The current study aimed to evaluate the antidiabetic potential of Illicium verum fruits.
Illicium verum fruits are frequently used by the Moroccan population in the treatment of diabetes.
The antihyperglycemic effect of the aqueous extract of Illicium verum fruits (AEIVF) in rats was assessed. The effects of AEIVF (20 mg/kg) on glycemia and lipid profile as well as its phytochemical and antioxidant properties were evaluated.
In normal and diabetic rats, AEIVF reduced blood glucose levels 6 hours after administration. Furthermore, after 7 days of treatment, glycemia was lowered in diabetic rats, and this extract exhibited an antioxidant activity.
The study shows that Illicium verum possesses a potent antidiabetic activity. In addition, the toxicity of AEIVF was evaluated and the LD value was found to be greater than the 2 g/kg dose.
本研究旨在评估八角茴香果实的抗糖尿病潜力。
摩洛哥人群经常使用八角茴香果实治疗糖尿病。
评估八角茴香果实水提取物(AEIVF)对大鼠的降血糖作用。评价了AEIVF(20mg/kg)对血糖和血脂谱的影响及其植物化学和抗氧化特性。
在正常和糖尿病大鼠中,AEIVF给药6小时后可降低血糖水平。此外,治疗7天后,糖尿病大鼠的血糖降低,且该提取物表现出抗氧化活性。
该研究表明八角茴香具有强大的抗糖尿病活性。此外,还评估了AEIVF的毒性,发现其半数致死量值大于2g/kg剂量。
