diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. the management of the blood glucose level is a critical strategy in the control of diabetes complications. inhibitors of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes have been useful as oral hypoglycemic drugs for the control of hyperglycemia especially in patients with type ii disables mellitus. the goal of the present study...

the current epidemic of diabetes indicates the need of proper and effective medications that are limited in their potency to have many side effects. thus, introduction of alternative and complementary medicine is now in picture. the main objective of this study was to analyze the rate of glucose transport across cell membrane in yeast cells system in the presence of the ethanolic extract of bru...

a new series of thiazolidinedione derivatives were synthesized. the structures of these compounds were established by means of ir, 1h-nmr and elemental analysis. all of the compounds were screened for antidiabetic activity on albino rats. most of the compounds showed significant antidiabetic activity when compared with the standard drug glibenclamide.

the complex metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, is a major human health concern in the world and is estimated to affect 300 million people by the year 2025. several drugs such as sulfonylureas and biguanides are presently available to reduce hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus. these drugs have side effects and thus searching for a new class of compounds is essential to overcome this problems...

in india, the occurrence of diabetes mellitus is on increase and needs to be addressed properly. herbal remedies are considered most suitable for the management of type 2 diabetes due to their traditional acceptability and availability, low costs, and fewer side effects. traditionally bauhinia tomentosa l. (family- fabaceae) is used in the treatment of diabetes in india. aqueous extract and alc...

the majority of the antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of fruits are anthocyanins, a group of polyphenolics that are responsible for the color of many fruits, vegetables and flowers. the harvesting time, storage conditions, maturity, extraction steps etc. are very important for the biological activities based on the alteration of chemical composition. the free radical scavenging and antidi...

objective(s): bidens species are used for their antidiabetic properties traditionally in many countries. aim of this study is to evaluate hypoglycaemic and antidiabetic activity of bidens tripartita extract and to identify its active compounds through bioactivity guided isolation technique. materials and methods: hypoglycaemic effects of b. tripartita extract and its sub-extracts were investiga...
