Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a heterogeneous metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia with disturbances
in carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism. Vanadium in the form of nanoparticles has been known to
exert better action as an anti-diabetic agent. This study was aimed to assess the histological changes in
the liver, kidney and pancreas of STZ-induced diabetic rats following treatment with vanadium pent
oxide nanoparticles. Histopathological studies on the tissues of liver, kidney and pancreas in diabetic
animals showed degenerative changes and treatment with Nano vanadium was able to partially restore
the degenerative changes indicating the protective effect of vanadium by normalizing biochemical and
histological abnormalities in diabetic rats.
