Long-term treatment with resveratrol attenuates oxidative stress pro-inflammatory mediators and apoptosis in streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced diabetic rats

Abstract: Abstract. This study was designed to investigate the possible effectiveness of chronic resveratrol administration on redox state, inflammatory mediators and apoptosis rate in diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n = 6): normal control, diabetic control, normal rats treated with resveratrol, and diabetic rats treated with resveratrol. Diabetes was induced by injection of streptozotocin (50 mg/kg; i.p.), 15 min after the prescription of nicotinamide (110 mg/kg; i.p.) in 12 h-fasted rats… Show more

“…In the present study, although resveratrol could not increase the blood insulin concentration in diabetic rats, it prevented from pancreatic insulin depletion and enhanced the peripheral glucose utilization. Improvement in glucose metabolism in turn prevents from degradation of proteins and lipids from their reservoirs and attenuates the body weight loss during diabetes [11,12,17]. Improvement in insulin sensitivity after 4-week resveratrol administration has been also recently reported in type 2 diabetic patients, as well as in adults with impaired glucose tolerance [18,19].…”

“…Blood glucose and body weight Anti-hyperglycemic effect of resveratrol has been documented by several studies [5,12,13]. It is believed that resveratrol ameliorates diabetes-mediated hyperglycemia through insulin--dependent and insulin-independent pathways [5].…”
