• W3202716094 abstract "BackgroundRuzu herbal bitters (RHB) is a polyherbal mixture produced in Nigeria indicated for diabetes and other ailments. The consumers of the product testify of its efficacy, but there are not much scientific information on RHB. The study determined the effect of RHB on the liver function and lipid profile parameters of alloxan-induced diabetic rats.MethodFifty-four adult albino rats were divided into nine groups of six rats each. Group 1 was the normal control, while groups 2–6 were diabetic. Group 2 was not treated, while groups 3–6 were respectively treated with 5 mg/kg b.w of glibenclamide, 0.14, 0.29, and 0.57 ml/kg b.w of RHB. Groups 7–9 were not diabetic but treated as groups 4–6. Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of freshly prepared alloxan into adult male albino Wister rats with a single dose of 120 mg/kg body weight. The blood sugar level, weight, liver function, and lipid profile of the rats were tested using standard methods.ResultThe results showed a significant (P < 0.05) increase in the blood glucose level and decrease in weight in the diabetic-untreated group compared to the normal group. The liver function and lipid profile tests showed significant (P<0.05) increases in the activities of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST); increases in the levels of total bilirubin, total cholesterol (T.CHOL), triglycerides (TG), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL); decreases in the levels of total protein, albumin and high-density lipoproteins (HDL), in the diabetic-untreated group compared to the normal group. However, treatment of the diabetic rats with different doses of RHB caused the reversal of these effects to near-normal levels in a dose-dependent manner.ConclusionsOur study reveals that RHB has antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, and antihyperlipidemic effects.
