Abstract:
Cryophylisat powder of ethanolic fluid extract of Smilax glabra (SG) was administered orally on mouse with a single dose of 1g/kg of body mass. Hypoglycemic effect exerted with 10.58% approximatively. Continous use of 7 days of this dose increased the hypoglycemic action. Oral SG effects manifested lately with less level than injectable SG. Apart from the increase of synthetization capacity of glycogene, SG promote the sensitivity of the tissues to insuline.
