MMP-9/NGAL Modulation by Piper Crocatum in Early Diabetic Nephropathy

Modulation of MMP-9/NGAL Ratio in Diabetic Patients With Early Renal Dysfunction by Piper Crocatum Functional Foods

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Nov 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether functional foods made with Piper crocatum (red betel leaf) can reduce kidney damage markers in people with diabetes who have early kidney dysfunction. Researchers aim to find out if these foods can help decrease inflammation and oxidative stress, which are known to worsen kidney problems in diabetes. Participants are divided into two groups: one group will consume cookies containing Piper crocatum extract, while the other group will consume similar cookies without the extract (placebo). They will eat these cookies twice a day for 12 weeks. This study will measure changes in two main kidney damage markers-MMP-9 and NGAL-before and after the intervention to see if Piper crocatum helps lower these markers and supports kidney health.
