Aspirin-Mediated Reduction of Glucose Level and Inflammation in .

Diabetes mellitus (DM), particularly type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), is a global health challenge marked by chronic hyperglycemia and inflammation, which contributes to both metabolic dysregulation and associated complications. Inflammation exacerbates T2DM by activating immune signaling pathways and promoting insulin resistance. This study aims to investigate the interplay between hyperglycemia and inflammation and to explore the therapeutic potential of aspirin in mitigating these processes using as a model organism. We utilized the strain, which exhibits dysregulated immune responses due to the loss of the gene, leading to a phenotype resembling human autoinflammatory conditions. Larvae of the were fed a high-sucrose diet to induce increased glucose levels, mimicking the metabolic disturbances of T2DM. Aspirin, at different concentrations, was administered to assess its effects on high glucose level-induced inflammation. The results demonstrated that aspirin significantly improved hemolymph glucose levels, larval size, weight, and development. Additionally, aspirin enhanced larval mobility and reduced glucose level-associated immune dysfunction, as evidenced by changes in the expression of key immune and insulin-related genes. These findings highlight the utility of as an effective and cost-efficient model to investigate the molecular mechanisms of T2DM and inflammation. The study also provides preliminary evidence for the potential of aspirin as an anti-inflammatory agent to modulate glucose levels and inflammation in T2DM, offering a promising avenue for therapeutic development.
