Effects of asiatic acid, an active constituent in Centella asiatica (L.): restorative perspectives of streptozotocin-nicotinamide induced changes on lipid profile and lipid metabolic enzymes in diabetic rats
The present study was aimed to evaluate the restorative efficacy of asiatic acid (AA), an active constituent in Centella asiatica (L.) in streptozotocin (STZ)-nicotinamide (NAD)-induced diabetic rats. Male Wistar albino rats were made diabetic with STZ-NAD administration and assessed the effect of A...

(L.) in streptozotocin (STZ)-nicotinamide (NAD)-induced diabetic rats. Male Wistar albino rats were made diabetic with STZ-NAD administration and assessed the effect of AA (20, 30, and 40 mg/kg body weight per day, for 45 days) on body weight, glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, lipid metabolic parameters in plasma and tissue (liver and kidney), and histopathology of liver in control and experimental diabetic rats. A significant (
