The present work is to understand the alterations of total Muscarinic and
Muscarinic MI receptors in brain and pancreatic islets of Streptozotocin induced
diabetic rats. The work focuses on the evaluation of the antihyperglycemic activity
of aqueous extracts of Aegle marmelose and Costus pictus leaves in vivo and the
changes in the total Muscarinic and Muscarinic MI receptors during diabetes and
after the treatment with insulin. The insulin secretory activity of Aegle marmelose
and Costus pictus leaf extracts and the effect of cholinergic receptor agonist were
investigated in vitro using rat primary pancreatic islet culture. Muscarinic MI
receptor kinetics and gene expression during diabetes and regulation of insulin
secretion by Aegle marmelose and Costus pie/us leaf extracts will help us to
elucidate the role of Muscarinic and Muscarinic MI receptors in hyperglycemia
and the regulatory activity of these plant extracts on insulin secretion through
Muscarinic receptors. |
