abstract

objective: arctium lappa (burdock), (a. lappa) root has hypoglycemic and antioxidative effects, and has been used for treatment of diabetes in tradition medicine. this study was conducted to evaluate the antidiabetic and hypolipidemic properties of a. lappa root extract on nicotinamide-streptozotocin (na-stz)-induced type2 diabetes in mice.materials and methods: in this investigation, 70 adult male nmri mice (30-35g) randomly divided into 7 groups (n=10) as follow: 1-control, 2-type 2 diabetic mice, 3-diabetic mice that received glibenclamide (0.25 mg/kg) as an anti-diabetic drug, 4, 5, 6 and 7- diabetic and normal animals that were pre-treated with 200 and 300 mg/kg a. lappa root extract, respectively, for 28 days. diabetes has been induced by intraperitoneal injection of na and stz. finally, the blood sample was taken and insulin, glucose, sgot, sgpt, alkaline phosphatase, leptin and lipid levels was evaluated.results: induction of diabetes decreased the level of insulin, leptin and high density lipoprotein (hdl) and increased the level of other lipids, glucose, and hepatic enzymes significantly (p<0.05). administration of both doses of the extract significantly decreased the level of triglyceride, very low density lipoprotein, glucose and alkaline phosphatase in diabetic mice (p<0.05). insulin levels increased in animals treated with 200 mg/kg (p<0.05) and hdl and leptin levels increased in animals treated with 300 mg/kg of the extract (p<0.01).conclusion: the results showed that a. lappa root extract, at specific doses, has an anti-diabetic effect through its hypolipidemic and insulinotropic properties. hence, this plant extract may be beneficial in the treatment of diabetes.
