Effect of stevioside and sodium salt of monoketocholic acid on glycemia in normoglycemic and diabetic rats.

Abstract：

:This study investigated the effect of a commercial preparation of stevioside and a synthetic compound, sodium salt of monketocholic acid (MKC), administered per os (p.o.) and also adminstered via an osmotic pump, on glycemia in normoglycemic and diabetic Wistar rats. Diabetes was induced with alloxan, 100 mg/kg, i.p. Normoglycemic and diabetic rats were treated p.o. for five days either with physiological solution (1 ml/kg, controls), stevioside (20 mg/kg), MKC (4 mg/kg) and a combination of stevioside (20 mg/kg) and MKC (4 mg/kg). Apart from p.o. adminstration, stevioside and MKC were also administered via a subcutaneously (s.c.) implanted osmotic pump. During treatment and upon termination of the latter, glycemia was measured and the rats that were treated p.o. were subjected to the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTTT) at a dose of 1 g/kg. Following this animals were anesthetized with urethane (0.75 g/kg, i.p.) and killed by cardiopunction to determine C-peptide levels in the serum. In all three groups of normoglycemic rats highest decrease in glucose levels was observed on the fourth day of the experiment. The stevioside + MKC combination showed a stronger hypoglycemic effect compared to individual treatments with stevioside and MKC (3.73:4.80:4.73 mmol/L). In the group of diabetic rats that received both substances via the osmotic pump, the hypoglycemic action was also stronger compared to the individual treatments with stevioside and MKC (16.15:18.89:18.75 mmol/L). The treatment of healthy rats with both substances p.o. caused no statistically significant difference in glycemia, whereas in diabetic rats the combination of stevioside + MKC showed a statistically significant decrease in glycemia compared to control values. In both groups of rats, treatment with stevioside and MKC and their combination prevented an increase in glucose concentrations in the OGTT. Only the administration of stevioside by osmotic pump yielded a statistically significant increase in the concentrations of C-peptide in the serum of healthy rats. Compared to controls, the concentrations of C-peptide in diabetic rats were significantly higher after treatment with either stevioside or its combination with MKC, irrespective of the mode of administration.
