- Evaluate the effects of yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) in diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM 1).
- Antidiabetogenic effect of the fructans.
- Toxic effect streptozotocin.
- Diabetic dyslipidemia.
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) actives in DM 1.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) (Poepp.& Endl.) on clinical parameters under diabetic conditions. The aqueous extract of yacon tuberous roots (YRAE; 0.76 g fructan kgâ1 body weight) was prepared at the moment of each administration. Thirty-two male rats were divided into four groups (n = 8): control group (C); group that received YRAE (Y); untreated diabetic group (DM1); and diabetic group treated with YRAE (Y-DM1). The diabetes mellitus was induced by streptozotocin (60 mg kgâ1 body weight). The animals from Y2 and Y-DM1 received YRAE by gavage, at 7-day intervals, for 30 days. The aqueous extract of yacon roots decreased (p < 0.05) the water and food intake in diabetic rats (Y-DM1). YRAE treatment reduced (p < 0.05) glycaemia, total cholesterol, VLDL-c, LDL-c and triacylglycerol levels in diabetic rats (YRAE). HDL, urea and creatinine levels did not differ (p > 0.05) between the Y and Y-DM1 groups. YRAE normalised alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, when comparing DM1 and Y-DM1 rats, but had no effect on lactate dehydrogenase activity (LDH). In conclusion, YRAE was sufficient for controlling water and food consumption, hyperglycaemia and dyslipidaemia, and promote the reduction of the ALT, suggesting a hepatoprotective effect in rats with STZ-induced DM1.
