The acute effects of dioxidovanadium on blood glucose concentration and oxidative stress in the hippocampus of non-diabetic male Sprague Dawley rats and the chronic effects of dioxidovanadium on selected markers associated with hippocampal dysfunction in male streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
(2022)Diabetes mellitus is a disease associated with derangements in glucose metabolism and chronic hyperglycaemia. Chronic hyperglycaemia induces oxidative stress and inflammation that affect glucose sensitive hippocampal neurons ... -
Effects of Momordica balsamina methanolic extract on cardiovascular and haematological function in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats: effects on selected markers.
(2018)Background The hyperglycaemia-induced haemanetic changes reduces the oxygen-carrying capacity of erythrocytes, thus aggravating cardiovascular disorders in diabetic patients. The conventional therapies have been shown to ... -
Effects of momordica balsamina on glucose handling in high fat high carbohydrate induced prediabetic rat model and glucose handling in C2C12 induced insulin resistant cell lines: effects on selected metabolic markers.
(2020)Increased consumption of fat and high carbohydrate coincided with increased prevalence in type 2 diabetes, a condition whose onset is always preceded by prediabetes. Prediabetes is best characterised by hyperglycaemia, ... -
Investigating changes to the insulin signalling pathway in a diet-induced pre-diabetic rat model: effects on selected markers.
(2019)No abstract available. -
Investigating the effects of diet-induced pre-diabetes on calcium homeostasis in male Sprague Dawley rats.
(2022)Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects over 400 million people worldwide with 90-95% being type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in South Africa. T2DM is positively correlated with the chronic consumption of a high caloric diet, often ...
