Stevioside modulates oxidative damage in the liver and kidney of high fat/low streptozocin diabetic rats
This study investigated the potential of stevioside to prevent oxidative DNA damage in the liver and kidney of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using high fat-low streptozocin rat model. Rats were treated daily with 12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg stevioside orally for 21 days. Levels of biomarkers of T2DM, lipid profile and oxidative stress were assayed spectrophotometrically. The DNA ladder assay method...
