Abstract

The present study is focused on the potential nephroprotective benefits of plant extracts when used alone or in combination therapy. The existing research study streptozotocin (60mg/kg) model was used to develop diabetes and its consequences, such as neuropathy and nephropathy. One of the key indicators of nephropathic consequences leading to changes in renal function.The obtained results demonstrated that the treatment of diabetic nephropathy was significantly improved by Calotropis gigantea (500mg/kg) both alone and in combination with Cucumis pubescens (500mg/kg). It might be concluded that in diabetes mellitus persuaded lipid dysregulation and oxidative stress in association with increase in blood glucose levels plays a key role in the commencement of nephropathy in diabetic rats. Along with modern allopathic medicine, treatment needs multidrug therapy; and besides the treatment, various complications are associated with these marketed medicines. The results of lipid profile abnormalities, oxidative stress, glycemic management, serum creatinine level, and blood urea regulation revealed that plants might potentially control and treat diabetic-induced diabetic nephropathy.Extracts of the Calotropisgigantea and Cucumispubescens play a considerable and tremendous effect in the management of diabetic nephropathy.
