Ca2+–Secretion Coupling Is Impaired in Diabetic Goto Kakizaki rats
The Goto Kakizaki (GK) rat is a widely used animal model to study defective glucose-stimulated insulin release in type-2 diabetes (T2D). As in T2D patients, the expression of several proteins involved in Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of insulin-containing large dense-core vesicles is dysregulated in this model. So far, a defect in late steps of insulin secretion could not be demonstrated. To reso...
متن کاملImpaired insulin-mediated vasorelaxation in diabetic Goto-Kakizaki rats is caused by impaired Akt phosphorylation.
Insulin resistance associated with Type 2 diabetes contributes to impaired vasorelaxation. Previously, we showed the phosphorylation of myosin-bound phosphatase substrate MYPT1, a marker of the vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) contraction, was negatively regulated by Akt (protein kinase B) phosphorylation in response to insulin stimulation. In this study we examined the role of Akt phosphoryl...
متن کاملDuodenal-jejunal bypass and jejunectomy improve insulin sensitivity in Goto-Kakizaki diabetic rats without changes in incretins or insulin secretion.
Gastric bypass surgery can dramatically improve type 2 diabetes. It has been hypothesized that by excluding duodenum and jejunum from nutrient transit, this procedure may reduce putative signals from the proximal intestine that negatively influence insulin sensitivity (SI). To test this hypothesis, resection or bypass of different intestinal segments were performed in diabetic Goto-Kakizaki and...
متن کاملPulmonary tuberculosis in spontaneously diabetic goto kakizaki rats.
As a clinical association is thought to exist between diabetes and tuberculosis, this study was set up to examine whether GK/Jcl diabetic rats are more susceptible to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection than non-diabetic rats. GK/Jcl diabetic rats were infected aerially with M. tuberculosis and their capacity to control mycobacterial growth, granuloma formation, cytokine secretion by alveolar ...
متن کاملAmaranthus caudatus Stimulates Insulin Secretion in Goto-Kakizaki Rats, a Model of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2
Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 prevalence is increasing worldwide; thus efforts to develop novel therapeutic strategies are required. Amaranthus caudatus (AC) is a pseudo-cereal with reported anti-diabetic effects that is usually consumed in food preparations in Bolivia. This study evaluated the anti-diabetic nutraceutical property of an AC hydroethanolic extract that contains mainly sugars and trace...
