Abstract

Objective: The pancreas is a vital organ that produces metabolic hormones and enzymes. Type II diabetes either arises from defective insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cell cells or a diminished pancreatic beta-cell mass. The possible effects of grape seed extract on various metabolic diseases have been investigated in recent years. This study was designed to determine the effect of grape seed extract therapy on pancreatic mass.
