Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by inflammation, abnormal glycolipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and mitochondrial dysfunction leading to hyperglycemia. The aim of the present investigation was to determine the efficacy of lycopsamine in a rat model of diabetes mellitus to understand its mechanism. Lycopsamine treatment markedly lowered the level of total cholesterol, triglyceride, nonesterified fatty acids, and low-density lipoprotein in diabetic rats. There was also a reduction in interleukin-6, interleukin-10, C-reactive protein, and tumor necrosis factor-α levels. Lycopsamine treatment normalized the metabolism of lipid and glucose, insulin resistance, and body weight of diabetic rats. Findings of immunohistochemical analyses exhibited rise in precipitation of immunocytes in renal cells. Results potentially demonstrated that lycopsamine treatment remarkably reduced the nuclear factor-kappa B level and enhanced the 5′ adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase expression. Altogether, administration of lycopsamine suppressed the expression of inflammatory cytokines and attenuated the metabolic symptoms in diabetes mellitus experimental rats.

Alkaloids - derived from natural plants - were widely used for therapy in diabetes or diabetes-related complications. Sanguinarine, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid derived from Sanguinaria canadensis, has been identified as a potential drug for type 2 diabetes. However, the role of sanguinarine on diabetes-related complication, diabetic nephropathy, has not been reported yet. In a rat model of diabetic nephropathy we have demonstrated increased levels of 24 h urinary proteins, serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen, as well as series of degenerative changes in the kidney tissues. Oral administration with sanguinarine to diabetic rats diminished kidney injury markers and improved the tissue morphology. Furthermore, sanguinarine attenuated increase in the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 through downregulation of phosphonuclear factor-kappa B and phosphorylated inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B. Lastly, sanguinarine reversed the effects of streptozotocin on levels of reactive oxygen species, malonaldehyde, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase through upregulation of nuclear factor erythropoietin-2-related factor 2, heme oxygenase 1 and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 in kidney of rats. In conclusion, sanguinarine ameliorates diabetic nephropathy in rats through inactivation of nuclear factor-kappa B and activation of nuclear-factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 pathways.

Paecilomyces Hepiali

Paecilomyces hepialiis a fungus widely used in Asian countries for various potential pharmacological activities. The present study aims to evaluate the antidiabetic and antinephritic effects of thePaecilomyces hepialimycelium water extract (PHC) in diabetic rat, which is established by eight-week high-fat diet administration followed by one-week tail intravenous injection of 25 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ). After four-week 0.12 g/kg metformin and PHC at doses of 0.08, 0.4, and 2.0 g/kg treatment, an increment of body weight, a decrement of plasma glucose, low levels of total cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol in diabetic rats were observed. PHC promotes glucose metabolism by enhancing insulin, pyruvate kinase activity, and increasing the synthesis of glycogen. PHC normalized the disturbed levels of superoxide dismutase, methane dicarboxylic aldehyde, and glutathione peroxidase in kidney. The inhibitory effects on the levels of interleukin-2, interleukin-6, interleukin-10, and tumor necrosis factor-αin serum and kidney revealed the protection of PHC against diabetic nephropathy. Compared with nontreated diabetic rats, four-week PHC treatment resulted in a decrement on nuclear factor kappa B expression in kidney. These results show thatPaecilomyces hepialipossesses antidiabetic and antinephritic effects which are related to the modulation of nuclear factor kappa B activity.
