Multifaceted therapeutic approach via thiazolidinedione-infused magnolol in chitosan nanoparticles targeting hyperlipidemia and oxidative stress in gestational diabetes mellitus in experimental mice.

Recent advancements in nanotechnology have sparked interest in the synthesis of chitosan nanoparticles and their potential applications in medicine. This study investigates the synthesis of chitosan nanoparticles infused with thiazolidinedione and magnolol (TZ/ML-ChNPs) and their therapeutic effects on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in experimental mice. Using streptozotocin-induced diabetic pregnant mice as a model, the study examines the anti-diabetic effects of TZ/ML-ChNPs in vitro and explores possible mechanisms of action. Results show a notable decrease in α-amylase and α-glucosidase activities in TZ/ML-ChNPs-treated samples. Cytocompatibility and flow cytometry analysis in streptozotocin-induced diabetic pregnant mice conducted on RIN-5F cell line demonstrate the safety profile of TZ/ML-ChNPs. The primary objective of this research is to assess whether TZ/ML-ChNPs can mitigate hyperlipidemia and oxidative stress in diabetic pregnant mice. Chitosan nanoparticles with thiazolidinedione and magnolol have therapeutic effects that may be used in clinical and pharmaceutical applications.
