However, there was less scientific evidence regarding bioactivities in Thai silkworm races. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This research was interested in toxicity and antioxidant activities of Thai silkworm races. &lt;strong&gt;Material and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The 5th instar, 3rd day of growth stage of Thai traditional silkworm (Nanglai, Nangnoi and Samrong races) were lyophilized by freeze dryer and ground as silkworm powder. The acute and sub-acute toxicities studies were carried out in male Wistar rats. The antioxidant capacities of silkworm powder were investigated with DPPH, ABTS and FRAP methods. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The acute toxicity in rats by single dose oral administration show that the high dose at a concentration of 2,000 mg/kg b.w. did not have toxicity in rats. The sub-acute toxicity in rats by oral administration showed that the high dose concentration at 2,000 mg/kg body weight for 6 weeks had no toxicity in all group either. In addition, the hematological parameters and lipid profiles of treated group and control groups were not significantly different. The antioxidant study showed that silkworm powders were not significant difference in all groups of samples in three assays (DPPH, ABTS and FRAP). However, significant difference had been found in comparison to ascorbic acid (p &amp;lt; 0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Silkworm powder from three races of Thai silkworm did not produce any toxicity in male rats. In addition, the silkworm powder also exhibited antioxidant activities.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">541</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Surapong Rattana&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, Teeraporn Katisart&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Bunleu Sungthong&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Chirapha Butiman&lt;sup&gt;4 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

All hematological parameters of each group were not different within those values (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;gt;0.05). In case of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and alkaline phosphatase value showed that some of treated groups was different from diabetic control (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05), while all of treated groups showed different in cholesterol and high density lipoprotein value (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Silkworm powders, fibroin and sericin of three races exhibited a therapeutic potential for the reduction plasma glucose level. Treatments of silkworm powder, fibroin and sericin did not have any effect on hematological parameters.

Pruski. is a member of the family Asteraceae and has used traditionally in the prevention and treatment of various diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Aim:&lt;/strong&gt; The research was aimed to determine chronic toxicity of 80% ethanolic leaf extract from &lt;em&gt;S.trilobata&lt;/em&gt; (STLE). Materials and Methods: STLE at the doses of 200 or 400 mg/kg b. w. was oral given to the healthy Wistar rats daily for 90 days. &lt;strong&gt;Statistical analysis used:&lt;/strong&gt; Statistical analysis was carried out using F-test (One-Way ANOVA) followed by Duncan&amp;rsquo;s New Multiple Range Test. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; STLE did not produce any signs or symptoms of chronic toxicity. And also, the mortal rat was not observed during a period of an observation. Furthermore, STLE did not alter the body weight, relative organ (liver, pancreas, kidney and heart) weight, hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, platelet, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, blood cell characteristics, ultrastructure of RBC, and histological features of hepatic, pancreatic and renal tissues in the STLE treated rats comparing to control rats. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; These findings indicate that the leaf extract from &lt;em&gt;S. trilobata&lt;/em&gt; exerts non chronic toxicity in rats and can be used safely as a traditional medicine or diet complement without any effect on hepatic and renal functions. &lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">323</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Areeya Suchantabud&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Teeraporn Katisart&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Chusri Talubmook&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The body weight and blood glucose level were measured weekly. At the end of the experiments, blood samples were collected from cardiac puncture and analyzed for serum insulin levels. The pancreatic tissues were stained by hematoxylin-eosin for histo-pathological investigations. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Normal and diabetic rats treated with TTE and glibenclamide tended to have an increased body weight. TTE significantly decreased the blood glucose level by 25.01 &amp;plusmn; 19.77% in week 3 in diabetic rats and similar to that of glibenclamide group (27.01 &amp;plusmn; 11.89%). However, the extracts slightly decreased the blood glucose level in normal rats by 9.48 &amp;plusmn; 2.14% in week 2. TTE significantly increased serum insulin level by 21.63 &amp;plusmn; 1.39 IU/mL in diabetic rats compared to the controls (10.63 &amp;plusmn; 0.37 IU/mL) but not in normal rats. In additions, TTE activated the regeneration of pancreatic Islets of Langerhans in diabetic rats which in turn stimulated insulin secretion. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; TTE exhibits the hypoglycemic potential by stimulating insulin secretion from the pancreas.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">621</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Teeraporn Katisart&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Surapong Rattana&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
