Effect ofSiraitia GrosvenoriiPolysaccharide on Glucose and Lipid of Diabetic RabbitsInduced by Feeding High Fat/High Sucrose Chow

[摘要] TheSiraitia grosvenoriipolysaccharide (SGP) from theSiraitia grosvenorii(Swingle) was isolated and purified. The therapeutic effects of SGP on diabetic rabbits induced by feeding high fat/high sucrose chow were studied. After administration of SGP for 4 weeks, the fasting blood glucose (FBG), plasma insulin levels (INS), plasma total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and HDL-C were assayed. The results showed that administration of SGP can significantly decrease plasma total cholesterol, triglyceride, and glucose levels; and increase HDL-C levels after 4 weeks of treatment. The antihyperglycaemic effect of SGP at dose of 100 mg⋅kg−1bw was the most significant in three dosage groups. Furthermore, SGP could restore the blood lipid levels of diabetic rabbits (P<.05). These data indicate that SGP not only ameliorates the lipid disorder, but also lowers plasma glucose levels. So SGP have obvious glucose-lowering effect on hyperglycaemic rabbits induced by feeding high fat/high sucrose chow, its mechanism may be related to amelioration of lipid metabolism and restoring the blood lipid levels of hyperglycaemic rabbits.
