Amelioration of experimental diabetic neuropathy and gastropathy in rats following oral administration of plant (Eugenia jambolana, Mucuna pruriens and Tinospora cordifolia) extracts. Indian Journal of Experimental Biology. 2002 Mar; 40(3): 273-6http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/55835Extract of M. charantia (200 mg/kg), E. jambolana (200 mg/kg), M. pruriens (200 mg/kg) and T. cordifolia (400 mg/kg) was administered for 50 days in STZ induced diabetic mice, the plasma glucose concentration was reduced by 24.4, 20.84, 7.45 and 9.07% respectively. Tail flick latency (TFL) and gastric transit percentage were significantly higher in diabetic controls versus normal controls. M. charantia and E. jambolana modified it favorably while M. pruriens and T. cordifolia did not exert any favorable change.engAdministration, OralAnimalsDiabetes Mellitus, Experimental --complicationsDiabetic Neuropathies --drug therapyEugeniaFemaleGastrointestinal Diseases --drug therapyMaleMedicine, AyurvedicMiceMomordica charantiaMucunaPhytotherapyPlant Extracts --pharmacologyRatsTinosporaJournal Article
