“…In general, serum glucose level of broilers fed on A. paniculata was lowered. The A. paniculata effect in the present study was similar with Reyes et al (2006) and Zhang and Tan (2000) who reported that A. paniculata led to a significant reduction of blood glucose levels indicating a hypoglycaemic effect. In contrast, Mathivanan and Kalaiarasi (2007) did not observe a significant difference in glucose level between A. paniculata and control groups.…”

“…Antihyperglycemic effect may also be caused by the effect of plant extract on β-cells to release insulin or activate the insulin receptors to absorb the blood sugar and stimulate the peripheral glucose consumption [32][33] . In light of the results, our study indicates that Acacia Arabica and Withania coagulans extracts have good antidiabetic activity.…”

“…It has previously been widely used to induce diabetes mellitus in experimental animal models, allowing investigation of hypoglycemic agents in the treatment of diabetes. [22,23] Alloxan injection consistently produced symptoms characteristic of diabetes mellitus including hyperglycemia, decreased insulin levels, polyurea and weight loss [33] . In our approach, we demonstrated the efficacy of Alloxan through the glibenclamide studies in diabetic rats as well as in normal hyperglycemic rats [8] .…”

“…The treated groups were given 0.5g/kg, 1g/kg and 2g/kg body weight (P.O) of extract daily for 28 days, the control group was given 10ml/kg of distilled water (P.O) daily for 28 days. The doses of the extract chosen were based on the accepted method 18 . On the 28 th day, the animals were anaesthetized with chloroform in a chamber and blood collected from the abdominal aorta for biochemical and haematological assays.…”
