Abstract
La investigación examinó el potencial hipoglucemiante del extracto foliar de pasuchaca en ratones. Objetivo: Determinar el efecto hipoglucemiante del extracto hidroalcohólico de hojas secas de Geranium ruizii Hieron en ratones albinos con hiperglucemia inducida por aloxano. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio experimental en 30 ratones albinos machos, distribuidos de manera aleatoria en seis grupos de cinco ratones cada uno. Un grupo recibió el vehículo sin inducción; los otros fueron tratados con aloxano a 150 mg/kg. Tras confirmar la hiperglucemia, se administró el vehículo, la metformina 250 mg/kg/día o extracto a 50,150 o 300 mg/kg/día, por vía oral durante 14 días. Seguidamente, la glucemia se midió antes de la inducción y en los días 0, 7 y 14 del tratamiento. Resultados: La reducción media de glucemia al día 14 fue de 28,0 %, 56,1 % y 51,9 % con 50, 150 y 300 mg/kg, respectivamente; el control negativo registró un aumento de 11,2 % y la metformina una reducción de 62,2 %. Conclusión: El extracto redujo la glucemia en este modelo murino; 150 mg/kg produjo la mayor reducción entre las dosis estudiadas, aunque inferior a la obtenida con metformina.
The study examined the hypoglycemic potential of *pasuchaca* leaf extract in mice. Objective: To determine the hypoglycemic effect of a hydroalcoholic extract of *Geranium ruizii* Hieron dried leaves in albino mice with alloxan-induced hyperglycemia. Methods: An experimental study was conducted on 30 male albino mice, randomly assigned to six groups of five mice each. One group received the vehicle without induction; the others were treated with alloxan at 150 mg/kg. Following confirmation of hyperglycemia, the subjects were administered the vehicle, metformin (250 mg/kg/day), or the extract (at 50, 150, or 300 mg/kg/day) orally for 14 days. Blood glucose levels were measured prior to induction and on days 0, 7, and 14 of the treatment period. Results: The mean reduction in blood glucose on day 14 was 28.0%, 56.1%, and 51.9% for the 50, 150, and 300 mg/kg doses, respectively; the negative control group showed an 11.2% increase, while the metformin group showed a 62.2% reduction. Conclusion: The extract reduced blood glucose levels in this murine model; the 150 mg/kg dose produced the greatest reduction among the doses studied, although this was less than the reduction achieved with metformin.
