     thiazolidinediones constitute a family of antidiabetic drugs, and rosiglitasone (rsg) has an extensive usage in treating the complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus. carvacrol (cvl), a monoterpenic phenol that occurs in many essential oils of the family labiatae including origanum, satureja, thymbra, thymus, and corydothymus species, possess a wide variety of pharmacological properties including antioxidant potential. we hypothesized that carvacrol in combination with rsg would prove beneficial to ameliorate the dysregulated carbohydrate metabolism in high-fat diet (hfd)-induced type 2 diabetic c57bl/6j mice. mice were divided into six groups and fed hfd, for 10 weeks. cvl (20 mg/kg bw) and rsg (4 mg/kg bw) were administered post-orally, daily for 35 days. hfd mice showed an elevation in plasma glucose, insulin, glycosylated hemoglobin and a decrease in hemoglobin. the activities of carbohydrate metabolic enzymes such as glucose-6-phosphatase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase increased whereas glucokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities decreased in the liver of hfd mice. the activities of hepatic marker enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase increased in hfd mice. combination of cvl and rsg prevented the above changes toward normalcy. histopathological analysis of h&e stained pancreas was also in agreement with the biochemical findings. these major findings provide evidence that combination of cvl with rsg has better antidiabetic properties.
