Retama raetam (RR) fruits are used in Saudi traditional medicine for the treatment of diabetes. Current study aimed at evaluating the potential and mechanisms of the antidiabetic activity of the RR methanolic extract in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Oral LD(50) of the extract was found to be
In this study, physicochemical, interfacial and emulsifying properties of Retama reatam and guar galactomannans were comparatively investigated. The results showed that Retama reatam galactomannan is mainly composed of total carbohydrates (95.52%) and lower protein contents (0.87%). The sugars
Retama raetam (Forsk.) Webb & Berthel plant has been traditionally used for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Interest in the medicinal chemistry of the plant in the past resulted in the isolation of a number of compounds with anti-hyperglycemic activity. The current work is a
BACKGROUND
Retama raetam (RR) fruit is used in traditional Saudi folk medicine as a hypoglycemic herb. However, the potential toxicity of RR has not been fully investigated. The current study aimed to explore the potential acute and subacute toxicities of the methanolic extract of RR fruit in male
The genus Retama (Fabaceae) is widely distributed in the Mediterranean region. In the present study, pinitol (3-O-methyl-chiro-inositol), an anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic molecule, was isolated from aerial parts of R. monosperma, and its structure established on the basis of spectroscopic
