Abstract |
We investigated the effect of KIOM-79, 80 % ethanolic extract of herbal prescription isolated from Magnolia officinalis, Pueraria lobate, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, and Euphorbia pekinensis, on streptozotocin-induced diabetes in Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats were treated orally with KIOM-79 (500 mg/kg) once a day 1) 3 days prior to streptozotocin (60 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) injection or 2) for 9 weeks to examine acute and chronic effects on hyperglycemia and biochemical variables. As a result, we found that KIOM-79 had little effects on hyperglycemic changes in acute model. Sexual comparison, however, showed reduced hyperglycemia in female rats, especially 24 hours after streptozotocin injection with or without KIOM-79 pretreatment. In chronic model, we found that streptozotocin-induced hyperglycemia was well established, but KIOM-79 treatment showed no statistically significant effects on all variables. Thus, based on our findings KIOM-79 might have little effects on streptozotocin-induced diabetes (i.e. insulin-dependent diabetes) although it had hypoglycemic and anti-diabetic effects on non-insulin-dependent diabetes models. |
