Lipid rafts (LRs) are dynamic, sterol- and sphingolipid-enriched nanodomains involved in the regulation of cellular functions and signal transduction, that upon stimuli, via (e.g. association of raft proteins and lipids), may cluster into domains of submicron or micron scale. Up to date, however, lipid raft clusters were observed only under artificially promoted conditions and their formation in vivo has not been confirmed. Using non-destructive approach involving Raman and Atomic Force Microscopy imaging we demonstrated the presence of clustered lipid rafts in endothelium of the aorta of the db/db mice that represent a reliable murine model of type 2 diabetes. The raft clusters in the aorta of diabetic mice were shown to occupy a considerably larger (about 10-fold) area of endothelial cells surface as compared to the control. Observation of pathology-promoted LRs confirms that the cellular increase of lipid content results in clustering of LRs. Clustering of LRs leads to the formation of assemblies with diameters up to 3 micrometers and increased lipid character. This massive clustering of lipid rafts in diabetes may trigger a signaling cascade leading to vascular inflammation. 相似文献

Objective: Progressive β-cell dysfunction and loss of β-cell mass are fundamental pathogenic features of type 2 diabetes. To examine if anti-diabetic reagents, such as insulin, pioglitazone (pio), and alogliptin (alo), have protective effects on β-cell mass and function in vivo, we treated obese diabetic db/db mice with these reagents. Methods: Male db/db mice were treated with a chow including pio, alo, or both of them from 8 to 16 weeks of age. Insulin glargine (gla) was daily injected subcutaneously during the same period. Results: At 16 weeks of age, untreated db/db mice revealed marked increase of HbA1c level, whereas those treated with pio, pio + alo, or insulin revealed the almost same HbA1c levels as non-diabetic db/m mice. Islet mass evaluated by direct counting in the whole pancreas and insulin content in isolated islets were preserved in pio, pio + alo and gla groups compared with untreated or alo groups, and there was no difference among pio, pio + alo and gla groups. To precisely evaluate islet β-cell functions, islet perifusion analysis was performed. In pio, pio + alo and gla groups, biphasic insulin secretion was preserved compared with untreated or alo groups. In particular, pio + alo as well as gla therapy preserved almost normal insulin secretion, although pio therapy improved partially. To examine the mechanism how these reagents exerted beneficial effects on β-cells, we evaluated expression levels of various factors which are potentially important for β-cell functions by real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. The results showed that expression levels of MafA and GLP-1 receptor were markedly decreased in untreated and alo groups, but not in pio, pio + alo and gla groups. Conclusion: Combination therapy with pio and alo almost completely normalized β-cell functions in vivo, which was comparable with gla treatment. 相似文献

Insulin granule trafficking is a key step in the secretion of glucose-stimulated insulin from pancreatic β-cells. The main feature of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the failure of pancreatic β-cells to secrete sufficient amounts of insulin to maintain normal blood glucose levels. In this work, we developed and applied tomography based on scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) to image intact insulin granules in the β-cells of mouse pancreatic islets. Using three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction, we found decreases in both the number and the grey level of insulin granules in db/db mouse pancreatic β-cells. Moreover, insulin granules were closer to the plasma membrane in diabetic β-cells than in control cells. Thus, 3D ultra-structural tomography may provide new insights into the pathology of insulin secretion in T2D. 相似文献

The NF-κB pathway plays an important role in chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Recently, NF-κB has also been suggested as an important mechanism linking obesity, inflammation, and metabolic disorders. However, there is no current evidence regarding the mechanism of action of NF-κB inhibition in insulin resistance and diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetic animal models. We investigated the effects of the NF-κB inhibitor celastrol in db/db mice. The treatment with celastrol for 2 months significantly lowered fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbA1C and homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA-IR) levels. Celastrol also exhibited significant decreases in body weight, kidney/body weight and adiposity. Celastrol reduced insulin resistance and lipid abnormalities and led to higher plasma adiponectin levels. Celastrol treatment also significantly mitigated lipid accumulation and oxidative stress in organs including the kidney, liver and adipose tissue. The treated group also exhibited significantly lower creatinine levels and urinary albumin excretion was markedly reduced. Celastrol treatment significantly lowered mesangial expansion and suppressed type IV collagen, PAI-1 and TGFβ1 expressions in renal tissues. Celastrol also improved abnormal lipid metabolism, oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokine activity in the kidney. In cultured podocytes, celastrol treatment abolished saturated fatty acid-induced proinflammatory cytokine synthesis. Taken together, celastrol treatment not only improved insulin resistance, glycemic control and oxidative stress, but also improved renal functional and structural changes through both metabolic and anti-inflammatory effects in the kidney. These results suggest that targeted therapy for NF-κB may be a useful new therapeutic approach for the management of type II diabetes and diabetic nephropathy. 相似文献

