Popis: The present study aimed to evaluate the antidiabetic effects of glycinium [(pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylato) oxovanadate (V)] complex in type 2 diabetes rat model.Rats were allocated into 6 groups. Group I, nondiabetic rats; Group II, diabetic rats; Group III, diabetic rats receiving an intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of metformin (45 mg/kg); Groups IV, V and VI were diabetic rats receiving i.p. injection of 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg of the complex for 3 weeks, respectively. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin, liver enzymes, malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), lipid profile, and HbA1c were measured.AST, ALT and GGT activities and MDA levels were increased, while TAC was decreased in diabetic animals. Treatment of diabetic rats improved the HOMA-IR and returned HbA1c level to the normal value as well as elevated TAC and reduced MDA level.We found that the complex possesses antidiabetic properties in experimental diabetes.
