Abstract:The availability of the Goto-Kakisaki (GK) rat model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus prompted us to test the effect of a limited period of undernutrition in previously diabetic young rats on their insulin secretion and insulin action during adult age. Four-week-old female GK rats were either food restricted (35% restriction, 15% protein diet) or protein and energy restricted (35% restriction, 5% protein diet) for 4 wk. Food restriction in the young GK rat lowered weight gain but did not aggravate basal hyperglycemia or glucose intolerance, despite a decrease in basal plasma insulin level. Furthermore, the insulin-mediated glucose uptake by peripheral tissues in the GK rat was clearly improved. We also found that food restriction, when it is coupled to overt protein deficiency in the young GK rat, altered weight gain more severely and slightly decreased basal hyperglycemia but conversely aggravated glucose tolerance. Improvement of basal hyperglycemia was related to repression of basal hepatic glucose hyperproduction, despite profound attenuation of basal plasma insulin level. Deterioration of tolerance to glucose was related to severe blunting of the residual glucose-induced insulin secretion. It is, however, likely that the important enhancement of the insulin-mediated glucose uptake helped to limit the deterioration of glucose tolerance.
