(1)Unit Enzymes et Bioconversio, Ecole Nationale d'Ingnieurs de Sfax, Universit de Sfax, 3038, Sfax, Tunisia, [email protected]. AIM: This study investigated the hypoglycemic and antioxidant effects of shrimpastaxanthin on the kidney of alloxan-induced diabetic rats.METHODS: Animals were distributed into four groups of six rats each: a controlgroup (C), a diabetic group (D), a diabetic group supplemented with Astaxanthin(D+As) dissolved in olive oil and a diabetic group supplemented with olive oil(D+OO). In vitro antidiabetic effect was tested in plasma and kidney tissue.RESULTS: The group D of rats showed significant (P < 0.05) increase of glycemia, creatinine, urea and uric acid levels compared to those of the control group (C).Moreover, plasma and kidney malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyl (PCO)levels for the rats of the group D were significantly increased compared to thecontrol group. Contrariwise, antioxidant enzyme activities, such as catalase (EC 1.11.1.6), superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) and non-enzymatic levels of reducedglutathione, were significantly (P < 0.05) decreased in the plasma and kidney of diabetic rats compared to the control ones. The astaxanthin supplementation inrats diet improved the antioxidant enzyme activities and significantly decreased the MDA and PCO levels compared to diabetic rats.
