Abstract

Diabetes is characterized by elevated blood sugar levels or hyperglycemia. Diabetes can lead to decreased erythrocyte and hemoglobin levels, as well as increased leukocyte counts. This study aimed to analyze the phytochemical content of Stachytarpheta sp. Leaf extract and evaluate its protective effects on blood sugar levels and blood profiles of mice, including hemoglobin levels, total erythrocyte, and total leukocyte in alloxan-induced diabetic mice. The study included five treatment groups: K1 (normal), K2 (aquades 0.3 ml), and three treatment groups receiving varying doses of Stachytarpheta sp. Leaf extract (P1: 200 mg/kg BW; P2: 300 mg/kg BW; P3: 400 mg/kg BW) administered for 15 days. Afterward, groups K2, P1, P2, and P3 were induced with alloxan 170 mg/kg BW and measured blood sugar levels 5 days after induction. Results indicated that Stachytarpheta sp. Leaf extract contains phytochemical compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, and terpenoids. Blood sugar levels measured after alloxan induction showed hyperglycemia in K2, while P1, P2, and P3 showed normal blood sugar levels. The leaf extract demonstrated a protective effect against hyperglycemia and influenced erythrocyte and leukocyte counts, but had no significant effect on hemoglobin levels.
