Male and female rats received daily intraperitoneal injections of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; 2 or 4 g/kg) or saline for 28 days. At the end of that time, the ability of the animals' kidneys to transport p-aminohippurate (PAH) and N-methylnicotinamide (NMN) was tested in an in vitro system.Both doses of DMSO used produced measurable toxicity of a general nature: There was some mortality, and growth of the animals was retarded. However, DMSO had no detectable nephrotoxic action. Terminal serum urea and creatinine concentrations were normal in all treatment groups, and there was no effect of DMSO on the uptake of PAH or NMN by renal cortical slices. The data suggest that DMSO does not have an important specific toxic effect on the kidneys in this species. 相似文献

Extrahepatic fatty acid synthesis from a 250 mg meal of [U-(14)C]-glucose was measured in epidymal fat pads and the remaining carcass of hyperglycemic obese (obob), gold thioglucose obese, and nonobese controls under conditions of maximum and minimum lipogenesis. Also assessed was the effect of Delta(22)-5beta-taurocholenic acid, previously shown to inhibit hepatic fatty acid synthesis. Both types of obese and nonobese mice were fed for 6 weeks glucose-based diets containing either 1% corn oil or 40% lard with or without the addition of 0.05% taurocholenic acid. In mice fed 1% corn oil, incorporation of labeled glucose into carcass fatty acids was 25% greater in nonobese than obese mice of either type of obesity. On this diet incorporation of labeled glucose into epididymal fatty acids was reduced 83% in hyperglycemic obese mice compared with nonobese littermates. The corresponding reduction in lipogenesis in gold thioglucose obese mice was only 23% compared with nonobese controls. Feeding 40% lard reduced incorporation of labeled glucose into epididymal and carcass fatty acid 67 to 95% compared with mice fed 1% corn oil in both types of obese and nonobese mice whether or not taurocholenic acid had been fed. Both types of obesity or feeding 40% lard reduced lipogenesis in fat pads to a greater extent than glucose uptake by the pads with the reductions additive. Feeding taurocholenic acid reduced pad weight 30% across strain and obesity status, increased uptake of labeled glucose into epididymal fat pads and increased the percentage of the labeled glucose in the pad recovered as fatty acid in both types of obese and nonobese mice when the diet was 1% corn oil. Similarities and differences between the two obesity models are discussed. 相似文献

A perturbation of zinc metabolism has been noted in numerous laboratory animals with diabetes and obesity. The effects of zinc supplementation on body fat deposition in two types of experimental obese mice: genetically obese (ob/ob) mice and high-fat diet-induced ICR obese (HF) mice were investigated in this study. Their lean controls were +/? mice, and ICR on basal diet, respectively. The mice in the zinc-supplemented groups were administered 200 mg/kg zinc in their diets for 6 wk. Both the ob/ob mice and the HF mice, that were fed a diet containing a marginal zinc dosage (4–6 mg/kg), had lower zinc levels in their serum and carcass, and higher body fat content than their respective lean controls (p<0.01). After zinc supplementation, ob/ob mice and the HF mice significnatly (p<0.05) increased their body fat by 49.4% and 18.9%, respectively. This study revealed that body fat deposition can be aggravated by zinc supplementation in both types of obese mice. Zinc may be associated with the energy homeostasis of obesity, via its interaction with dietary fat consumption. 相似文献

Subcutaneous fat cells were isolated from genetically obese rats and from rats with obesity produced by hypothalamic lesions. Insulin did not augment the oxidation of fatty acids or their synthesis from glucose-1-(14)C or glucose-1-(3)H by fat cells from either group. Radioactivity from pyruvate-3-(14)C was incorporated into fatty acids to the same degree by fat cells from these two groups. The presence of 5 mm glucose in the incubation medium containing fat cells and pyruvate-3-(14)C or aspartate-3-(14)C stimulated the synthesis of fatty acids to a greater extent in cells of genetically obese rats. Fasting, in contrast, reduced the incorporation of radioactivity from pyruvate and glucose into fatty acids by fat cells from the genetically obese animals. In all experiments the fat cells from genetically obese rats converted more radioactivity into glyceride-glycerol relative to CO(2) than did fat cells from hypothalamic obese rats. Parabiosis between one thin and one genetically obese litter mate was performed in three pairs of rats without influencing growth of either rat. Thus in the present studies fat cells from genetically obese rats showed two differences from normal fat cells: they channeled more radioactivity from pyruvate into fatty acids in the presence of glucose, and they uniformly converted more radioactivity into glyceride-glycerol. 相似文献

