Abstract

The influence of the aqueous pods extract of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) on indicators of carbohydrate metabolism under the condition of experimental type 1 diabetes in rats was studied. It was shown that long-term oral administration of the extract at a dose of 200 mg/kg to rats leads to the decreasing of blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin in the background of chronic hypoinsulinemia conditions. The use of studied extract led to an increase of glycogen synthase activity in rat muscle cells and hexokinase activity in rat liver cells under the conditions of type 1diabetes. It was estimated that administration of the aqueous extract to control rats and animals with studied model of diabetes increases GLUT-4 protein content in muscle tissue. Thus, the mechanisms of P.vulgaris hypoglycemic action can be related with the ability of the particular phytoconstituents directly effect on key intracellular elements of insulin target tissues carbohydrate metabolism under the conditions of type 1 diabetes.

Keywords: type 1diabetes; carbohydrate metabolism; Phaseolus vulgaris; kidney bean; aqueous extract.
