In 2017, the Korean Diabetes Association (KDA) published a position statement on the use of antihyperglycemic agents for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The KDA regularly updates its Clinical Practice Guidelines, but since the last update in 2015, many results from clinical trials have been introduced, and domestic data from studies performed in Korean patients with T2DM have bee...

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...

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...
