Phytochemical profiling and evaluation of the antidiabetic potential of Ichnocarpus frutescens (Krishna Sariva): kinetic study, molecular modelling, and free energy approach.

This research explored antidiabetic properties of a natural herb using enzyme assay and computational approaches. The herb demonstrated promising inhibitory activity against diabetes-related enzymes, with compounds showing better binding energy than a standard drug. The study suggests that the herb could be used as a medication for type 2 diabetes.

Hippophae rhamnoides L. leaf extracts alleviate diabetic nephropathy via attenuation of advanced glycation end product-induced oxidative stress in db/db mice.

The study found that sea buckthorn leaf extract (SBL) reduced kidney damage in diabetic mice by decreasing the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and oxidative stress. This suggests that SBL could be a potential treatment for diabetic renal complications.

Therapeutic Potential of Syzygium aromaticum in Gut Dysbiosis via TMAO Associated Diabetic Cardiomyopathy.

Gut bacteria imbalance causes intestinal and other diseases. Specific metabolites (like bile acids and trimethylamine) play a role. Elevated levels of oxidized trimethylamine link to cardiovascular disease. Herbal medicines and prebiotics could help restore balance and improve health.
