Comparative Effect of Aspirin, Meloxicam and Terminalia catappa Leaf Extract on Serum Levels of Some Inflammatory Markers in Alloxan Induced Diabetic Rats

Abstract: Background: The association between diabetes mellitus and inflammation is established but the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is not without some health risk. Aim: The study was aimed at comparing the levels of some inflammatory biomarkers in diabetic rats treated with aqueous leaf extract of Terminalia catappa, non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and exogenous insulin. Materials and Methods: Thirty six (36) Wistar rats were assigned to 6 groups of 6 animals each. Group 1 an… Show more

“…Medicinal plants and natural antioxidants with hypoglycaemic activity are hypothesised as a possible solution due to a plethora of phytochemicals and nonnutritional compounds [31]. Despite the reports on the antioxidant property of T. catappa in diabetic and nondiabetic animal models [32][33][34][35], information on the molecular mode of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of T. catappa in T2DM animal model is lacking. is study evaluates the role of Terminalia catappa aqueous leaf extract in ameliorating hyperglycaemia-induced oxidative stress and inflammation in high-fat diet (HFD)/low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.…”

“…As research into the natural agent progresses, medicinal plants have shown the ability to synthesize numerous chemical compounds that are essential in healthcare as therapeutic remedies hence serving as alternative source to conventional drugs. Recent studies have shown that the leaf extract of Terminalia catappa possesses anti-inflammatory effects [23,24] in addition to other usefulness earlier reported. Terminalia catappa is a tropical tress of the combretaceae family whose leaves and barks are often used because of its diaphoretic, anti-ingestion, hepatoprotective effect [25,26], nephroprotective effect [27] and anti-tumor effect [28].…”

“…Pada penelitian yang dilakukan terhadap subyek tikus Wistar yang diinduksi diabetes yaitu dengan mengukur penanda inflamasi pada DM tipe-2 yang diberikan perlakuan menggunakan ekstrak ketapang dengan berbagai variasi dosis (mg/kg BB) 130, 400, dan 800 yaitu dengan mengukur kadar sitokin IL-6 didapatkan penurunan yang signifikan (p<0,05) (Ben et al 2019b;. Ben et al (2019a) menyatakan bahwa tingkat IL-6 berkurang secara signifikan dalam kelompok tikus DM tipe-2 yang diobati dengan ekstrak ketapang dosis 130 mg/kg BB selama 14 hari.…”
