Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) plays a critical role in peripheral glucose homeostasis and energy metabolism, and inhibits cardiac hypertrophy in non-diabetic animal models. The functional role of PPARgamma in the diabetic heart, however, is not fully understood. Therefore, we analyzed cardiac gene expression, metabolic control, and cardiac glucose uptake in male Zucker diabetic fatty rats (ZDF fa/fa) and lean ZDF rats (+/+) treated with the high affinity PPARgamma agonist pioglitazone or placebo from 12 to 24 weeks of age. Hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hypertriglyceridemia as well as lower cardiac PPARgamma, glucose transporter-4 and alpha-myosin heavy chain expression levels were detected in diabetic ZDF rats compared to lean animals. Pioglitazone increased body weight and improved metabolic control, cardiac PPARgamma, glut-4, and alpha-MHC expression levels in diabetic ZDF rats. Cardiac [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose uptake was not detectable by micro-PET studies in untreated and pioglitazone treated ZDF fa/fa rats but was observed after administration of insulin to pioglitazone treated ZDF fa/fa rats. PPARgamma agonists favorably affect cardiac gene expression in type-2 diabetic rats via activation and up-regulation of cardiac PPARgamma expression whereas improvement of impaired cardiac glucose uptake in advanced type-2 diabetes requires co-administration of insulin. 相似文献

In parallel with increased prevalence of overweight people in affluent societies are individuals trying to lose weight, often using low-carbohydrate diets. Nevertheless, long-term metabolic consequences of those diets, usually high in (saturated) fat, remain unclear. Therefore, we investigated long-term effects of high-fat diets with different carbohydrate/protein ratios on energy balance and fuel homeostasis in obese (fa/fa) Zucker and lean Wistar rats. Animals were fed high-carbohydrate (HC), high-fat (HsF), or low-carbohydrate, high-fat, high-protein (LC-HsF-HP) diets for 60 days. Both lines fed the LC-HsF-HP diet displayed reduced energy intake compared with those fed the HsF diet (Zucker, -3.7%) or the HC diet (Wistar rats, -12.4%). This was not associated with lower weight gain relative to HC fed rats, because of increased food efficiencies in each line fed HsF and particularly LC-HsF-HP food. Zucker rats were less glucose tolerant than Wistar rats. Lowest glucose tolerances were found in HsF and particularly in LC-HsF-HP-fed animals irrespective of line, but this paralleled reduced plasma adiponectin levels, elevated plasma resistin levels, higher retroperitoneal fat masses, and reduced insulin sensitivity (indexed by insulin-induced hypoglycemia) only in Wistar rats. In Zucker rats, however, improved insulin responses during glucose tolerance testing and tendency toward increased insulin sensitivities were observed with HsF or LC-HsF-HP feeding relative to HC feeding. Thus, despite adverse consequences of LC-HsF diets on blood glucose homeostasis, principal differences exist in the underlying hormonal regulatory mechanisms, which could have benefits for B-cell functioning and insulin action in the obese state but not in the lean state. 相似文献

ID-1101 (4-hydroxyisoleucine), an amino acid extracted from fenugreek seeds, exhibits an interesting glucose-dependent insulin-stimulating activity. The present study was undertaken to investigate a possible extrapancreatic effect of ID-1101 on insulin signaling and action besides its previously described insulinotropic action. Insulin-sensitizing effects of ID-1101 were investigated in rat in vivo by three different approaches: 1) using euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps in two different rat models of insulin resistance, i.e., Zucker fa/fa rats and rats fed a sucrose-lipid diet; 2) measuring liver and muscle phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity after an acute injection of ID-1101 in normal and insulin-resistant diabetic rats; and 3) after chronic treatment in two rat models of insulin resistance. Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp experiments revealed that ID-1101 can improve insulin resistance through an increase of peripheral glucose utilization rate in sucrose-lipid-fed rats and by decreasing hepatic glucose production in Zucker fa/fa rats. Moreover, we demonstrated that a single injection of ID-1101 activates the PI 3-kinase activity in liver and muscle from normal rats but also in muscle from diabetic rats. Finally, chronic ID-1101 treatment significantly reduced insulinemia in type 2 diabetic rats and reduced the progression of hyperinsulinemia in insulin-resistant obese Zucker fa/fa rats. These findings clearly demonstrate that ID-1101 can reduce insulin resistance through activation of the early steps of insulin signaling in peripheral tissues and in liver. In summary, ID-1101, besides its insulinotropic effect, directly improves insulin sensitivity, making it a potentially very valuable therapeutic agent for diabetes treatment. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of endurance training (10 weeks) on previously reported alterations of lactate exchange in obese Zucker fa/fa rats. We used sarcolemmal vesicles to measure lactate transport capacity in control sedentary rats, Zucker (fa/fa), and endurance trained Zucker (fa/fa) rats. Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) 1 and 4 content was measured in sarcolemmal vesicles and skeletal muscle. Training increased citrate synthase activity in soleus and in red tibialis anterior, and improved insulin sensitivity measured by intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test. Endurance training increased lactate influx in sarcolemmal vesicles at 1 mM of external lactate concentration and increased MCT1 expression on sarcolemmal vesicles. Furthermore, muscular lactate level was significantly decreased after training in red tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus. This study shows that endurance training improves impairment of lactate transport capacity that is found in insulin resistance state like obesity and type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

