The model of type 2 diabetes was prepared by feeding high fat diet and injecting low dosage of streptozotocin (STZ). The diabetic rats were screened out by oral glucose tolerance test. One group of type 2 diabetic rats received rosiglitazone. The serum adiponectin concentration was detected by using ELISA and mRNA levels were examined by RT-PCR. The serum adiponectin levels and mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue of type 2 diabetic rats were significantly decreased as compared with the normal control rats (P<0.05, P<0.01 respectively). No siglificant changes were observed in the expression of adiponectin receptor 1 in the skeletal muscle of type 2 diabetic rats. The mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue were reversely correlated with serum insulin (r=-0.66, P<0.05), triglyceride (r=-0.58, P<0.05), cholesterol (r=-0.49, P<0.05), interleukin-6 (r=-0.49, P<0.05) and tumor necrosis factor (r=-0.43, P<0.05). The expression of adiponectin receptors was not altered in the skeletal muscle of Type 2 diabetic rats. The decreased serum adiponectin was caused by the decreased expression of adiponectin mRNA in adipose tissue rather than the adiponectin receptors in the skeletal muscle, which could be improved by rosiglitazone.展开更多

Glucose,urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), urine acid (UA), N-acetyl-β2-D-glucosaminidase(NAG), β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) and serum albumin in blood were quantitativelytested. Glucose, pH value, protein, cells, cast and ketobodies in urine were assayed.Diagnosis of cataract was based on lens opacities classification system Ⅱ. Any patientmeeting "NⅡ", "CⅡ" or "PⅡ" level was diagnosed as cataract.Results: The incidence of cataract in this group of NIDDM was 62.37 % (494/792),which significantly related to the duration of the disease course, but not to the sex of thepatient. The occurrence rate of cataract in patients suffering from NIDDM of less thanfive years duration, from five to ten years, and more than ten years was 49.67 % (228/459), 71.84 % (125/174), and 88.68 % (141/159), respectively. The occurrence ofcataract in patients diagnosed of the disease from five to ten years and more than tenyears was much higher than that of those with the course of the disease less than fiveyears( P < 0.05 and P < 0. 001, respectively) . Rising concentrations of blood ureanitrogen, creatinine, glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c(G-HbA1c), N-acetyl-β2-D-glucosaminidase(NAG) and β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) indicated malfunction of thekidneys, and the rate of cataract occurrence in these patients was higher.Conclusion: This study indicates that prolongation of the duration of non-insulindependent diabetes mellitus, renal dysfunction, as well as poor blood glucose control,may accelerate the development of cataract.展开更多

Metbods: Plasma obese protein level was measured by radioimmunoassay in 21 normal subjects, 24 adult obese patients and 20 patients with NIDDM. Results: The levels of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients (81. 0±17. 5 pg/ml) were very significantly lower than those in normal subjects (194. 3±17. 7 pg/ml) and obese patients (109.1±16. 4 pg/ml ) (P<0.01). The levels of the plasma obese protein in non-obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in non-obese normal subjects (P<0.01), and the levels of the plasma obese protein in obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in obese patients (P<0. 01). The leve1s of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients were significantly correlated with polyphagia (P<0.05), but not correlated with the body weight indexes after strict dieting, and the plasma levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting glucose, hemoglobiti A, and the insulin levels during glucose tolerance test (P>0.05). Couclusion: Low plasma level of obese protein is one of the important factors contributing to obesity,and plasma obese protein may be closely related to the generation of NIDDM.展开更多

