Abstract

Objective: Hyperalgesia is considered as one of the marked signs of subchronic diabetes mellitus that could affect the life style of the patients. Considering the anti-diabetic potential effect of the medicinal plant Withania somnifera (WS) (Ashwagandha), this study was designed to investigate the analgesic effect of WS on formalin-induced nociceptiye responses in diabetic RATs. Subjects and Methods: RATs were divided into six groups: non-treated control, WS-treated control, STREPTOZOCIN (STZ)-induced diabetic, sodium salicylate (SS)-treated control, diabetic and WS-treated diabetic groups. For induction of diabetes, STZ (60 mg/Kg, i.p.) was administered as a single dose. The treatment groups received orally Withania somnifera -mixed RAT pellet (6.25%) for two months.Results: The results showed that diabetic RATs exhibited a higher score of PAIN at both phases of the formalin test and WS-treated diabetic RATs exhibited a lower nociceptive score at both phases of the test (p<0.05). While, SS administration significantly reduced PAIN score only at chronic phase of the test in the diabetic group (p<0.01).Conclusion: Taken together, these results indicate that two-month administration of Withania somnifera could attenuate nociception in an experimental model of diabetes mellitus and this may be considered as a treatment for PAINful diabetic neuropathy.
