To investigate the hypoglycemic effect and potential mechanism of pumpkin polysaccharides and puerarin on type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice, mice were fed a high-fat diet and injected intraperitoneally with streptozotacin to induce T2DM. After eight weeks of drug administration, blood samples were withdrawn from tail veins of mice that had been fasted overnight. The results showed that both pumpkin polysaccharides and puerarin, as well as a pumpkin polysaccharides and puerarin combination, could ameliorate T2DM. The pumpkin polysaccharides and puerarin combination had a synergetic hypoglycemic effect on T2DM mice that was greater than the pumpkin polysaccharides’ or the puerarin’s hypoglycemic effect. Both the pumpkin polysaccharides and the puerarin were found to ameliorate the blood glucose tolerance and insulin resistance of T2DM mice. They showed lipid-lowering activity by reducing the total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein levels, and improving the high-density lipoprotein level. They had beneficial effects on the oxidative stress by decreasing the reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde levels, and increasing the glutathione level and the superoxide dismutase activity. Furthermore, the nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1, and phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) levels were upregulated, and the Nrf2 and PI3K signalling pathways might be involved in the hypoglycemic mechanism. The combined administration of pumpkin polysaccharides and puerarin could synergistically ameliorate T2DM.

  Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a type of metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defect in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. This study intended to compare High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL) and Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL) profile between type II diabetic and non-diabetic subjects and also find the correlation between HDL and LDL cholesterol in type II diabetic.   Methods: The study was conducted on 100 total subjects out of which experimental group with 50 subjects of known Type II Diabetes mellitus and control group with 50 subjects.   Results: The result of the present study suggests that fasting blood sugar and LDL cholesterol levels were increased but HDL cholesterol level was reduced in type II diabetic subjects when compared to controls.   Conclusion: The estimation of HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in type II diabetes mellitus is very useful as it may serve as a useful parameter to monitor the prognosis of the patient.

To assess C reactive protein (CRP) in detecting type-II diabetes mellitus with nephropathy. Patients with a history of diabetes type 2 with nephropathy and patients with diabetes type 2 without nephropathy were included in the study. A total of 30 cases, both male and female, were recruited and compared with30 normal healthy adults. Each participant (age, gender, BMI, i.e. body mass index and WHR, i.e. waist-hip ratio) were recorded. CRP was measured by immunoturbidimetric method. Total cholesterol, triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol were measured by the CHOD-POD method, GPO-PAP method, and CHOD-POD/phosphotungstic method. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL)cholesterol and very low-density cholesterol were measured by Friedewald formula. Lipoprotein ratios ware also calculated. CRP was significantly (p=0.0001) higher among cases (12.60±3.30) compared to controls (5.47±4.29). CRP >9.5 correctly (efficacy) predicted DM2 with DN among 46.7% cases with sensitivity and specificity of 93.3 (95%CI=84.4-102.3) and 76.7 (95%CI=61.5-91.8) respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) was also high (AUC=0.85, 95%CI=0.75-0.95). There was a poor correlation of CRP with lipid profile among DM-2 with DN. Linear regression analysis showed that lipid biomarkers such as HDL, LDL, VLDL & total cholestarol-to-HDL ratio as well as BMI and WHR were positive predictors of CRP after adjusted for age and sex. In turn, HDL, LDL, VLDL and TC to HDL ratio level were a negative predictive factor of CRP levels. The increase of 1 unit on HDL was associated with a reduction of 1.25 in CRP levels. However, all the predictors had no statistical significance (p>0.05). In this study, the level of CRP was higher among cases compared to controls. This study also found that CRP >9.5 had good sensitivity and specificity in predicting DM2 with DN.