The accumulation of p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) and cyclopenthiazide, two drugs of acidic character and extremely different physico-chemical properties, was determined in renal cortical slices of rats aged 5, 15, 33, 55, 105, and 240 days. PAH is accumulated in the cortical slices of 5- and 15-day-old animals to a lesser extent than in those of adult rats. Cyclopenthiazide is accumulated in much higher amounts than PAH in all age groups. The age dependence of cyclopenthiazide accumulation is not so pronounced as with PAH accumulation. There is no accumulation of PAH in the cortical slices of all age groups through active tubular transport, when the energy supply is inhibited by means of 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) or nitrogen 2 times bubbling (i.e. anaerobic incubation). By subsequent addition of DNP to the incubation medium or subsequent N2 atmosphere bubbling, an already existing PAH accumulation may be completely nullified. Contrary to PAH accumulation, cyclopenthiazide accumulation can be neither prevented nor abolished by inhibiting the energy supply. 相似文献

Renal tubular transport of delta-aminolevulinic acid in rat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

delta-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) interferes with cell membrane and metabolic functions in a variety of tissues. To determine if ALA interacts with renal tubular transport functions, we examined concentrative transport of this heme precursor in rat kidneys. ALA was accumulated against a concentration gradient in rat renal cortical slices. Section freeze-dry autoradiography demonstrated selective accumulation in cells of proximal tubules. Concentrative uptake of ALA was inhibited by KCN, probenecid and p-aminohippurate (PAH). ALA inhibited slice uptake of PAH but failed to block slice accumulation of galactose, cycloleucine, lysine, glycine, proline, or alpha-aminoisobutyric acid and did not alter O2 utilization. Massive intraperitoneal injection of ALA did not increase 24 hr fractional excretion of amino acids in vivo. Concentrative transport of ALA in proximal tubules does not lead to generalized renal tubular transport defects but ALA appears to share the organic acid secretory system in rat kidney. 相似文献

Renal tubular transport of p-aminohippurate (PAH) is immature at birth. Repeated saturation of transport sites by treatment with various organic anions is without any influence on the postnatal development of kidney transport capacity. Hormonal regulation of postnatal maturation of PAH transport must therefore be taken into consideration. It was tried to stimulate immature PAH transport by treating rats of different ages with thyroid hormones, corticosteroids or testosterone, respectively. In rats with immature kidney function, renal PAH excretion can be stimulated by daily treatment with thyroid hormones. Experiments on renal cortical slices have shown that PAH excretion is preferentially stimulated by an increase of transport capacity. Whereas thyroid hormones stimulate the renal excretion of PAH both in young and in adult rats, dexamethasone treatment is more effective in rats with immature kidney function. Dexamethasone treatment is without any influence on PAH accumulation in renal cortical slices. Kidney weight and the protein content of kidney tissue was increased after dexamethasone treatment. Repeated testosterone administration did not stimulate the PAH transport in rats of different ages. The data have demonstrated the influence of thyroid hormones or of dexamethasone on renal tubular transport processes in rats with immature kidney function. Treatment with such hormones could be useful in the management of renal insufficiency in full-term and pre-term neonates with immature kidney function. 相似文献