In vivo studies confirmed that chlorogenic acid (CGA) improved glucose tolerance and mineral pool distribution in obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats. We found a significant decrease (P<.05) in postprandial blood glucose concentrations, which may have been due to an improved sensitivity to insulin. Impaired glucose tolerance and insulin resistance have been associated with differences in the hepatic mRNA expression of the spliced variants of the insulin receptor at exon 11. Spliced variants of the insulin receptor have not been studied in obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats, and no information exists about the effects of CGA in vivo as a possible insulin sensitizer. Thus, we studied the in vivo effect of CGA on plasma insulin concentrations during a glucose tolerance test, liver protein and DNA concentrations, the hepatic activity of glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-PASE) and the mRNA expression of the two variants of the insulin receptor at exon 11. Zucker (fa/fa) rats were implanted with jugular vein catheters. Chlorogenic acid was administered (5 mg/kg body weight per day) for 3 weeks via intravenous infusion. In the CGA-treated group, areas under the curve (AUC) for blood glucose and plasma insulin improved (P<.005), and the protein and DNA concentrations in the liver increased (P<.05). No significant differences (P>.05) were found between groups for the hepatic G-6-PASE activity. The insulin receptor exon 11(+) and the exon 11(-) variants were expressed in the liver of Zucker (fa/fa) rats without significant changes (P>.05). Chlorogenic acid improved some cellular mechanisms that are stimulated by insulin. 相似文献

Effect of dietary Platycodon grandiflorum on the improvement of insulin resistance in obese Zucker rats 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The effect of dietary Platycodon grandiflorum on the improvement of insulin resistance and lipid profile was investigated in lean (Fa/-) and obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats, a model for noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus. Dietary Platycodon grandiflorum feeding for 4 weeks resulted in a significant decrease in the concentration of plasma triglyceride in both lean and obese Zucker rats. Furthermore, dietary Platycodon grandiflorum markedly decreased both plasma cholesterol and fasting plasma insulin levels, and significantly decreased the postprandial glucose level at 30 min during oral glucose tolerance test in obese Zucker rats. Although there was no statistical significance, the crude glucose transporter 4 protein level of obese rats fed Platycodon grandiflorum tended to increase when compared with that of obese control rats. Therefore, the present results suggested that dietary Platycodon grandiflorum may be useful in prevention and improvement of metabolic disorders characterized by hyperinsulinemia states such as noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus, syndrome X, and coronary artery disease. 相似文献

