    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) on anti-hyperglycemic, anti-obese and prevention from kidney pathological changes in a type 2 diabetic KK-Ay gene mice model. METHODS: All animals were divided into 4 groups: Normal control group (C57BL/6J mice) were treated by NS 10 mL/kg, KK-Ay mice were subdivided into 3 groups as DM administrated NS 10 mL/kg, PNS 50 mg/kg, PNS 200 mg/kg respectively. All the animals received daily intraperitoneal injections for 30 days consecutively. All of these following items were determined as the effect of PNS: fasting plasma glucose levels (FPG), intraperitoneal glucose tolerance, body weight, food intake, insulin resistance index (IRI), serum insulin, triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (CH) levels and contribution of glomerulus injury. RESULTS: On the 12th, 22nd and 30th day, PNS-treated group had significantly lower FPG and low body weight incremental percentage. After a 12-day treatment, glucose tolerance was significantly improved. On the 30th day the serum IRI and TG levels of PNS-treated group decreased significantly, and the development of the mice glomerular lesions was prevented significantly. All of these showed a dose-effect relationship. CONCLUSION: PNS has the effects of anti-diabetes, anti-obese and prevention from kidney pathological changes in type 2 diabetic KK-Ay mice.
