Baicalin (BC) is a flavonoid reported to have various pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, immune regulation, and anti-diabetic. This study examines the probable mechanism for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) brought on by streptozotocin (STZ) and the impact of BC on fetal development via AGEs (advanced serum glycation end products) and RAGE (the role of advanced glycation end products).

STZ has been used in the current experimental study to induce diabetes mellitus in pregnant animals (gestational diabetes mellitus). GDM pregnant animals were separated into five groups and were treated with BC in a dose-dependent pattern for 19 days. At the end of the experiment, the fetus and blood samples were drawn from all the pregnant rats to assess the biochemical parameter as well as AGE-RAGE.
