Abstract:
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disorder of glucose metabolism that threatens several organs, including the submandibular (SMG) salivary glands. Antox (ANX) is a strong multivitamin with significant antioxidant benefits. Aim of the work: The goal of this study was to demonstrate the beneficial roles of ANX supplementation in combination with insulin in alleviating diabetic SMG changes. Material and Methods: For four weeks,30 rats were divided into equal five groups (n = 6): (1) control group; (2) diabetic group (DM), with DM induced by streptozotocin (STZ) injection (50 mg/kg i.p.); (3) DM + ANX group: ANX was administrated (10 mg/kg/day/once daily/orally); (4) DM + insulin group: insulin was administrated 1U once/ day/s.c.; and (5) DM + insulin + ANX group: co-administrated insulin. Results:The addition of ANX to insulinin diabetic rats alleviated hyposalivation and histopathological alterations associated with diabetic rats. Remarkably, combined ANX and insulin exerted significant antioxidant effects, suppressing inflammatory and apoptotic pathways associated with increased salivary advanced glycation endproduct (AGE) production and receptor for advanced glycation end-product expression (RAGE) activation in diabetic SMG tissues. Conclusion Combined ANX and insulin administration in diabetic rats was more effective in alleviating SMG changes (functions and structures) than administration of insulin alone, exerting suppressive effects on AGE production and frustrating RAGE downstream pathway