The effects of cadmium-metallothionein (Cd-MT) on organic ion uptake in renal cortical slices and lipid peroxidation in the kidney were studied in rats. For in vitro studies, slices were prepared from kidneys of control animals and incubated in buffer containing either cadmium chloride (CdCl2) or Cd-MT in equimolar Cd concentrations ranging from 5 × 10?6 to 2 × 10?4 M. Uptake into the slices of the organic anion p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) was found to be inhibited by both forms of Cd in a dose-dependent manner. Although this inhibition was slightly greater in the presence of Cd-MT, accumulation of Cd into the slices was approximately 12 times greater with CdCl2 than Cd-MT. Tetraethylammonium (TEA) uptake was less sensitive to the inhibitory effects of both CdCl2 and Cd-MT, although a dose-dependent inhibition did occur with higher Cd concentrations. To study the in vivo effects of Cd-MT on transport function and lipid peroxidation in the kidney, rats were injected with Cd-MT (0.3 mg Cd per kilogram body weight [bw]) and sacrificed at specific time intervals. Similar to the in vitro studies, PAH uptake into the renal cortical slices was markedly inhibited within 12 hours after Cd-MT injection whereas inhibition of TEA uptake was less and not observed until 48 hours after injection. Only a small increase (1.4-fold) in lipid peroxidation, as measured by generation of malondialdehyde (MDA), in the kidney was detected at four hours postinjection, and no further increase was observed at later time periods. The results suggest that Cd-MT affects the transport of organic anions and cations during its renal uptake but that lipid peroxidation may play only a minor role in Cd-MT-induced renal toxicity. 相似文献

The active form (PDHa) and total activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) were measured in homogenates from heart muscle, epididymal fat pads and liver of genetically obese hyperglycemic mice and compared with similar data derived from lean controls or Swiss albino mice. Both PDHa and total PDH activities were similar in heart muscle from all mice with a precipitous decrease in the PDHa upon fasting. Adipose tissue and liver of obese mice had a PDHa level that was almost two-fold higher than either lean control or Swiss albino mice. Fasting for 24 hours decreased the elevated activity of PDHa in adipose tissue and liver in obese mice to a value that was comparable to lean control or Swiss albino mice, fasted similarly. The elevation in both the active form and total activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase in livers from obese mice could explain the increased provision of acetyl-CoA units necessary for the accelerated hepatic lipogenesis observed with this mouse, a model for human obesity and insulin resistance. 相似文献

Effect of piperonyl butoxide on organic anion and cation transport in rabbit kidneys 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Piperonyl butoxide has been shown to reduce accumulation of cephaloridine in rabbit renal cortex; however, the mechanism responsible for this effect remains unclear. Cephaloridine is a zwitterion and its accumulation in renal cortex has been suggested to be regulated by both organic anion and cation transport systems. Thus, it was of interest to determine the effect of piperonyl butoxide on renal transport of p-aminohippurate (PAH, an organic anion) and tetraethylammonium (TEA, an organic cation). Although pretreatment with piperonyl butoxide markedly inhibited renal cortical uptake of cephaloridine, the same treatment had less inhibitory effect on either PAH or TEA uptake. Efflux of PAH from preloaded renal cortical slices was enhanced by pretreatment with piperonyl butoxide; however, TEA efflux was unaffected. Thus, piperonyl butoxide appears to have effects on renal membrane functions which result in differential effects on PAH, TEA, and cephaloridine transport. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to measure cardiovascular and renal function, including the renal transport capacity for glucose, in male and female C57BL/6J mice with diet-induced Type II diabetes mellitus. Typical of Type II diabetes, mice fed a high-fat, high-simple carbohydrate diet for 3 months were obese (45-65 g), hyperglycemic (138-259 mg%), and hyperinsulinemic (1.8-15.06 ng/ml); significant gender differences were observed in all cases. Based on systolic pressure measurements in conscious mice and arterial blood pressure measurements in anesthetized mice, no diet-induced hypertension was observed in either male or female mice. Urine flow rate, sodium, potassium, osmolar, and protein excretion rates were significantly increased (P < 0.05) in male mice fed the high-fat, high-simple carbohydrate diet compared with female mice fed the same diet. However, no differences in the excretion variables existed between male and female mice fed the control diet. The glomerular filtration rate (ml min-1 g kw-1), determined by FITC-inulin, in male and female mice fed the control diet (0.87 +/- 0.01 and 0.90 +/- 0.1, respectively) and high-fat, high-simple carbohydrate diet (0.96 +/- 0.1 and 0.93 +/- 0.2, respectively) was not different between the groups. These hyperglycemic mice were also not glucosuric. Infusions of progressive amounts of glucose in male mice fed either diet for 3 or 6 months demonstrated that the renal threshold for glucose was 400 mg% for all these mice, well above the fasting plasma glucose concentrations observed in this study. Thus, C57BL/6J mice were valuable tools for studying diet-induced obesity, hyperglycemia, and hyperinsulinemia; however, no hypertension or kidney dysfunction was apparent within the time frame of the current study. 相似文献

