Diabetes Studies

Virtual screening, molecular docking, molecular dynamics, and MM-GBSA approaches identify prospective fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inhibitors from pineapple for diabetes management.

Scientists discovered a potential antidiabetic compound in pineapple waste that inhibits the enzyme FBPase. More research is needed for efficacy and safety evaluation.

Effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Trigonella foenum-graecum leaves on wound healing in type 1 diabetic rats.

This study evaluated the effect of 500mg/kg hydroalcoholic extract of leaves on wound healing in diabetic rats. Results showed improved wound healing, better tensiometric indices, accelerated wound contraction, faster re-epithelialisation, improved neovascularisation, better modulation of fibroblasts and macrophages, and moderate collagen formation.

Garden Cress Seed Oil Abrogates Testicular Oxidative Injury and NF-kB-Mediated Inflammation in Diabetic Mice.

This study found that a biologically active seed oil (LSO) improved testicular dysfunction in diabetic mice by increasing testosterone levels and reducing oxidative damage and inflammation. LSO may be a potential therapeutic option for male reproductive dysfunction in diabetes.
