Poria cocos as a Functional Food for Diabetes and Diabetes‐Related Foot Ulcers

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Poria cocos is known as an edible mushroom for food and medicine. Poria cocos and its terpenes and terpenoids serve as novel remedies to treat diabetes and its ulcers. Its mode of actions includes reduction of insulin resistance, starch digestion and inflammation as well as promotion of blood vessel formation. ABSTRACT Poria cocos is a medicinal fungus

Comparison of the effects of metformin, citral, Cymbopogon citratus extract and silver nanoparticles of Cymbopogon citratus extract on oxidative stress indices and Nrf2 levels in experimental type 2 diabetes in rats

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The experimental type 2 diabetes model in rats induced by streptozotocin and nicotinamide showed that silver nanoparticles synthesized from lemongrass extract modulate blood glucose, water and food intake, and enhance antioxidant enzyme synthesis and weight gains.

Establishment of a novel cynomolgus monkey model of hyperuricemia

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established a novel hyperuricemia model in cynomolgus monkeys (A) via oral administration of potassium oxonate, hydrochlorothiazide, and adenine mixed in fruits and vegetables. This model (B) targets uric acid synthesis and enzymatic degradation, and (C) regulates renal and intestinal excretion, thereby stably elevating serum uric acid and serving ...

Contrast-induced nephropathy after computed tomography

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2015
Introduction: Contrast induced nephropathy is the third most prevalent preventable cause of acute kidney injury in hospitalized patients. It defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine ≥ 0.5 mg/dL and relative ≥ 25% increase.
