This study addressed the effects of co-treatment with Sap and metformin (Met) on the biochemical status of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2-DM) rats. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups (n = 8) as follows: group 1 (Gp1) was the negative control group. Gp2 was fed on a high fat diet (HFD) for 8 weeks (wks) and received a single intraperitoneal (i.p) injection of 30 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ) after 8 wks to induce T2-DM. Gp3 was treated as Gp2, after 8 wks rats received 250 mg/kg Met by oral gavage daily for 4 weeks. Gp4 was treated as Gp2, and after 8 wks rats received 300 mg/kg Sap by oral gavage daily for 4 weeks. Gp5 was treated as Gp2, after the 8 wks rats received it, and then co-treated with Met as in Gp3 and Sap as in Gp4. The percentage of body weight (% b.wt) changes, hematological, and biochemical parameters were determined. The results showed that co-treatment with Met and Sap led to significant improvement in the % b.wt of T2-DM rats. Co-treatment of T2-DM rats with Met and Sap led to synergistic effects in the reduction of serum glucose levels and an increase in the C-peptide levels. Co-treatment of T2-DM rats with Met and Sap led to significant improvements in the hepato-renal functions and antioxidant status. Sap could play an important role in regulating T2-DM and can be developed as a promising natural material for diabetes management.","PeriodicalId":92047,"journal":{"name":"International biological and biomedical journal","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136198367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to address the effective of Phoenix dactylifera seed extract (PDSE) in treating renal and lipid profile alterations brought on by the exposure to AgNPs. The following four groups (n=10) of male CD1 mice were created: 200 µl of sterile saline has been injected intraperitoneal (i.p) into group 1 (Gp1). Gp2 had received PDSE (100 mg/kg) i.p. Gp3 had received 0.25 mg/Kg of AgNPs, i.p. every day for a month. Gp4 had received both AgNPs and PDSE treatment, as in Gp2 and Gp3. The kidney's histological changes and lipid profile were investigated. AgNPs caused a noticeable histological change in the kidney tissues as well as significant changes in the lipid profile. PDSE treatment after AgNPs injection reduced the toxicities on the kidneys` tissues and lipid profile. Together, PDSE treatment could be employed to decline the negative impacts that induced by AgNPs exposure on kidneys` tissues and lipid profile.","PeriodicalId":92047,"journal":{"name":"International biological and biomedical journal","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136127617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed no significant changes in the blood glucose (BG), insulin, and splenic weight in GpII and GpIII. GpIV showed a significant increase in BG, significant decrease in insulin levels, and splenic weight values. GpV recorded a moderate decrease in BG, and a moderate increase in insulin levels and splenic weight atrophy. While GpVI or GpVII showed a marked decrease in BG and an increase in insulin levels and splenic weight increment. Histologically, the splenic sections of control or non-diabetic mice received either Vit. D or C.O showed normal structure of the splenocytes. GpIV showed great numbers of giant cells, disarrangement, interference of red and white pulps, and dilated congested blood vessels. Mild improvement was seen in GpV, while in GpVI or GpVII showed a marked improvement in the splenic tissues. In conclusion, diabetic mice received Vit. D/C.

The results showed increase in the activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) by increased stocking density compared with their respective control. Activities of AST and ALT at high stocking density Ι, П with addition of probiotic decreased compared to their respective high stocking densities in liver and white muscles.