1. The effect of insulin (0.5, 10 and 50 munits/ml of perfusate) on glucose uptake and disposal in skeletal muscle was studied in the isolated perfused hindquarter of obese (fa/fa) and lean (Fa/Fa) Zucker rats and Osborne-Mendel rats. 2. A concentration of 0.5 munit of insulin/ml induced a significant increase in glucose uptake (approx. 2.5 mumol/min per 30 g of muscle) in lean Zucker rats and in Osborne-Mendel rats, and 10 munits of insulin/ml caused a further increase to approx. 6 mumol/min per 30 g of muscle; but 50 munits of insulin/ml had no additional stimulatory effect. In contrast, in obese Zucker rats only 10 and 50 munits of insulin/ml had a stimulatory effect on glucose uptake, the magnitude of which was decreased by 50-70% when compared with either lean control group. Since under no experimental condition tested was an accumulation of free glucose in muscle-cell water observed, the data suggest an impairment of insulin-stimulated glucose transport across the muscle-cell membrane in obese Zucker rats. 3. The intracellular disposal of glucose in skeletal muscle of obese Zucker rats was also insulin-insensitive: even at insulin concentrations that clearly stimulated glucose uptake, no effect of insulin on lactate oxidation (nor an inhibitory effect on alanine release) was observed; [14C]glucose incorporation into skeletal-muscle lipids was stimulated by 50 munits of insulin/ml, but the rate was still only 10% of that observed in lean Zucker rats. 4. The data indicate that the skeletal muscle of obese Zucker rats is insulin-resistant with respect to both glucose-transport mechanisms and intracellular pathways of glucose metabolism, such as lactate oxidation. The excessive degree of insulin-insensitivity in skeletal muscle of obese Zucker rats may represent a causal factor in the development of the glucose intolerance in this species. 相似文献

The male obese Wistar Diabetic Fatty (WDF) rat is a genetic model of obesity and non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM). The obese Zucker rat shares the same gene for obesity on a different genetic background but is not diabetic. This study evaluated the degree of insulin resistance in both obese strains by examining the binding and post binding effects of muscle insulin receptors in obese, rats exhibiting hyperinsulinemia and/or hyperglycemia. Insulin receptor binding and affinity and tyrosine kinase activity were measured in skeletal muscle from male WDF fa/fa (obese) and Fa/? (lean) and Zucker fa/fa (obese) and Fa/Fa (homozygous lean) rats. Rats were fed a high sucrose (68% of total Kcal) or Purina stock diet for 14 weeks. At 27 weeks of age, adipose depots were removed for adipose cellularity analysis and the biceps femoris muscle was removed for measurement of insulin binding and insulin-stimulated receptor kinase activity. Plasma glucose (13.9 vs. 8.4 mM) and insulin levels (14,754 vs. 7440 pmoI/L) were significantly higher in WDF obese than in Zucker obese rats. Insulin receptor number and affinity and TK activity were unaffected by diet. Insulin receptor number was significantly reduced in obese WDF rats (2.778 ± 0.617 pmol/mg protein), compared to obese Zucker rats (4.441 ± 0.913 pmol/mg potein). Both obese strains exhibited down regulation of the insulin receptor compared to their lean controls. Maximal tyrosine kinase (TK) activity was significantly reduced in obese WDF rats (505 ± 82 fmol/min/mg protein) compared to obese Zucker rats (1907 ± 610 fmol/min/mg protein). Only obese WDF rats displayed a decrease in TK activity per receptor. These observations establish the obese WDF rat as an excellent model for exploring mechanisms of extreme insulin resistance, particularly post-receptor tyrosine kinase-associated defects, in non-insulin dependent diabetes. 相似文献

Lean (Fa/?) and obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats were adrenalectomized (ADX) in order to assess the contribution of adrenal hormones to insulin resistance of the obese Zucker rat. Glucose utilization was measured using an insulin suppression test. Sham-operated obese rats gained almost twice as much weight as sham-operated lean littermates. However, body weight gain of ADX animals was comparable in both genotypes. It was significantly less than that of the respective sham-operated controls. Body weight differences can be accounted for almost entirely by a marked loss of adipose tissue. Although insulin resistance may be attributable to obesity in part, steroid hormones are thought to be directly antagonistic to insulin for glucose metabolism. Adrenalectomy resulted in a decrease in serum glucose concentrations for both lean and obese Zucker rats compared with their respective sham-operated groups. Serum insulin concentration of lean ADX rats was 23% of sham-operated controls; in obese ADX rats, it was 9% of controls. Elevated levels of steady state serum glucose (SSSG) levels in sham-operated obese rats demonstrate a marked resistance to insulin induced glucose uptake compared with sham-operated lean animals. Adrenalectomy caused a marked improvement in insulin sensitivity of obese rats. The hyperglycemic SSSG levels of the obese rats were reduced 2.5 times by ADX. These results indicate that insulin resistance of Zucker obese rats can be ameliorated by ADX, suggesting adrenal hormones contribute to insulin resistance in these animals. 相似文献

