This study investigated the effect of lycopene-rich extract of Solanum lycopersicon on alloxan monohydrate induced diabetic Wistar rat. Twenty five (25) Wistar rats of both sexes of which twenty of which were diabetic, and five were non-diabetic. Diabetes was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of Alloxan monohydrate at 40 mg/kg body weight and it was confirmed by the elevated blood glucose ?200 mg/dl after five...

Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) risk factors proposed by the American Diabetes Association were conducted a nutrigenetic test screening in 4 genes in-volved in glucose and lipid...
Lycopene attenuates diabetes-induced oxidative stress in Wistar rats
Article in Press
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the capacity of lycopene against diabetes-induced oxidative damage in Wistar rats. Thirty Wistar rats of both sexes, twenty-five of which were diabetic, were used. Diabetes was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) 60 mg/kg body weight and it was confirmed by the elevated blood glucose ≥200 mg/dl after three days. The rats were divided randomly into...
