Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to impaired insulin secretion. Diabetes often causes serious complications such as diabetic wounds, which are characterized by the appearance of ulcers, infections, or tissue damage in the feet. Conventional therapeutic approaches often show less than optimal effectiveness due to limited drug penetration into damaged skin tissue. The use of natural ingredients with antidiabetic and wound healing activities has been widely studied, but their effectiveness is often hampered by low solubility, stability, and bioavailability. One innovative strategy to overcome these problems is the development of nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems, one of which is Nanostructured Lipid Carrier (NLC). NLC is a lipid delivery system that combines solid and liquid lipids to increase stability, drug loading capacity, and control the release of active compounds. Purpose: This article aims to review the development of formulations from natural ingredients that have potential as antidiabetic and diabetic wound healing activities. Methods: This study is a literature review of articles published in the last ten years (2015 – 2025) from the ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases. Results: Based on several studies, it shows that various active compounds such as curcumin (Curcuma longa), bay leaves (Syzygium polyanthum), and other flavonoid compounds have been formulated in the NLC system with significant improvements in stability, bioavailability, and pharmacological effectiveness. Conclusion: The NLC-based drug delivery system from natural ingredients has proven potential in increasing the effectiveness of antidiabetic therapy and diabetic wound healing. Further research is needed to optimize formulation stability, long-term toxicity testing, and clinical validation to support its therapeutic application.

Abstract

Insulin resistance is one of the primary causes of diabetes mellitus, leading to reduced tissue sensitivity to insulin and an increased risk of metabolic complications. The Ethanol Extract of Pacing leaves (EEPL) was evaluated for its potential to prevent insulin resistance in a rat model of diabetes induced by a high-fat, high-fructose diet. The rats were administered EEPL at doses of 150, 300, and 450 mg/kg Body Weight (BW) for 42 days. In addition, a 90-day subchronic toxicity study was conducted to assess potential adverse effects on the liver and kidneys. The results demonstrated that a dose of 300 mg/kg BW significantly improved insulin sensitivity. Biochemical parameters, including creatinine, urea, Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT), and Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), remained within normal ranges, indicating preserved liver and kidney function. However, mild histopathological changes were observed in the kidneys, such as glomerular congestion and tubular necrosis, while the hepatic structure remained normal, with no significant hepatocellular damage. In conclusion, EEPL at a dose of 300 mg/kg BW provides an effective protective effect against insulin resistance, with relatively good safety for long-term use. Nevertheless, further studies are required to confirm its safety in humans.
