Resumo

We investigated the hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects of two hesperertin glycosides, namely, hesperidin and cyclodextrin (CD)-clathrated hesperetin, in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) weanling rats with type 2 diabetes. We demonstrated that hesperidin and CD-hesperetin normalized glucose metabolism by altering the activities of glucose-regulating enzymes and reducing the levels of lipids in the serum and liver of the GK rats. These effects of hesperidin glycosides were partly produced by altering the expression of genes encoding the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reductase, and the low-density lipoprotein receptor.
