Abstract

The study evaluated the hypoglycemic effect of Callery speciosa extract (SNND) on Swiss mice with type 2 diabetes mellitus induced by a high-fat diet combined with streptozocin (STZ). Swiss mice were induced with type 2 diabetes mellitus by a high-fat diet continuously for 8 weeks combined with STZ intraperitoneal injection at 100 mg/kg; subsequently mice were given SNND extract at 2 doses of 3.6 g/kg/day and 14.4 g/kg/day within 2 weeks. The results showed that SNND extract at both tested doses lowered blood glucose levels and tended to reduce blood lipid levels including TC, TG, and LDL-C, accompanied by improved liver and pancreatic damage on microscopic examination. The dose of 14.4 g/kg of SNND extract exhibited a more significant hypoglycemic impact than the dose of 3.6 g/kg. The current findings demonstrated the blood glucose-lowering effect of SNND extract in a type 2 diabetic mice model in a dose-dependent manner.
