(Momordica Charantia Linn.) Extracts on Blood Glucose Level. 7.1.1. Background of the research • Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by symptoms of hyperglycemia as a result of impaired insulin secretion. • Deficiency of insulin hormone that serves to utilize glucose as a source of energy and synthesize fats caused by the pancreas is no longer able to secreze insulin, while the deficiency of insulin hormone relative due to insufficient production of insulin With body requirements • DM disease is very danger and can not be cured, so the use of drugs is the main choice of the sulfonylurea and Biguanid group better known as the trademark Glibenclamide • Use of the drug as an anti-diabetes usually lasts long and causes the emergence of unwanted side effects. • One alternative to reduce the cost of treatment of DM disease is to use pare fruit to swing blood glucose levels.Pare fruit content that is useful to lower blood glucose is charantin. Penyakit Diabetes Mellitus 7.1.2. Objective(s) of the research
• Based on the background above,
research is done by the effect of pare fruit extract (Momordica charantia Linn.) to blood glucose levels. 7.1.3. Research Methodology • By being processed into extracts by the Maceration method will be obtained pure pare extract, so pare fruit extract can be used for antifertility which can later be known by looking at estrogen levels in the blood. 7.1.4. Result & Analysis • The mechanism of action of the charantin is to stimulate the beta cells of the pancreas gland to produce more insulin, and increase the reserve of glycogen in the liver.While polyeptide-P insulin lowers blood glucose levels directly. 7.1.5. Conclusion & Recommendation • Conclusion • Fruit pare (Momordicia charantia) at a dose 500 mg/kg of BB effectively lowers the blood glucose levels of the human. • Recommendation • More research is needed to know the effect of pare (Momordicia Charantia) against experimental diabetics of human by induction of other diabetagon substances and their influence To a picture of the histopathology of β cells in the pancreatic gland.
