Diabetic Neuropathy in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Rat
To aid in the study of diabetes and its complications, many diabetic animal models have been reported. Although most diabetic patients suffer type 2 diabetes, studies using type 2 diabetic animal models have been carried out less frequently. Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rat, a non-obese type 2 diabetes model, shows neuropathies and severe ocular complications. Decreased nerve conduction v...
متن کاملGenetics of the Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Rat
The Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rat has recently been established as a novel model of nonobese type 2 diabetes. SDT rats exhibit inflammation and fibrosis in and around the islets during development of the disease. To clarify the genetic basis of the disease, we previously performed quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of glucose tolerance at 20 weeks of age using backcrossed progeny ...
متن کاملGlucose and Lipid Metabolism in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Rat
The impairment of glucose metabolism may lead to type 2 diabetes and the malfunction of lipid metabolism contributing to metabolic syndrome, which increases risk of heart disease, vascular disease, and type 2 diabetes. Our previous study provided evidence for involvement of hepatic glucose metabolic disorder in onset and progress of diabetes in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rats. As it is ...
متن کاملEstablishment and Clinical Features in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Rat
The Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rat is a spontaneous animal model of non-obese Type 2 diabetes (T2D) resembling those of humans, established in 1997. I investigated the clinical features of the SDT rats. The time of onset of glucosuria was different between male and female SDT rats; glucosuria appeared at approximately 20 weeks of age in male rats and at approximately 45 weeks of age in ...
متن کاملPathophysiological Characteristics of Diabetic Ocular Complications in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Rat
The Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rat, a nonobese type 2 diabetes model, develops severe diabetic retinopathy as result of chronic severe hyperglycemia. Although existing diabetes animal models also develop ocular complications, severe retinal lesions frequently observed in human diabetes patients such as preretinal neovascularization or retinal detachment are not found. Distinctive featur...
