Hypoglycemic action of karanjin. 1986

B Mandal, and C R Maity

The hypoglycemic activity of karanjin, 3-methoxy flavono 7,8-furan, was investigated in normal and alloxan-induced diabetic albino rats. Oral administration of karanjin at a dose of 2 mg/kg/day for 7 days caused a significant reduction in blood sugar level both in normal and in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. Acute treatment with a single dose of karanjin, 0.5 mg/kg i.p., produced a significant fall in blood sugar level in normal rats while in alloxan-induced diabetic rats it was ineffective. Impaired glucose tolerance was also improved by karanjin treatment. It is concluded that karanjin has a significant hypoglycemic effect in albino rats.
