For antioxidant studies, byesukar was administered orally for 30 days at a dose of 500 mg/kg body weight to alloxan induced diabetic male wistar rats. All the animals were sacrificed on the 31st day and the levels of LPO, SOD, CAT, GPx, GST and GR in kidney and liver of control and experimental rats were studied. The extracts exhibited significant antioxidant activity showing increased levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione s-transferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR) and decreased level of lipid peroxidation. These results showed that treatment with byesukar lowers alloxan induced LPO and alters SOD, CAT, GPx, GST and GR enzymes to reduce oxidative stress.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Q Science, Computer Science</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">R Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Nursing</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2005</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Malaysian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Journal</mods:genre></mets:xmlData></mets:mdWrap></mets:dmdSec><mets:amdSec ID="TMD_oai:myais.fsktm.um.edu.my:2280"><mets:rightsMD ID="rights_oai:myais.fsktm.um.edu.my:2280_mods"><mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="mods"><mets:xmlData><mods:useAndReproduction>
