Abstract

Objectives : This study was aimed to evaluate the hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective effects of “Saengjinyanghyul-tang (Shēngjīnyǎngxuè-tāng: SJYHT)” in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic SD rat model. Methods : SJYHT extracts were once a day dosed for 28 days at a dosage 1000, 500, and 250㎎/㎏/5㎖ from 25 days after STZ-dosing, and the changes on blood glucose levels, liver and kidney weight, serum AST, ALT, BUN and creatinine levels were observed with histological changes on the liver and kidney. Results : Increased blood glucose levels, and diabetic hepatopathy & nephropathy including increased serum AST, ALT, BUN and creatinine levels, histological changes after STZ-dosing were dose-dependently reduced by SJYHT extract-dosing. Conclusions : “SJYHT” water extracts have favorable hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective effects on the STZ-induced diabetic SD rats. Therefore, it is expected that “SJYHT” has potential for use in the management of diabetes and diabetic complications.
