Allah be He blessed and exalted had exploited many creatures to serve human as He almighty didn’t create anything without a purpose….
“Skin secretions from a South American “shrinking” frog could be used to treat type 2 diabetes” researchers say.
A compound isolated from the frog, which grows to 27cm as a tadpole before shrinking to 4cm in adulthood, stimulates insulin release.
A synthetic version of the compound – pseudin-2 – could be used to produce new drugs, delegates at the Diabetes UK annual conference heard.
The associated reason mostly is overweight, develops because the body does not produce enough insulin, or when the insulin that is produced does not work properly.
It means people cannot regulate their blood glucose levels properly.
Can anyone imagine that this little animal can help human in treatment of diseases. Glory to Allah……
Scientists from the University of Ulster and United Arab Emirates University have tested a synthetic version of pseudin-2, a compound which protects the paradoxical frog from infection.
The scientists found it stimulated the secretion of insulin in pancreatic cells in the laboratory. And importantly, there were no toxic effects on the cells.
The synthetic version was better at stimulating insulin than the natural compound, opening the way for it potential development as a drug for treating diabetes.
” More research is needed, but there is a growing body of work around natural anti-diabetic drug discovery that, as you can see, is already yielding fascinating results” says Dr Yasser Abdel-Wahab the study leader and senior lecturer in biomedical sciences at the University of Ulster.
Allah almighty says about atheists and disbelievers: (Do they indeed ascribe to Him as partners things that can create nothing, but are themselves created?)(Sûrat Al-Aaraf-verse191)
God be He blessed and exalted put in every creature a benefit for us despite the unscientific claims by atheists who say that these creatures are existed without a purpose.
From the above we can conclude that every creature has a benefit whether we identified that benefit or not. Allah almighty says: (And He has subjected to you, as from Him, all that is in the heavens and on earth: Behold, in that are Signs indeed for those who reflect) (Sûrat Al- Ghasiya- verse 13).
Indeed we have to thank Allah for His graces and say what Allah taught us to say: (“Glory to Him Who has subjected these to our (use), for we could never have accomplished this (by ourselves) *And to our Lord, surely, must we turn back!”)(Sûrat Az-Zukhruf- verse13-14).
