Abstract

The objective of this study was to isolate, quantify total protein & adiponectin from trimmed off abdominal adipose tissues from halal meat sources namely chicken, beef and lamb. Abdominal adipose tissues were isolated from the aforementioned sources and rinsed with ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution. Delipidation of the tissues were performed by chloroform/methanol extractions. The protein concentration was determined by using Protein Assay Bicinchoninate Kit method. This was followed by quantification of the adiponectin using ELISA kit assay. The experiment was conducted in triplicates and the results were presented as means ± SD. Results indicated that the extraction of 10 gram subcutaneous adipose tissues from chicken, beef and lamb yielded 0.10 gram of protein amount which was 1 % from the total tissue mass. The protein concentration in adipose tissue of chicken, beef and lamb were 1.25 ± 0.05, 1.75 ± 0.05 & 2.53 ± 0.07 mg/ml respectively. The adiponectin concentration in chicken, beef and lamb were 158 ± 0.05 ng/ml, 24 ± 0.05 11g/ml and 37 ± 0.08 ng/ml respectively. Adiponectin from these sources may be one of the promising candidates for future pharmacological treatment strategies for insulin resistance and metabolic diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Despite a considerable progress in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), it remains a major medical challenge in the 21st century, threatening the health and economy of all nations particularly the developing countries. Spices which are added to the preparation of diets for taste and aroma have been shown to be effective in the control of hyperglycemia both in animals and human studies. In this study, 20 patients were recruited from the Medical Out-patient Department of Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan Kuantan, Malaysia. The study protocol was approved by the International Islamic Medical University Malaysia Research Ethical Committee and the Clinical Research Committee (CRC) Ministry of Health Malaysia. 10 patients were provided with the Placebo and another 10 patients were served with 4 g of mixed spices daily for 30 days. Blood samples were collected before and at the end of the feeding period and analyzed for the parameters namely Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), post-prandial blood sugar (2HPP), Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) and Lipid Profile. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS Statistical Software version 12. All the patients tolerated mixed spices very well and showed an improvement in their general well being. The blood results showed a significant improvement in FBS and total cholesterol (p<0.05). This preliminary clinical trial shows that the formulated spices have positive effect in T2DM patients.
