Abstract:
Objective To observe the hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of Zhuye Shigao Decoction (ZSD) on experimental type 2 diabetes mellitus rats. Methods Type 2 diabetes mellitus rat model was induced by intragastric administration of high fat diet(10 mL/kg) and intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (30 mg·kg-1). Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into normal group, model group, low-, moderate-and high-dose ZSD groups (in the dosage of 3.6, 7.2, 14.4 g·kg-1·d-1 respectively), and Metformin group (0.15 g·kg-1·d-1) , 10 rats in each group. With fasting blood glucose, urine glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), serum insulin, serum superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) as the main indexes, we evaluated the influence of ZSD on the blood glucose and lipid levels as well as oxidative stress in type 2 diabetes mellitus rats. Results Compared with the model group, the levels of blood glucose, urine glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin, and the contents of TC, TG, MDA were decreased (P <0.05), whereas SOD activity and serum insulin level were obviously increased (P < 0.05) in ZSD groups. ZSD showed dose-related effectiveness in the treatment of diabetic rats. Conclusion ZSD has certain hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus.
