This study was carried out to understand the effects Of Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen and Silk Worm powder on blood sugar in the db/db mice. Refined Bambusae Caulis in LiquamenD(BCL,D)manufactured by high temperature production process and Silk Worm Powder were used. The Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen extracted from bamboo charcoal manufacturing process was filtered and refined. The effects of BCL.D + Silk Worm Powder and BCL.D were observed in terms of blood sugar, creatinine, BUN, GPT and histological examination of pancreatic tissue in db/db mice. The results were as follows : The amount of glucose was slightly decreased (P < 0.05) in the B CL.D+SWP groups compared with the control. The amount of glucose was significantly decreased (P < 0.01) in the BCL.D groups compared with the control. The amount of Creatinine did not show any differences among three groups. The amount of blood urea nitrogen observed significant decrease in the case of BCL.D groups. The amount of GPT did not show any differences among three groups. The intense of insulin-immunoreactivity of β cells showed the strongest in the normal group, and more strong in the BCL.D+SWP group compared with control group.