Hypothesizing that UCP2 may influence insulin
secretion by modifying the ATP/ADP ratio within
pancreatic islets, we have investigated the expression
of intraislet UCP2 gene in rats showing insulin
oversecretion (non-diabetic Zucker fa/fa obese rats,
glucose-infused Wistar rats) or insulin undersecretion
(fasting and mildly diabetic rats). We found that
in Zucker fa/fa obese rats, hyperinsulinemia
(1222 ± 98 pmol/1 vs. 128 ± 22 pmol/1 in lean Zucker
rats) was accompanied by a significant increase in
UCP2 mRNA levels. In rat submitted to a 5 day
infusion with glucose, hyperinsulinemia (1126 ± 101
pmol/l vs. 215 ± 25 pmol/1 in Wistar control rats),
coincided with an enhanced intraislet UCP2 gene
expression, whereas a 8h or a 2 day-infusion did not
induce significant changes in UCP2 mRNA expression.
In rats made hypoinsulinemic and mildly
diabetic by the injection of a low dose of streptozotocin,
and in 4-day-fasting rats (plasma insulin
28 ± 5 pmol/1) UCP2 gene expression was sharply
decreased. A 3-day-fast was ineffective. The data
show the existence of a time-dependent correlation
between islet mRNA UCP2 and insulin that may be
interpreted as an adaptative response to prolonged
insulin excess. 相似文献

Exercise training has been found to reduce the muscle insulin resistance of the obese Zucker rat (fa/fa). The purpose of the present study was to determine whether this reduction in muscle insulin resistance was associated with an improvement in the glucose transport process and if it was fiber-type specific. Rats were randomly assigned to a sedentary or training group. Training consisted of treadmill running at 18 m/min up an 8% grade, 1.5 h/day, 5 days/wk, for 6-8 wk. The rate of muscle glucose transport was assessed in the absence of insulin and in the presence of a physiological (0.15 mU/ml), a submaximal (1.50 mU/ml), and a maximal (15.0 mU/ml) insulin concentration by determining the rate of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (3-OMG) accumulation during hindlimb perfusion. The average 3-OMG transport rate of the red gastrocnemii (fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic fibers) was significantly higher in the trained compared with the sedentary obese rats in the absence of insulin and in the presence of the three insulin concentrations. Significant improvements in 3-OMG transport were also observed in the plantarii (mixed fibers) of trained obese rats in the presence of 0, 0.15, and 15.0 mU/ml insulin. Training appeared to have little effect on the insulin-stimulated 3-OMG transport of the soleus (slow-twitch oxidative fibers) or white gastrocnemius (fast-twitch glycolytic fibers). The results suggest that the improvement in the muscle insulin resistance of the obese Zucker rat after moderate endurance training was associated with an improvement in the glucose transport process but that it was fiber-type specific. 相似文献

The effects of vanadate administration on the plasma lipids and hepatic lipogenic enzymes were investigated in Zucker (fa/fa) rat, a model for obesity and non insulin-dependent diabetes. These animals were administered sodium orthovanadate through drinking water for a period of four months. The plasma levels of insulin, triacylglycerols and total cholesterol were significantly (p<0.001) elevated in untreated obese control rats as compared to the lean animals. In the livers of obese rats, the number of insulin receptors decreased by 60% and the activities of lipogenic enzymes acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP-citrate lyase increased by 4.7- and 5.6-folds, respectively. The messenger RNA for ATP-citrate lyase as measured by Northern blot analysis showed a parallel increase in obese control rats. Treatment of these rats with vanadate caused 56–77% decreases in the plasma levels of insulin, triacylglycerols and total cholesterol. The insulin receptor numbers in vanadate-treated obese rats increased (119%) compared to levels in untreated obese animals. The elevated activities of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and ATP-citrate lyase observed in livers of obese rats were significantly reduced by vanadate. The messenger RNA for ATP-citrate lyase also decreased in vanadate-treated obese rats back to the lean control levels. This study demonstrates that vanadate exerts potent actions on lipid metabolism in diabetic animals in addition to the recognized effects on glucose homeostasis. 相似文献

