Diabefit as a Modifier of Fructose-induced Impairment of Cardio-vascular System.
2021
Today, cardiovascular diseases, due to their widespread prevalence, are among the most relevant biomedical problems in the modern world. The development of cardiovascular comorbidity among patients with diabetes mellitus is of high clinical urgency. Therefore, the study of cardiovascular risk modification among patients with diabetes mellitus is of paramount importance. In the context of the above, the data on the cardiotoxicity of fructose look very alarming since these patients usually use fructose as an affordable alternative to glucose. At the same time, it is an independent inducer of destabilization of cardiovascular homeostasis. Sixty rats were used in the experiment to study this problem. Modeling of fructose-induced overload was performed using a diabetic fructose supplement in an aqueous solution. The collection of herbs "Diabefit" was used as an infusion in addition to feeding highly enriched with fructose. The used markers which reflect the state of the heart and the blood vessels were: MDA, SOD, NO, and ET-1. MDA, ET-1, and NO concentrations demonstrated a significant increase in the fructose overload group and a significant decrease in the Diabefit group. At the same time, changes in SOD level as an indicator of the antioxidant reserve, on the contrary, implied a decrease in the group with a high fructose content and increased in the Diabefit group. All detected changes were associated with fructose-induced inhibition of SOD activity and its restoration using the Diabefit phyto-collection.
