Digital image analysis was applied to quantify anatomical parameters with a specific focus on the occurrence of signs of structural damage as well as on alterations, such as the occurrence of shrunk tissues and accumulation of phenolic compounds. The aim of this work was to assess the possible coordination mechanisms between leaf functional anatomical traits and physiological acclimation of potted Callistemon citrinus plants when subjected to two saline iso-osmotic solutions using NaCl or CaCl2. gossypiifolia potentiated its anti-diuretic and anti-hyperglycemic properties as early stated in the ethnomedicinal reports. Also, the extract maintained a normal body mass indexes, biochemical and anatomical structure. This study showed that, graded doses of the extract significantly increased diuretic effect, specifically at 100 mg/kg increased diuretic index at 4.29 and urine volume 5.06 and 10 mg/kg Hydrochlorothiazide with 6.23 ml when compared untreated group (1.18 ml) (p 0.05). Diuretic and antidiabetic indexes where evaluated using adopted method. Urine and blood samples were isolated from rats and centrifuged for the determination of renal function test. 0.5 ml/kg normal saline, reference drug and the tested were administered with a single dose of the various drugs, and Streptozotocin (STZ) was freshly prepared in 0.1 M citrate buffer with pH 4.5 prior to induction, animals were fasted 24 h and single dose of 45 mg STZ per kg body weight was administered intraperitoneally. gossypiifolia was subject to diuretics and hyperglycemic properties using established protocol of diuretic and diabetes test on the rat bladders emptied via mild compression in the pelvic region and gently pulling of their tails. 30, 50 and 100 mg/kg of the leaves extracts of J. The leaves was shade dried, pulverized and prepared into extract.
gossypiifolia leave extract on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. This study investigated the anti-diuretic and anti-hyperglycemia activities of J. is a widespread plant in tropical and sub-tropical countries used in traditional medicine.
