AIM Sheep milk-born bioactive peptides have been found to exhibit various physiological activities. The present work was designed with the aim to evaluate the effect of boiling on antidiabetic property of peptides derived from sheep milk caseinate on hydrolysis with three different proteases. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this investigation, casein prepared from raw and boiled sheep milk was hydro...

BACKGROUND Ojamin (OJ), a polyherbal antidiabetic formulation, is extensively used as a food supplement to control diabetes alone or along with synthetic antidiabetic agents. However, it's phytochemical and pharmacological investigations are lacking. OBJECTIVE The present study was undertaken to study antidiabetic and antihyperlipidemic potentials of OJ and its interaction with Metformin in s...

UNLABELLED Aims/Introduction:  To compare clinical consequences of using inretin-based medications versus conventional antidiabetic agents as add-on to metformin in case of monotherapy failure in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS   The medical literature including recent abstracts from international diabetes conferences was searched for reports from clinical trials with inc...

Diabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders worldwide. It is a major health problem with its frequency increasing every day in most countries. The disease is generally believed to be incurable; and the few orthodox drugs available to manage the disease are not readily affordable to the poor. Based on the historical success of natural products as antidiabetic agents and the ever incre...

The bioassay-guided isolation and purification of an ethyl acetate extract of Aspergillus terreus MC751 led to the characterization of butyrolactone I as an antidiabetic and antioxidant. The antidiabetic activity of butyrolactone I was evaluated by αglucosidase and α-amylase inhibition assays. Butyrolactone I demonstrated significant concentration-dependent, mixed-type inhibitory activity again...

Objective(s): Bidens species are used for their antidiabetic properties traditionally in many countries. Aim of this study is to evaluate hypoglycaemic and antidiabetic activity of Bidens tripartita extract and to identify its active compounds through bioactivity guided isolation technique. Materials and Methods: Hypoglycaemic effects of B. tripartita extract and its sub-extracts were investig...