Increasing evidence supports a negative role of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) in regulation of skeletal muscle glucose transport. We assessed the effects of chronic treatment of insulin-resistant, prediabetic obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats with a highly selective GSK-3 inhibitor (CT118637) on glucose tolerance, whole body insulin sensitivity, plasma lipids, skeletal muscle insulin signaling, and in vitro skeletal muscle glucose transport activity. Obese Zucker rats were treated with either vehicle or CT118637 (30 mg/kg body wt) twice per day for 10 days. Fasting plasma insulin and free fatty acid levels were reduced by 14 and 23% (P < 0.05), respectively, in GSK-3 inhibitor-treated animals compared with vehicle-treated controls. The glucose response during an oral glucose tolerance test was reduced by 18% (P < 0.05), and whole body insulin sensitivity was increased by 28% (P < 0.05). In vivo insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) tyrosine phosphorylation (50%) and IRS-1-associated phosphatidylinositol-3' kinase (79%) relative to fasting plasma insulin levels were significantly elevated (P < 0.05) in plantaris muscles of GSK-3 inhibitor-treated animals. Whereas basal glucose transport in isolated soleus and epitrochlearis muscles was unaffected by chronic GSK-3 treatments, insulin stimulation of glucose transport above basal was significantly enhanced (32-60%, P < 0.05). In summary, chronic treatment of insulin-resistant, prediabetic obese Zucker rats with a specific GSK-3 inhibitor enhances oral glucose tolerance and whole body insulin sensitivity and is associated with an amelioration of dyslipidemia and an improvement in IRS-1-dependent insulin signaling in skeletal muscle. These results provide further evidence that selective targeting of GSK-3 in muscle may be an effective intervention for the treatment of obesity-associated insulin resistance. 相似文献

We have demonstrated previously that overactivity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is associated with whole body and skeletal muscle insulin resistance in obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats. Moreover, this obesity-associated insulin resistance is reduced by treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor (type 1) blockers. However, it is currently unknown whether specific inhibition of renin itself, the rate-limiting step in RAS functionality, improves insulin action in obesity-associated insulin resistance. Therefore, the present study assessed the effect of chronic, selective renin inhibition using aliskiren on glucose tolerance, whole body insulin sensitivity, and insulin action on the glucose transport system in skeletal muscle of obese Zucker rats. Obese Zucker rats were treated for 21 days with either vehicle or aliskiren (50 mg/kg body wt ip). Renin inhibition was associated with a significant lowering (10%, P < 0.05) of resting systolic blood pressure and induced reductions in fasting plasma glucose (11%) and free fatty acids (46%) and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (13%). Glucose tolerance (glucose area under the curve) and whole body insulin sensitivity (inverse of the glucose-insulin index) during an oral glucose tolerance test were improved by 15% and 16%, respectively, following chronic renin inhibition. Moreover, insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in isolated soleus muscle of renin inhibitor-treated animals was increased by 36% and was associated with a 2.2-fold greater Akt Ser(473) phosphorylation. These data provide evidence that chronic selective inhibition of renin activity leads to improvements in glucose tolerance and whole body insulin sensitivity in the insulin-resistant obese Zucker rat. Importantly, chronic renin inhibition is associated with upregulation of insulin action on skeletal muscle glucose transport, and it may involve improved Akt signaling. These data support the strategy of targeting the RAS to improve both blood pressure regulation and insulin action in conditions of insulin resistance. 相似文献

