Abstract

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the body mechanisms. It has a severe impact on the essential organs and causes a decrease in pancreatic enzymes (lipase and amylase). The objective of this research work was to investigate the antidiabetic and antioxidant effects of ethanolic leaves extract of Mangifera indica (M. indica) in type II diabetic male albino (Wistar) rat model. Streptozotocin (45 mg/kg) was used to induce diabetes in male rats. Glibenclamide (05 mg/kg), and sitagliptin (10 mg/kg) were used as standard drugs. Extract of M. indica at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg respectively, were administered by oral route in diabetic rats daily up to 28 days. The extract of M. indica was assessed for its acute oral toxicity, biochemical parameters notably fasting blood glucose level and pancreatic enzymes; amylase and lipase, and its antioxidant effects in rats. Blood samples of rats were collected using cardiac puncture techniques for the biochemical analysis and fasting glucose levels were determined through strip method. Antioxidant potential of M. indica leaves extract in ethanol was assessed by using di-phenyl-picryl-hydrazyl radical scavenging assay. The result of an acute oral toxicity study revealed that the M. indica ethanolic leaves extract caused no behavioral changes and mortality in rats (LD50>6000 mg/kg). Extract of M. indica exhibited highly significant (p<0.001) antidiabetic effects by lowering the fasting blood glucose levels in diabetic rats and significantly (p<0.001) improved the levels of pancreatic enzymes (amylase and lipase) as compared with diabetes inducer group. M. indica leaves extract exhibited effective antioxidant activity.
