LID - 10.1042/BSR20210977 [doi] LID - BSR20210977 AB - BACKGROUND: The study was aimed to investigate the potential therapeutic effect of Mori folium aqueous extracts (MFAE) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in vivo. METHODS AND RESULTS: A rat model of T2DM was established with the combination of high sugar and high-fat diet (HSFD) and streptozotocin (STZ). The T2DM rats were administrated with low (2 g.kg-1) and high (5 g.kg-1) doses of MFAE for 60 consecutive days. The biochemical indices of glucose metabolism disorders, insulin resistance and oxidative stress were observed. The results indicated that MFAE significantly promoted the synthesis of hepatic glycogen, reduced the levels of fasting blood glucose and fasting blood insulin, and improved the insulin sensitivity index (ISI). MFAE administration also remarkably increased the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and reduced the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA). CONCLUSION: MFAE showed a therapeutic effect on T2DM with the bioative effect of improve glucose metabolism disorders, decrease insulin resistance, and ameliorate the antioxidative ability.
