conclusions it can be concluded that the nettle extract can reduce blood glucose levels in diabetic mice, at least partly, by influencing the glut2 gene expression in mice liver. results the results showed that the nettle extract significantly decreased high levels of blood glucose (p < 0.001). the nettle extract also had a preventive effect on decrease in body weight. in addition, the results ...

the present study was conducted to test the effect of origanum majoranum extract (ome) of leaves on alterations induced in a model of type 2 diabetic rats. adult male wistar rats were fed high fat diet for 3 weeks and injected a single dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rats. diabetic rats were given aqueous extract of ome in a dose of 20 mg/kg orally ...

background: in diabetes mellitus because of the absence or insufficient sensitivity to insulin, glucose transporter protein in cell membrane, glucose transporter 4, is decreased. glut4 is the major glucose transporter in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, which is under control of insulin. it remains, however, unclear whether cinnamaldehyde plays a regulatory role(s) or not. objectives: the ob...

Glucose is an osmotic agent in the peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) to absorb water, sodium and other toxins. absorption from PDF blood impairs (PD) efficiency cause glycemic burden. This extra load leads poor control diabetic patients with PD program. Studies have shown sodium-glucose co-transporter (SGLT)-2 expression mesothelial cells. Blockade of SGLT reduced glucose increment increased rete...

Complementary DNA encoding a facilitative glucose transporter was isolated from a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2) cDNA library and subcloned into a metal-inducible mammalian expression vector, pLEN (California Biotechnology) containing human metallothionein gene II promoter sequences. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with this transporter expression vector, pLENGT, exhibited a 2-1...

objective(s): organic cation transporter 3 (oct3) as a high-capacity transporter contribute to the metabolism of metformin. the present study was conducted to determine the genotype frequencies of the variant oct3-1233g>a (rs2292334) in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (t2d) and its relationship with response to metformin. materials and methods: this study included 150 patients wit...

background and objective type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic, progressive illness that causes considerable morbidity and mortality. despite recent technical advances in therapy, more people are using alternative therapies. in this study evaluated the effect of sodium metavanadate on glucose levels and lipid profile in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.   methods this is a randomized, controll...
