| Abstract | Cinnamaldehyde (CNA) is a primary constituent found in cinnamon (Cortex cinnamomi). Although antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory activities of cinnamon extract have been investigated in recent years, whether CNA is responsible for these activities is yet to be explored. In the present study, we investigated the protective effect of CNA on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced β-cell dysfunction in RINm5F rat insulinoma cells. CNA markedly inhibited nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) productions in concentration-dependent manners. Parallel with these observations, the protein and mRNA levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 enzymes were inhibited by CNA in concentration-dependent manners. CNA also inhibited STZ-induced nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation via the prevention of inhibitory κBα (IκBα) phosphorylation and degradation. Moreover, CNA significantly suppressed STZ-induced phosphorylations of extracellular signalregulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in concentration-dependent manners. These results suggest that CNA is an active constituent of the cinnamon, and CNA protects against STZ-induced pancreatic β-cell damage by down-regulations of iNOS and COX-2 gene expression through blocking of NF-κB and MAPKs activities. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