The release of somatostatin from the pancreas and stomach following the ingestion of a meal and its increase in the peripheral circulation elicits an attenuation of postprandial hormone secretion such as insulin, pancreatic polypeptide and gastrin and retards the rate at which nutrients enter the circulation. Reduced tissue somatostatin content and/or an attenuated somatostatin release is associated with hyperinsulinism and obesity in certain animal models. In the obese Zucker rat, however, tissue somatostatin levels are increased and therefore the present study was designed to determine the effect of synthetic somatostatin on basal and postprandial arterial insulin levels in obese and lean Zucker rats. Synthetic somatostatin was infused at doses of 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 5 ng/kg X min before and after the intragastric instillation of a liver extract/sucrose test meal. In the obese rats somatostatin at a dose of 5 ng/kg X min reduced basal plasma insulin levels significantly, whereas no effect of somatostatin was observed on basal insulin levels in the lean animals at all doses employed. The integrated postprandial insulin response was reduced during 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 5 ng/kg X min somatostatin in the obese animals, whereas only 0.5 ng/kg X min and higher doses had an inhibitory effect in the lean rats. The degree of inhibition in relation to the postprandial insulin response during saline infusions was 35-230% in the obese and 30-100% in the lean Zucker rats within the range of somatostatin infusions employed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We investigated a nonradioisotope method for the evaluation of glucose uptake activity using enzymatic measurement of 2-deoxyglucose 6-phosphate (2DG6P) content in isolated rat soleus muscle in vitro and in vivo. The 2DG6P content in isolated rat soleus muscle after incubation with 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) was increased in a dose-dependent manner by insulin (ED(50) = 0.6 mU/ml), the maximum response being about 5 times that of the basal content in vitro. This increment was completely abolished by wortmannin (100 nM), with no effect on basal 2DG6P content. An insulin-mimetic compound, vanadium, also increased 2DG6P content in a dose-dependent manner. In isolated soleus muscle of Zucker fa/fa rats, well known as an insulin-resistant model, insulin did not increase 2DG6P content. The 2DG6P content in rat soleus muscle increased after 2DG (3 mmol/kg) injection in vivo, and conversely, the 2DG concentration in plasma was decreased in a dose-dependent manner by insulin (ED(50) = 0.11 U/kg). The maximum response of the accumulation of 2DG6P in soleus muscle was about 4 times that of the basal content. This method could be useful for evaluating glucose uptake (transport plus phosphorylation) activity in soleus muscle in vitro and in vivo without using radioactive materials. 相似文献

We have recently demonstrated (Saengsirisuwan V, Kinnick TR, Schmit MB, and Henriksen EJ, J Appl Physiol 91: 145-153, 2001) that exercise training (ET) and the antioxidant R-(+)-alpha-lipoic acid (R-ALA) interact in an additive fashion to improve insulin action in insulin-resistant obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats. The purpose of the present study was to assess the interactions of ET and R-ALA on insulin action and oxidative stress in a model of normal insulin sensitivity, the lean Zucker (fa/-) rat. For 6 wk, animals either remained sedentary, received R-ALA (30 mg. kg body wt(-1). day(-1)), performed ET (treadmill running), or underwent both R-ALA treatment and ET. ET alone or in combination with R-ALA significantly increased (P < 0.05) peak oxygen consumption (28-31%) and maximum run time (52-63%). During an oral glucose tolerance test, ET alone or in combination with R-ALA resulted in a significant lowering of the glucose response (17-36%) at 15 min relative to R-ALA alone and of the insulin response (19-36%) at 15 min compared with sedentary controls. Insulin-mediated glucose transport activity was increased by ET alone in isolated epitrochlearis (30%) and soleus (50%) muscles, and this was associated with increased GLUT-4 protein levels. Insulin action was not improved by R-ALA alone, and ET-associated improvements in these variables were not further enhanced with combined ET and R-ALA. Although ET and R-ALA caused reductions in soleus protein carbonyls (an index of oxidative stress), these alterations were not significantly correlated with insulin-mediated soleus glucose transport. These results indicate that the beneficial interactive effects of ET and R-ALA on skeletal muscle insulin action observed previously in insulin-resistant obese Zucker rats are not apparent in insulin-sensitive lean Zucker rats. 相似文献

