Abstract:

The study has been designed to investigate the anti-diabetic effects of cesium aqua (N,N'-ethylene (salicylideneiminato)-5-sulfonato) oxovanadium (IV) dihydrate (VO(salen-SO(3))), an organic vanadium compound, in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. VO(salen-SO(3)) was orally administrated to diabetic rats at the dose of 0.3 mg/ml through drinking water for 24 days. Blood glucose level was significantly declined, and oral glucose tolerance was improved after VO(salen-SO(3)) treatment. Moreover, liver and muscle glycogen concentrations were markedly increased in VO(salen-SO(3))-treated diabetic rats. On the other hand, aspartate amino transferase and blood urea nitrogen in serum were significantly decreased after treatment with VO(salen-SO(3)). Taken together, these results suggested that VO(salen-SO(3)) may be of potential value in the therapy of diabetic symptom and hyperglycemia-induced hepatic and renal dysfunction.
