Abstract
Objective: The study was conducted to evaluate the anti hyperglycemic effect of P. tirupatiensis on altered blood glucose levels, water, food intake, cytosolic and mitochondrial enzymes in control and STZ- treated diabetic rats. Methods: The anti hyperglycemic effect of P. tirupatiensiswas determined by various methods like blood glucose levels, water, food intake, cytosolic and mitochondrial enzymes. Results: On oral administration of P. tirupatiensis at a dose of 0.750 g/kg body weight per day to diabetic rats for 30 days; resulted in a significant (p<0.01) reduction in the levels of blood glucose, water and food intake whereas a significantly (p<0.01) increase in the activities of hepatic cytosolic and mitochondrial marker enzymes such as glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) along with significant (p<0.01) reduction in the activity of hepatic cytosolic enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in diabetic treated rats. Furthermore, protection against body weight loss of diabetic animals also observed. Conclusion: In this study, we concluded that P. tirupatiensisextract could lower the blood glucose levels as well as improve activities of cytosolic and mitochondrial enzymes in streptozotocin (STZ) - injected pathogenic diabetic rats.
