| Abstract | Numerus studies highlighted benefits of natural flavonoids in the management of diabetes. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of a high flavonoids containing extract of Rheum turkestanicum on diabetic changes in different tissues. Male Wistar rats were divided into normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic groups received saline or hydroalcoholic extract of R. turkestanicum root (100, 200 and 300mg/kg) through orogastric gavage for 4 weeks. Serum glucose, HbA1c, lipids, creatinine, uric acid, liver enzymes (alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase), and cardiac enzymes (lactate dehydrogenase and creatine phosphokinase) in diabetic control group were significantly higher compared to normal control group (p<0.001). The extract significantly reduced these factors, increased body weight, and improved both glucosurea and proteinuria. Lipid peroxidation was high in the liver of diabetic rats compared to normal rats (p<0.001) and reverted toward control values by R. turkestanicum. Also, the extract significantly protected the liver, kidney, and heart of diabetic rats against histopathological changes. In conclusion, R. turkestanicum inhibited the development of nephropathy, liver injury, and myocardial damage in diabetes by lowering the serum levels of glucose and lipids, and by inhibiting oxidative stress mediated lipid peroxidation. |

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.
