Diabetic patients typically have not only hyperglycemia but also dyslipidemia. Study of the pathogenic components of the diabetic milieu and mechanisms of accelerated atherosclerosis is hindered by inadequate animal models. A potentially suitable animal model for human diabetic dyslipidemia is the pig, because it carries a large fraction of total cholesterol in low-density lipoprotein (LDL), si...
متن کاملHypotensive, hypolipidemic, and vascular protective effects of Morus alba L. in rats fed an atherogenic diet.
Morus alba L. has been used in traditional Chinese medicine and almost all parts of this plant are useful in cardiovascular, liver and spleen disorders. The present study was designed to investigate the inhibitory effect of a water extract from Morus alba L. (WMA) on vascular dysfunction in rat models fed a high fat and high cholesterol diet.

متن کاملSupplementation of atherogenic diet with B vitamins does not prevent atherosclerosis or vascular dysfunction in monkeys.
BACKGROUND Hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with increased risk of atherosclerotic and thrombotic vascular disease. In many patients, hyperhomocysteinemia can be treated or prevented by dietary supplementation with B vitamins, but the clinical benefit of B vitamins for the prevention of vascular disease has not been proven. METHODS AND RESULTS Using an atherogenic diet that produces both hy...
متن کاملLipid-lowering activity of Cow urine ark in guinea pigs fed with a high cholesterol diet
Objectives: Cow urine ark (CUA), known as “Amrita” as mentioned in Ayurveda, contains anti-hyperglycemic and antioxidant effects. Therefore, we designed the present study to evaluate the lipid lowering activity of CUA and its possible implication in metabolic syndrome. Materials and Methods: Thirty guinea pigs of either sex were divided into five groups: Group 1 and 2 serving as a vehicle a...
