- Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a chronic condition marked by insulin resistance and high blood sugar. This study evaluated the hypoglycemic effect of Pediococcus acidilactici strain LBSU8 (PALBSU8), a lactic acid bacterium isolated from buffalo rumen, in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. PALBSU8 may improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity through mechanisms like short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and intestinal barrier modulation. Four groups of Wistar rats received different treatments: Normal control, diabetic (STZ and high-fat diet), positive control (STZ, high-fat diet, and acarbose), and PALBSU8. Postprandial blood glucose was monitored over 21 days. The PALBSU8 group showed significant blood glucose reduction compared to the diabetic group, though levels remained higher than the normal group. Statistical tests (p<0.001) confirmed significant differences, especially in weeks two and three. PALBSU8 demonstrated potential as an alternative probiotic for T2DM management.
