Item type:Publication, Chemical characterization of Centaurium erythrea L. and its effects on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in experimental diabetes(Elsevier BV, 2014-02-27) ;Stefkov, Gjoshe; ;Dinevska-Kjovkarovska, Suzana ;Stanoeva, Jasmina PetreskaCentaurium erythrea L. fam. Gentianaceae (CE) has been traditionally used for centuries in folk medicine of Balkans as a bitter medicinal herb for digestive complications and for treating febrile conditions and diabetes. The aim of this study was to gain insight into the chemical composition and underlying biochemical mechanism of action of the antihyperglycemic and antilipidemic activities of the dry extract of Centaurium erythrea L., wildly growing and traditionally used medicinal plant in the Republic of Macedonia. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Regulation of carbohydrate metabolism and insulin secretion in diabetic rats following treatment with Hypericum perforatum L. hairy root aqueous methanol extract(Society of Chemists and Technologists of Macedonia, 2024-05-19) ;Rafailovska, Elena ;Tusevski, Oliver ;Gadzovska- Simic, Sonja; Petreska Stanoeva, JasminaHairy root (HR) cultures of Hypericum perforatum L. have shown promise in controlling hyperglycemia, regulating blood lipid and enzyme profiles, and improving metabolic function in vivo. These benefits are mainly attributed to the phenolic acids, flavonoids, and xanthones present in HR extracts. However, the specific mechanism underlying these effects remains unclear. This study was performed to elucidate the biochemical and molecular mechanisms driving HR the antihyperglycemic and antidiabetic effects of HR extracts. HR extract (200 mg/kg body weight) was administered daily for 14 days to healthy rats and rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes, with glibenclamide serving as a positive control. The phenolic composition of the HR extracts was confirmed through high-performance liquid chromatography/diode array detection/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC/DAD/ESI-MSn ) analysis. The results showed that HR extract treatment increased the plasma insulin level and pancreatic poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity in diabetic rats, thus normalizing blood glucose levels. Additionally, it reduced the activity of gluconeogenic enzymes, increased the activity of glycolytic enzymes, and normalized the glycogen content in the liver. HR extract-treated rats also exhibited increased hepatic adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) mRNA expression and a decreased protein kinase Cε (PKCε) concentration. In conclusion, HR extract demonstrated insulinotropic effects and effectively regulated hepatic carbohydrate metabolism in diabetic rats by modulating AMPK expression and the PKCε concentration. These findings suggest the potential use of HR extract as an herbal medicine for diabetes treatment and a source of antidiabetic drug development. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, A Moderate Increase in Ambient Temperature Influences The Structure and Hormonal Secretion of Adrenal Glands in Rats(2021-01) ;Popovska-Perčinić, Florina ;Manojlović-Stojanoski, Milica; ;Dinevska Kjovkarovska, SuzanaAs a consequence of global warming, the increase in the average annual temperature is observed, while the living organisms actively adapt to these changes. High environmental temperature initiates numerous physiological, autonomic, and behavioral responses, and activates the stress response. Thus, the aim of the study was to investigate effect of a moderate increase in ambient temperature on the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis by determining histological changes in adrenal glands and hormonal levels in adult male rats. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
