Cellgevity® attenuates liver distruption, oxidative stress and inflammation in STZ-diabetic male rats
The imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the innate antioxidant defence promotes oxidative distress and contributes to tissue dysfunctions which are the hallmark of diabetic complications. Diabetic hepatic injury is less reported, yet it is a target organ damage condition r...

The imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and the innate antioxidant defence promotes oxidative distress and contributes to tissue dysfunctions which are the hallmark of diabetic complications. Diabetic hepatic injury is less reported, yet it is a target organ damage condition related to diabetes. This study investigated the hepato-protective potentials of Cellgevity® in Streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic male rats. The rats were assigned into – Control group and diabetes induced groups (DM-untreated, DM-treated 1 and DM-treated 2 groups respectively). Separate treatment of the DM-treated 1 and DM-treated 2 groups with therapeutic doses of Cellgevity® (25 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg BW respectively) was conducted for 30 days, while the control and DM-untreated groups receieved oral distilled water (placebo).
