Abstract

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is regarded to be a communal complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus in children and adolescents. Successful therapy of DKA in children requires prompt diagnosis, strict monitoring of medical indicators, and prompt action. Thymoquinone (Tq) from black cumin loaded chitosan nanoparticles (ChNPs) intend to assess an effective agent to overcome this problem. XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TEM were used in the physicochemical analysis. Enzymatic activity of α-amylase and α-glucosidase was used in in vitro tests of anti-diabetic efficacy. Protecting insulin against enzyme breakdown is a crucial part of the insulin delivery mechanism. In the STZ-induced diabetes RIN-5F cell line, the anti-apoptotic capability of Tq-ChNPs was demonstrated through the NF-κB mediated apoptotic pathway. The combination of thymoquinone and chitosan NPs demonstrated that a wide variety of incredibly effective substances to elevate their curative effects, thus contributing to the growth of clinical and pharmaceutical fields.