Blood glucose of 2 h after oral administration of 75 g glucose (2 h BG) was measured. WHO criteria were used for the diagnosis of NIDDMand IGT. Meanwhile epidemiological data were collected. Blood pressure, height, weight, waist and hip girths were measured. The crude prevalence was found to be 5. 82% (men 4.62%,woman 6. 69%) for NIDDM, 5. 87% (men 5. 30%, women 6. 29% ) for IGT and 14. 72% (men 16. 50%, women 13. 43 % ) for hypertension in the population obove 20 years of age. Age-adjusted prevalence was 4. 63% for NIDDM, 5. 07 % for IGT and 11. 19% for hypertension. Age increase (>40 years), obesity (BMI≥27) and central fat distribution (WHR≥0.88) were the risk factors for both diabetes and hypertension. The subjects≥40 years of age and obesity were the high risk population of NIDDM, IGT and hypertension. They were the target population for theprevention and treatment of diabetes and hypertension in the community level. High prevalences of NIDDM,IGT and hypertension were observed in the community population in Jiangsu province. To reinforce the prevention and treatment of these disorders in the province is imperative.展开更多

Methods: The model of rats withNIDDM was formed with injection of streptozotocin and fed on high calorie diet to study the effects of STHCQDon the release of insulin sensitivity. Results: (l ) Fasting serum glucose, serum insulin, intake of food and waterwere significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 -- 0. 01 ) in STHCQD-treated diabetic rats as compared with untreated diabetic rats, while the insulin sensitivity was significantly increased (P < 0. 05 ). (2) The liver cell membranesfrom STHCQD-treated diabetic rats released the quantity of insulin receptor which inhibited adenylate cyclaseactivity, but this effect was blunted in untreated diabetic rats (P < 0. 05). (3) A significantly increased glucoseoxidation in adipocyte of STHCQD-treated diabetic rats was found as compared with those of untreated diabeticrats (P< 0. 05). Conclusions: STHCQD therapy Increased sensitivity and responsiveness of target cells to insulin, i. e. it might decrease insulin resistance at receptor sites and POst--receptor sites in rats with NIDDM, butcould not.reverse the insulin resistance.展开更多

Methods STRs including D11S916 of uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) gene,binucleotide repeat (CA)n within intron 6 [HSLi6(CA)] of hormone-sensitive lipase(HSL)gene and D20S501 of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B)gene polymorphisms were detected, by poiymerase chain reaction(PCR) ,poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining in 106 patients with type 2 DM and 102 control subjects. Results The allele distribution of UCP3 and HSL gene differed significantly between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects (X2 = 26. 12,P<0. 005; X2 = 10. 33,P<0. 005,respectively). For UCP3 and HSL gene,the frequencies of alleles A6,A7,A8 and allele B9 were much higher in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 020,P<0. 005; 0. 109 vs 0. 015,P <0. 005; 0. 033 vs 0. 000,P<0. 05; 0. 033 vs 0. 005,P<0. 05,respectively),while the frequencies of allele A1 and allele B5 were lower in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 206,P<0. 005; 0. 057 vs 0. 118,P<0. 05,respectively). At D20S501 locus,The allele distribution of PTP-1B gene had no significant difference in two groups (X2 = 3. 77, P>0. 05). Multi-variate logistic regression analysis showed positive correlation between alleles A6,A7 of UCP3 gene,systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B, lipoprotein (a) and type 2 diabetes. Conclusion Our data show that D11S916 of UCP3 gene and HSLi6(CA) of HSL gene polymorphisms are associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese suggesting that UCP3 and HSL might represent susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes. D20S501 of PTP-IB gem polymorphism is not associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese. Alleles A6, A7 of UCP3 gene, systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B,Upoprotein (a) may play some role in the development of type 2 diabetes.展开更多

Viscosity of whole blood and clinical manifestations also improved obviously. The total effective rate in lowering plasma glucose was 77. 8 % with fasting blood glucose (FBG) and 69.4 % with 2 hours postprandial plasma blood glucose (2°PBG). In the control group, viscosity of whole blood andclinical manifestations had no significant improvement. Its total effective rate in lowering plasma glucose was41. 7% with FBG and 38. 9% with 2°PBG. Conclusions: XZT played a certain role in increasing activities ofNa+ -K + -ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+ -ATPase, decreasing viscosity of whole blood and plasma glucose and improving clinical manifestations. Therefore, XZT was experimentally manifested as an effective drug in treating NIDDM patients with Qi-Yin deficiency, renal deficiency and blood stasis.展开更多