Inositol phosphoglycan molecules containing either D-chiro-inositol or myo-inositol have been isolated from various mammalian tissues and are putative mediators of insulin action. Urinary excretion of inositols appears to be altered in diabetes mellitus; however, the relationships with different types of diabetes are unclear. The objective of this study was to determine the urinary excretion of chiro- and myo-inositol in diabetic animal models, including streptozotocin (STZ) rats, db/db mice, and fa/fa Zucker rats. In STZ rats (type 1 diabetes), 12-hr urinary excretion of chiro-inositol was elevated 336-fold and myo-inositol excretion was elevated 47-fold compared with their nondiabetic counterparts. When corrected for creatinine, chiro-inositol excretion was 259-fold higher and myo-inositol excretion was 36-fold higher in STZ rats than in normal rats. The same pattern was observed in db/db mice (type 2 diabetes), where 12-hr urinary chiro-inositol excretion was elevated 247-fold compared with normal mice. When corrected for creatinine, chiro-inositol excretion was 2455-fold higher and urinary myo-inositol excretion was elevated 8.5-fold in db/db mice compared with normal mice. The fa/fa Zucker rats (impaired glucose tolerance) had a pattern of urinary inositol excretion that was similar to the nondiabetic animals (lean Zucker rats, C57BL/6 mice, and Sprague-Dawley rats). In summary, urinary chiro-inositol and myo-inositol excretion was elevated in animal models of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, concomitant with hyperglycemia and glucosuria. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of subdiaphragmatic vagal deafferentation (SDA) on food intake, body weight gain, and metabolism in obese (fa/fa) and lean (Fa/?) Zucker rats. Before and after recovery from surgery, food intake and body weight gain were recorded, and plasma glucose and insulin were measured in tail-prick blood samples. After implantation of a jugular vein catheter, an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) was performed, followed by minimal modeling to estimate the insulin sensitivity index. Food intake relative to metabolic body weight (g/kg(0.75)) and daily body weight gain after surgery were lower (P < 0.05) in SDA than in sham obese but not lean rats. Before surgery, plasma glucose and insulin concentrations were lower (P < 0.05) in lean than in obese rats but did not differ between surgical groups within both genotypes. Four weeks after surgery, plasma glucose and insulin were still similar in SDA and sham lean rats but lower (P < 0.05) in SDA than in sham obese rats. IVGTT revealed a downward shift of the plasma insulin profile by SDA in obese but not lean rats, whereas the plasma glucose profile was unaffected. SDA decreased (P < 0.05) area under the curve for insulin but not glucose in obese rats. The insulin sensitivity index was higher in lean than in obese rats but was not affected by SDA in both genotypes. These results suggest that elimination of vagal afferent signals from the upper gut reduces food intake and body weight gain without affecting the insulin sensitivity index measured by minimal modeling in obese Zucker rats. 相似文献

IntroductionObservational studies have reported fairly consistent inverse associations between coffee consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes, but this association has been little investigated with regard to lesser degrees of hyperglycemia and other alterations in glucose homeostasis. Additionally, the association between coffee consumption and diabetes has been rarely investigated in South American populations. We examined the cross-sectional relationships of coffee intake with newly diagnosed diabetes and measures of glucose homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, and insulin secretion, in a large Brazilian cohort of middle-aged and elderly individuals.MethodsWe used baseline data from 12,586 participants of the Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). Logistic regression analyses were performed to examine associations between coffee consumption and newly diagnosed diabetes. Analysis of covariance was used to assess coffee intake in relation to two-hour glucose from an oral glucose tolerance test, fasting glucose, glycated hemoglobin, fasting and –2-hour postload insulin and measures of insulin sensitivity.ResultsWe found an inverse association between coffee consumption and newly diagnosed diabetes, after adjusting for multiple covariates [23% and 26% lower odds of diabetes for those consuming coffee 2–3 and >3 times per day, respectively, compared to those reporting never or almost never consuming coffee, (p = .02)]. An inverse association was also found for 2-hour postload glucose [Never/almost never: 7.57 mmol/L, ≤1 time/day: 7.48 mmol/L, 2-3 times/day: 7.22 mmol/L, >3 times/day: 7.12 mol/L, p<0.0001] but not with fasting glucose concentrations (p = 0.07). Coffee was additionally associated with 2-hour postload insulin [Never/almost never: 287.2 pmol/L, ≤1 time/day: 280.1 pmol/L, 2–3 times/day: 275.3 pmol/L, >3 times/day: 262.2 pmol/L, p = 0.0005) but not with fasting insulin concentrations (p = .58).ConclusionOur present study provides further evidence of a protective effect of coffee on risk of adult-onset diabetes. This effect appears to act primarily, if not exclusively, through postprandial, as opposed to fasting, glucose homeostasis. 相似文献
