In Vitro Study Of The Effect Of Corn Silk On Glucose Uptake By Isolated Rat Hemi-Diaphragm
In the present study the methanolic extract of corn silk was evaluated for antidiabetic activity. The antidiabetic activity was studied using the glucose uptake by isolated rat hemi-diaphragm using in-vitro model. Corn silk increased the uptake of glucose by isolated rat hemidiaphragm significantly...

| description | In the present study the methanolic extract of corn silk was evaluated for antidiabetic activity. The antidiabetic activity was studied using the glucose uptake by isolated rat hemi-diaphragm using in-vitro model. Corn silk increased the uptake of glucose by isolated rat hemidiaphragm significantly (P<0.001) and was found to be more effective than insulin. It appears that corn silk has direct peripheral action on glucose uptake. The value of glucose uptake by rat hemi-diaphragm after addition of corn silk extract was 109±1 as compared to control (12± 1) and Insulin (49 ± 8)mg/g/30min .These results strongly suggest
that Corn silk will be alternative choice for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. |
