Abstract
|
[Objective] To study the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Puerariae Radix Polysaccharides (PRP) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats. [Methods] Diabetic rats induced by high-fat diet with STZ were administered PRP and effects of PRP on body weight, FBG, OGTT, FINS, TG and TC were investigated. Then, the antioxidant effects of PRP were evaluated by detection the levels of SOD, CAT and MDA. [Results] PRP could increase the body weight, and reduce the content of FBG, and enhance FINS level and improve the oral glucose tolerance ability. Meanwhile, TG and TC of diabetic rats were also decreased after PRP treatment. Furthermore, PRP showed an obvious antioxidant effect through increasing SOD, CAT activities and decreasing MDA content in livers. [Conclusion] These results indicated obvious hpyerglycemic and hypolipidemic effects of PRP on diabetic rats and antioxidant effects might be a possible reason for these effects. |
