Values with the different superscripts in the same column are statistically significant at (p<0.01) Here *** denotes 1% level of significance. Figures indicate the Mean ± SE (standard Error). T0 = control (normal), T1 = streptozotocin (60 mg/kg body weight)-induced diabetes, T2 =streptozotocin-induced diabetes treated with ethanolic extract of Gynura Procumbens (150 mg/kg body weight), and T3= streptozotocin induced diabetes treated with ethanolic extract of Gynura Procumbens (150 mg/kg) and chitosan nanoparticles (25 mg/kg).