Aims/Hypothesis
Visceral obesity holds a central position in the concept of the metabolic syndrome characterized by glucose intolerance in humans. However, until now it is unclear if obesity by itself is responsible for the development of glucose intolerance.Methods
We have used a novel polygenic mouse model characterized by genetically fixed obesity (DU6) and addressed age- and high fat diet-dependent glucose tolerance.Results
Phenotype selection over 146 generations increased body weight by about 2.7-fold in male 12-week DU6 mice (P<0.0001) if compared to unselected controls (Fzt:DU). Absolute epididymal fat mass was particularly responsive to weight selection and increased by more than 5-fold (P<0.0001) in male DU6 mice. At an age of 6 weeks DU6 mice consumed about twice as much food if compared to unselected controls (P<0.001). Absolute food consumption was higher at all time points measured in DU6 mice than in Fzt:DU mice. Between 6 and 12 weeks of age, absolute food intake was reduced by 15% in DU6 mice (P<0.001) but not in Fzt:DU mice. In both mouse lines feeding of the high fat diet elevated body mass if compared to the control diet (P<0.05). In contrast to controls, DU6 mice did not display high fat diet-induced increases of epididymal and renal fat. Control mice progressively developed glucose intolerance with advancing age and even more in response to the high fat diet. In contrast, obese DU6 mice did neither develop a glucose intolerant phenotype with progressive age nor when challenged with a high fat diet.Conclusions/Interpretation
Our results from a polygenic mouse model demonstrate that genetically pre-determined and life-long obesity is no precondition of glucose intolerance later in life. 相似文献14.

Sucrose polyester, a fat substitute, has shown promise in reducing blood cholesterol and body weight of obese individuals. Effects of this compound in the Zucker rat, a genetic model of obesity, are unknown. Thus, we examined food intake, body weight, body composition, and several metabolic parameters in sera of lean and obese female Zucker rats. Eight-week-old lean and obese animals were given a choice between a control diet (15% corn oil) and fat substitute diet (5% corn oil and 10% sucrose polyester) for 2 days. Next, one-half of the lean and obese groups received control diet; the remaining lean and obese rats received fat substitute diet for 18 days. Cumulative food intake was depressed in fat substitute groups relative to control-fed animals; however, this effect was more predominant in obese animals. Obese rats consuming fat substitute diet (O-FS) gained less weight as compared to obese control-fed animals (O-C). Lean rats given fat substitute (L-FS) did not have significantly different body weights as compared to the L-C group. Fat substitute groups, combined, had lower body fat and higher body water as compared to controls. The O-FS group had lower serum glucose and insulin and higher fatty acid levels compared to the O-C group. There were no differences in serum cholesterol, HDL, or triglyceride levels due to fat substitute diet. These data suggest that the obese Zucker rat is unable to defend its body weight when dietary fat is replaced with sucrose polyester. 相似文献

Effects of fasting-refeeding regimens were studied in genetically obese hyperglycemic mice and their thin littermates to ascertain the possible existence of a differential response. Animals were killed after a 48-hr fast followed by 24, 48, and 72 hr of refeeding with laboratory pellets plus either 15% glucose or 15% glycerol in the drinking water. In addition, obese mice were fasted 96 hr followed by 144 hr of refeeding. In adipose tissue of fasted-refed thin mice, activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49), malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40), alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8), lactic dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), and also glycogen content were increased over control values. In fasted-refed obese mice, neither significant changes in the activities of these enzymes nor glycogen content were observed. In alloxan-treated thin mice, adipose tissue glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was decreased, while in identically treated obese animals, only alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity was increased. The concept that an impaired “adaptive enzyme” response is a significant aspect of the obese state is suggested by these data. 相似文献

A new strain of genetically obese rat recently obtained in our laboratory exhibits endogenous hyperlipidemia (marked hypertriglyceridemia and moderate hypercholesterolemia) and spontaneous hypertension. The animals die prematurely from kidney failure or from the complications of atherosclerosis. A low calorie diet proved to be highly beneficial to these rats. Body weight declined, obesity diminished, the hypertriglyceridemia was almost eliminated, and the hypercholesterolemia was reduced. However, the hypertensive state was not alleviated. Since the life span of the rats was greatly prolonged by a low calorie diet, the latter undoubtedly served to prevent or arrest the development of renal and vascular disease in these obese animals. 相似文献

