Abstract : Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects approximately 20-25% of Saudi citizens. DM is as much a vascular disease as it is a metabolic disease, as evidenced by the fact that vascular complications caused by endothelial cells dysfunction are the main cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes. Obesity is a major worldwide health problem that is closely associated with the development of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease, among other medical problems. An important mechanism by which obesity leads to the development of all of the above metabolic and vascular diseases is the development of insulin resistance. In spite of the fact that insulin has become one of the most important therapeutic agents known to medicine, research workers have been making efforts to find insulin substitutes from synthetic or plant sources for the treatment of diabetes and associated fetal diseases caused by endothelial cells dysfunction. Many herbs have remained as alternatives to conventional therapy especially in poor areas where insulin is not readily available. Many plants are used as folk medicines in the treatment of diabetes mellitus e.g. Punica granatum, Avena sativa, Linum usitatissimum, Lupinus albus and Coriandrum sativum. In this work we will extract bioactive materials from some of these plants for ameliorating endothelial cell dysfunction associated with diabetes and obesity.
