Ellagic Acid Ameliorates Insulin Sensitivity and Hepatic Oxidative Stress in Diabetic Female Rats: A Potential Anti‐Oxidant Agent for Type II Diabetic Complications.
Abstract:Hyperglycemia and insulin resistance are found in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D) and together contribute to the early onset of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Together they lead to overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐ induced oxidative stress, which is considered to be a key mechanism in the development of NAFLD. However, current diabetic therapeutic strategies have failed to halt hepatic oxidative stress efficiently, indicating that anti‐oxidant therapeutic research is needed. Recent st… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
