Table 3 Effect of mango peel extract and mangiferin on Liver and Muscle glycogen level in the alloxan-induced type I diabetic rat

From: Antidiabetic activity of mango peel extract and mangiferin in alloxan-induced diabetic rats

Group

Liver glycogen (mg/g)

Muscle glycogen (mg/g)

Control (Tc)

18.31 ± 0.26

9.05 ± 0.38

Alloxan (Ta)

10.35 ± 0.42**

5.98 ± 0.53**

Alloxan + extract (Tae)

19.31 ± 0.41#

9.6 ± 0.24#

Alloxan + mangiferin (Tam)

15.57 ± 1.09#

8.29. ± 1.72#

  1. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 6); *Significant at 5% level, **Significant at 1% level and #Not significant
  2. The fluctuations of stored glycogen in liver and muscle levels in different groups are stated in Table 3. The difference between the diabetic groups (Ta) and control (Tc) was statistically significant (p < 0.01). In mangiferin-treated group (Tam) and mango peel extract group (Tae), there was no statistically significant disparity with the control group (Tc)