1. Accumulation of uric acid and PAH was measured in renal cortical slices of various mammalian species. 2. The slice to medium ratio of uric acid was above unity in the rabbit, guinea pig, pig and cow, suggesting an active accumulation of uric acid, while it was near or below unity in the rat and mongrel dog. 3. Uric acid uptake in the rabbit, guinea pig and cow was significantly inhibited by PAH. 4. Uric acid was a potent inhibitor of PAH uptake in the rabbit, guinea pig, dog and pig, but much less potent in the rat and cow. 5. Kinetic analysis showed that uric acid inhibited PAH uptake in a competitive manner in all species studied except for the cow showing a noncompetitive type. 6. These results indicate that uric acid and PAH share a common transport mechanism at the basolateral membrane of the rabbit, guinea pig and pig. 相似文献

Leptin regulates body weight by signaling to the brain the availability of energy stored as fat. This negative feedback loop becomes disrupted in most obese individuals, resulting in a state known as leptin resistance. The physiological causes of leptin resistance remain poorly understood. Here we test the hypothesis that hyperleptinemia is required for the development of leptin resistance in diet-induced obese mice. We show that mice whose plasma leptin has been clamped to lean levels develop obesity in response to a high-fat diet, and the magnitude of this obesity is indistinguishable from wild-type controls. Yet these obese animals with constant low levels of plasma leptin remain highly sensitive to exogenous leptin even after long-term exposure to a high fat diet. This shows that dietary fats alone are insufficient to block the response to leptin. The data also suggest that hyperleptinemia itself can contribute to leptin resistance by downregulating cellular response to leptin as has been shown for other hormones. 相似文献

Measurements were made of cytochrome c oxidase activity and the GDP-binding capacity of mitochondria in brown adipose tissue of genetically obese mice and wild-type siblings, to estimate the thermogenic capacity of the tissue. The binding capacity was decreased in ad libitum fed obese animals compared with wild-type animals. Limited feeding of obese animals to restrict their body weight caused a large increase in the binding capacity of the tissue, which was greater than that in wild-type animals fed either ad limitum or on a limited diet. The decreased binding capacity of brown adipose tissue mitochondria in obese mice appears to be a consequence of ad libitum feeding and therefore not a cause of the obesity. Limit feeding of obese animals also corrected their characteristic hypothermia at low ambient temperature. The large increase in the thermogenic capacity of brown adipose tissue in obese animals, induced by limited feeding, may account for the vital improvement of their thermoregulation. However, close similarities were found between obesity hypothermia and hypothermia induced in wild-type animals by restraint. It is suggested that changes in posture caused by obesity, resulting in increased loss of body heat, may be important in the development of obesity hypothermia. Obese animals fed less than wild-type grained more weight than wild-type animals, indicating that the high thermogenic capacity of their brown adipose tissue did not function to regulate their calorie intake. 相似文献

Dietary-induced hypertrophic--hyperplastic obesity in mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Metabolically intact NMRI mice and genetically obese NZO mice were fed ad lib. either a high-carbohydrate diet (standard) or a high-fat diet for a period of about 11 (NMRI mice) or 38 (NZO mice) wk. In both strains of mice, body weight increased more in the groups fed the high-fat diet. However, caloric intake by NMRI mice fed the high-fat diet was less than that of the controls. In NMRI mice fed the high-fat diet, epididymal and subcutaneous fat cell volumes increased; when these mice were fed the standard diet, only epididymal fat cell volume increased. Epididymal and subcutaneous fat cell numbers increased only in the group fed the high-fat diet. In NMRI mice fed either diet, the postprandial blood glucose was lower in older animals, but plasma insulin remained unchanged. The glucose tolerance deteriorated insignificantly. In NZO mice fed either diet, epididymal fat cell volumes and fat cell numbers increased. In this strain of mice the postprandial blood glucose and plasma insulin exhibited the strain-specific pattern, independent of the diet. In older animals fed either diet the glucose tolerance decreased. 相似文献
