericum hookerianum orally for 28days and blood glucose was measured once in week about 4weeks.The HHL extr...

We measured a vast range of parameters, in an attempt to further elucidate previously claimed antihyperglycemic activity of Butea monosperma. Our study clearly negates the possibility of antidiabetic activity by inhibited gastrointestinal enzyme action or by reduced glucose absorption. Reduction of fasting and postprandial glucose level was reconfirmed (P < 0.05). Improved serum lipid profile v...

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is recognized as a critical priority because of its epidemic nature. Successful diabetes treatment not yet established and nowadays, considered global problem. Recent medications have proved to be complete treating agents because, until now no one had completely cured diabetes. Current antidiabetic drugs many undesirable side effects. So, an alternative therapy required. ...

Rhizoma Coptidis (Huang Lian in Chinese pinyin) is among the most widely used traditional Chinese herbal medicines and has a profound history of more than 2000 years of being used as a therapeutic herb. The antidiabetic effects of Rhizoma Coptidis have been extensively investigated in animal experiments and clinical trials and its efficacy as a promising antihyperglycemic agent has been widely ...

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer and also one of the most poorly understood. Other health issues that are affecting women with increasing frequency are obesity and diabetes, which are associated with dysglycemia and increased blood glucose. The Warburg Effect describes the ability of fast-growing cancer cells to preferentially metabolize glucose via anaerobi...
