| Abstract | Hyperalgesia and allodynia are among the common manifestations of painful diabetic neuropathy. Naringenin (NA) has some biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antidiabetic effects. We investigated the effects of NA administration at different doses, 20, 50, and 100 mg/kg, on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperalgesia and allodynia in rats. The animals received saline or NA (20, 50, and 100 mg/kg, p.o.; once daily) for 8 weeks. Hyperalgesia was assessed by tail flick (TF) and formalin tests. Von Frey filaments were used for tactile allodynia evaluation. At the end, all rats were weighed and underwent plasma glucose and superoxide dismutase measurement. Diabetes caused significant hyperalgesia and allodynia during the above tests. NA 50 and 100 mg/kg reversed chemical and thermal hyperalgesia in diabetic rats. There were no significant differences in pain responses between NA (50 and 100 mg/kg)-treated diabetic rats and pregabalin-treated diabetic animals. Administration of NA 20 mg/kg did not alter pain-related behaviors in control and diabetic groups compared to the respective control ones. NA 50 and 100 mg/kg restored hyperglycemia as well as the decreased levels of (superoxide dismutase) SOD activity in diabetic rats. The body weight of treated diabetic rats increased significantly compared to untreated diabetics. Prolonged oral administration of NA (50 and 100 mg/kg) ameliorated some aspects of diabetic neuropathy by causing hypoglycemia and increasing the levels of antioxidant enzyme SOD. Therefore, NA makes a good candidate for treatment of diabetic neuropathy in clinical studies. |

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.