非酒精性脂肪性肝病(nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD)是指肝中储存过多的脂肪,与肥胖、胰岛素抵抗、2型糖尿病(type-2 diabetes mellitus, T2DM)、血脂异常等代谢综合征密切相关。肝纤维化是NAFLD进一步发展为肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC)的关键过程,减少肝内的脂肪积累,从而延缓或阻止NAFLD向纤维化的进展是治疗的关键。树豆酮酸A(cajanonic acid A, CAA)在2型糖尿病中能够有效改善胰岛素抵抗,发挥降糖减脂作用。本研究旨在探究CAA对NAFLD肝损伤的保护作用。通过采用db/db自发性NAFLD小鼠模型,将db/db小鼠分为NAFLD组和CAA给药组,CAA组予50 mg/(kg·d)灌胃给药,同期C57BL小鼠作为正常对照组(NC组),每组6只。小鼠生化指标检测和组织病理染色发现,CAA干预可有效缓解db/db小鼠的糖脂代谢紊乱、肝功能损伤(P<0.05)及肝脂肪变性和减少脂质沉积(P<0.05)。ELISA法结果显示,经过CAA治疗后肝组织... 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptor 40 (GPR40) mediates both acute and chronic effects of free fatty acids (FFAs) on insulin secretion. However, it remains controversial whether inhibition of GPR40 would be beneficial in prevention of type 2 diabetes. This study is designed to evaluate the potential effects of DC260126, a small molecule antagonist of GPR40, on β-cell function following administration of 10 mg/kg dose of DC260126 to obese diabetic db/db mice. Oral glucose tolerance test, glucose stimulated insulin secretion and insulin tolerance test were used to investigate the pharmacological effects of DC260126 on db/db mice after 21-days treatment. Immunohistochemistry and serum biochemical analysis were also performed in this study. Although no significant change of blood glucose levels was found in DC260126-treated mice, DC260126 significantly inhibited glucose stimulated insulin secretion, reduced blood insulin level and improved insulin sensitivity after 3 weeks administration in db/db mice. Moreover, DC260126 reduced the proinsulin/insulin ratio and the apoptotic rate of pancreatic β-cells remarkably in DC260126-treated db/db mice compared to vehicle-treated mice (p<0.05, n = 8). The results suggest that although DC260126 could not provide benefit for improving hyperglycemia, it could protect against pancreatic β-cells dysfunction through reducing overload of β-cells, and it increases insulin sensitivity possibly via alleviation of hyperinsulinemia in db/db mice. 相似文献

Summary We have recently demonstrated that the activity of liver glycogen phosphorylase, the rate-limiting enzyme of glycogenolysis, is elevated in genetically diabetic (db/db) mouse and that it is primarily due to the presence of increased amounts of this enzyme. In the present study, we examined the turnover of glycogen phosphorylase in vivo in order to elucidate the mechanism for this specific increase. The rate of phosphorylase synthesis was slightly decreased in the diabetic mouse compared to controls. However, the relative rates of synthesis were similar in these two groups. The rate of degradation of this enzyme was decreased 20% (p<0.05) in the diabetic mouse compared to controls. More importantly, the relative rate of degradation of phosphorylase was found to be lower in the diabetic animals. This indicates that the elevated concentration of phosphorylase in the liver of the db/db mouse is likely due to a specific decrease in its rate of degradation. 相似文献
