Abstract Background: Disturbances in mitochondrial complex1 functioning plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of β-cells dysfunction in pancreas in diabetic mellitus (DM), and the redox-potential is a contributing factor to redox imbalance, pseudo hypoxia and chronic inflammation. The objective of this study was to assess the correlation between changes in redox-potential and inflammation response of blood and pancreases in streptozotocin (STZ)-nicotinamide (NA) induced DM in rats and ability of various pharmacological agents to its correction. Materials and methods: In randomized controlled study in rats with DM type 2 (T2DM) induced by i.p. injection of 110 mg/kg NA 15 min before intravenously injection of 65 mg/kg of STZ the redox-immune axis dist... view moreĀ»
