Diabetes mellitus type II, the chronic endocrine disorder, affects metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, electrolytes and water. This type of diabetes can only be controlled by maintaining low levels of blood glucose and through a healthy lifestyle1. The currently available medicines, viz. biguanides, sulphonylureas and thiazolidinediones, pose risks of secondary failure and prominent side-effects. Therefore, it is imperative to go for the alternative approach, a strong antidiabetic activity, without any spin-off results.

Abstract


Diabetes mellitus type II, the chronic endocrine disorder, affects metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, electrolytes and water. This type of diabetes can only be controlled by maintaining low levels of blood glucose and through a healthy lifestyle1. The currently available medicines, viz. biguanides, sulphonylureas and thiazolidinediones, pose risks of secondary failure and prominent side-effects. Therefore, it is imperative to go for the alternative approach, a strong antidiabetic activity, without any spin-off results.
