RESUMO
We studied the effect of peptide drugs deltalicin and Semax on lipid metabolism disturbances in diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus was modeled by single injection of streptozotocin (45 mg/kg) and rats with blood glucose ≥12 mmol/liter were selected for the further experiments. Deltalicin in a dose 100 µg/kg and Semax in a dose 200 µg/kg as well as sulodexide corrected lipid metabolism disorders: the content of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, index of atherogenicity decreased and HDL concentration increased. Deltalicin produced more potent effect on lipid metabolism in rats with diabetes mellitus than sulodexide and Semax, which manifested in a significant decrease in total cholesterol and LDL concentration and index of atherogenicity.
