Taenia crassiceps Infection Attenuates Multiple Low-Dose Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes
Taenia crassiceps, like other helminths, can exert regulatory effects on the immune system of its host. This study investigates the effect of chronic T. crassiceps infection on the outcome of Multiple Low Dose Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes (MLDS). Healthy or previously T. crassiceps-infected mice received MLDS and type 1 diabetes (T1D) symptoms were evaluated for 6 weeks following the inducti...
متن کاملThalidomide attenuates multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice by inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines.
Thalidomide is an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agent and is used in autoimmune disorders. It has been shown that thalidomide inhibits proinflammatory cytokines production. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of thalidomide on the prevention of autoimmune diabetes in mice. Diabetes was induced by multiple low-dose of streptozotocin (MLDS) injection. Mice were treate...
متن کاملAntidiabetic effect of Teucrium polium aqueous extract in multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced model of type 1 diabetes in rat
Background and Objective: Teucrium polium (TP) has shown hypoglycemic effect in type 1 diabetes induced by single high dose of the cytotoxic agent streptozotocin (STZ) in rats. This study was conducted to evaluate whether its aqueous extract could have such an effect in multiple low-dose STZ-induced model of type 1 diabetes in rats. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into cont...
متن کاملEffector Mechanisms in Low-Dose Streptozotocin-induced Diabetes
The cellular and molecular requirements for beta-cell damages in an immune-mediated toxin-induced insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus have been studied in the model of multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats and mice. It was found that strain-related susceptibility to diabetes induction correlated with a higher level of IL-2, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha production, whereas such d...
متن کاملTIMP-1 transgenic mice recover from diabetes induced by multiple low-dose streptozotocin.
Type 1 diabetes results from autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing beta-cells of pancreatic islets, of which the capacity for self-replication in the adult is too limited to restore following extensive tissue injury. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 inhibits matrix metalloproteinase activity and regulates proliferation and apoptosis of a variety of cells types, depending...
