چکیده
In the commentary listed above, which appeared in the April 2014 issue of Diabetes, one of the authors did not disclose a financial conflict of interest. Dr. Josephine M. Egan is listed as an inventor on patents (US 7576050 and US 7056734) covering molecules described in the article. The reviewers and the editors were unaware of this interest at the time the manuscript was reviewed. The online version reflects this change.

It is also usual for a new drug class to be first marketed as a “game changer,” followed by its vilification for potential safety issues (usually accompan...
متن کاملSilymarin: a novel natural agent to restore defective pancreatic beta cells in Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats
This study aimed to investigate the potency of silymarin (SMN) and melatonin (MEL) on restoring the pancreatic cells in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into five groups, including: control (C), untreated diabetic (D), SMN-treated diabetic (50 mg/kg, orally), MEL-treated diabetic (10 mg/kg, i.p.), and SMN plus MEL-treated diabetic rats. Diabetes was in...

متن کاملEffect of Crocin and Losartan on Insulin Resistance and Protecting Pancreatic Tissue in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
Background and purpose: Crocin as a carotenoid exert anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-diabetic effects. There is an increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus and its complications and patients are more interested in natural product treatments. This study aimed at investigating the efficacy of crocin and losartan alone and combination of the two drugs on insulin resistance and protecti...
متن کاملHISTOLOGICAL AND IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY OF PANCREATIC ISLET BETA CELLS OF DIABETIC RATS TREATED WITH ORAL VANADYL SULPHATE
Vanadium salts have been suggested as a possible therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetes. The aim of the present study was to clarify histological and immunohistochemical changes that occur in the pancreatic beta (β) cells of vanadyl sulphate (VS)-treated streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. Male Wi star rats were made diabetic by injecting a single intravenous dose of STZ (...
