ABSTRACT

La presente investigación evaluó el efecto sobre la glicemia de los extractos acuosos de las hojas de Senna reticulata (nombre común: martingalvis o dorancé), administrados a ratas con diabetes inducida por aloxano. Al grupo control y al que recibió el extracto, se les midió la glicemia en ayunas los días 0, 7 y 15. El análisis de los resultados mostró que la administración del extracto disminuye la glicemia cuando se compara con los valores del día 0 y con los del grupo control, durante los días 7 y 15; si bien estos efectos no fueron significativos estadísticamente muestran indicios de que esta planta posee acciones hipoglicemiantes que deberán ser estudiados en futuras investigaciones.


This research evaluated the effect on blood sugar levels in the aqueous extract of Senna reticulata (common name: pasture killer) leaves, administered to rats with Aloxan induced diabetes. Blood glucose was measured on an empty stomach on day 0, 7 and 15 in the control group and the treatment group. The analysis of results showed that administering the extract reduces blood sugar levels when compared with the values of day 0, and with the control group on days 7 and 15. Even though these effects were not statistically significant, they show clear signs that this plant has hypoglycemic actions that must be studied in future studies.
