Abstract
    [Objective] To observe the effect of Naokang Ⅱ on the concentration of methylglyoxal(MG) in serum of diabetic rats in order to provide the theoretical basis for its clinic application in treating cognitive dysfunction in diabetic patients.[Methods] The diabetes mellitus(DM) was produced in rats by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and feeding with high fat food and sucrose diet.The Naokang II-treated rats were given different doses of Naokang Ⅱ per oral,whereas the control and DM model groups were given double distilled water for 4 consecutive weeks.Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry(GC-MS) was applied to determine the concentration of methylglyoxal(MG) in serum of rats.[Results] The concentration levels of MG in diabetic rats(216.67±15.56) μg/L was significantly high-er than that in the control group(85.29±24.97) μg/L.Different doses of Naokang Ⅱ could restore the level of MG to(178.8±19.34) μg/L,(137.9±16.95)μg/L and(128.47±16.77) μg/L,respectively.[Conclusion] Naokang Ⅱ can down-regulate the level of MG in serum of diabetic rats,and this effect may be one of the mechanisms in treating diabetic cognitive dysfunction.
