Summary: | High-density lipoprotein levels increased in diabetic rats when Morus nigra hydro-alcoholic leaves extract was administered, while biochemical parameters like total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), creatinine, serum glutamate phosphotransferase (SGPT), urea, and serum glutamate oxaloacetic acid transferase (SGOT) decreased. Numerous plants have been used for their antidiabetic properties through a variety of mechanisms, including lowering hepatic gluconeogenesis, inhibiting glucose-6-phosphatase in addition to fructose-1, 6-biphosphatase in the liver, reducing intestinal glucose absorption, raising plasma insulin levels, and enhancing glucose tolerance5. Because of an increase in insulin release from pancreatic beta cells, hydro-alcoholic extract of Morus nigra leaves demonstrated considerable antidiabetic action in the current study. By graphing the relationship between blood glucose level and time (from 0 to 120 minutes), the decrease of blood glucose levels in rats was assessed. By comparing the percentage decrease in area under the curve of the plant sample and metformin of the controlled group, it was possible to determine the percentage decrease in blood glucose profile18. |