文摘In order to confirm whether the mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue and mRNA levels of AdipoR1 in the skeletal muscles were correlated with the serum parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism and to clarify the regulation of adiponectin receptor gene expression in diabetic states, serum adiponectin, mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue and mRNA levels of AdipoR1 in the skeletal muscles were examined in type 2 diabetic rats. The model of type 2 diabetes was prepared by feeding high fat diet and injecting low dosage of streptozotocin (STZ). The diabetic rats were screened out by oral glucose tolerance test. One group of type 2 diabetic rats received rosiglitazone. The serum adiponectin concentration was detected by using ELISA and mRNA levels were examined by RT-PCR. The serum adiponectin levels and mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue of type 2 diabetic rats were significantly decreased as compared with the normal control rats (P<0.05, P<0.01 respectively). No siglificant changes were observed in the expression of adiponectin receptor 1 in the skeletal muscle of type 2 diabetic rats. The mRNA levels of adiponectin in adipose tissue were reversely correlated with serum insulin (r=-0.66, P<0.05), triglyceride (r=-0.58, P<0.05), cholesterol (r=-0.49, P<0.05), interleukin-6 (r=-0.49, P<0.05) and tumor necrosis factor (r=-0.43, P<0.05). The expression of adiponectin receptors was not altered in the skeletal muscle of Type 2 diabetic rats. The decreased serum adiponectin was caused by the decreased expression of adiponectin mRNA in adipose tissue rather than the adiponectin receptors in the skeletal muscle, which could be improved by rosiglitazone.

Metbods: Plasma obese protein level was measured by radioimmunoassay in 21 normal subjects, 24 adult obese patients and 20 patients with NIDDM. Results: The levels of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients (81. 0±17. 5 pg/ml) were very significantly lower than those in normal subjects (194. 3±17. 7 pg/ml) and obese patients (109.1±16. 4 pg/ml ) (P<0.01). The levels of the plasma obese protein in non-obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in non-obese normal subjects (P<0.01), and the levels of the plasma obese protein in obese NIDDM patients were very significantly lower than those in obese patients (P<0. 01). The leve1s of the plasma obese protein in NIDDM patients were significantly correlated with polyphagia (P<0.05), but not correlated with the body weight indexes after strict dieting, and the plasma levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting glucose, hemoglobiti A, and the insulin levels during glucose tolerance test (P>0.05). Couclusion: Low plasma level of obese protein is one of the important factors contributing to obesity,and plasma obese protein may be closely related to the generation of NIDDM.

文摘To determine the prevalences of non-insulin-dependent-diabetes mellitus (NIDDM),impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and hypertension on urban and rural communities of Jiangsu province,8734 subjects sampled from six areas of Jiangsu were investigated. Blood glucose of 2 h after oral administration of 75 g glucose (2 h BG) was measured. WHO criteria were used for the diagnosis of NIDDMand IGT. Meanwhile epidemiological data were collected. Blood pressure, height, weight, waist and hip girths were measured. The crude prevalence was found to be 5. 82% (men 4.62%,woman 6. 69%) for NIDDM, 5. 87% (men 5. 30%, women 6. 29% ) for IGT and 14. 72% (men 16. 50%, women 13. 43 % ) for hypertension in the population obove 20 years of age. Age-adjusted prevalence was 4. 63% for NIDDM, 5. 07 % for IGT and 11. 19% for hypertension. Age increase (>40 years), obesity (BMI≥27) and central fat distribution (WHR≥0.88) were the risk factors for both diabetes and hypertension. The subjects≥40 years of age and obesity were the high risk population of NIDDM, IGT and hypertension. They were the target population for theprevention and treatment of diabetes and hypertension in the community level. High prevalences of NIDDM,IGT and hypertension were observed in the community population in Jiangsu province. To reinforce the prevention and treatment of these disorders in the province is imperative.
文摘Objective: To investigate the effect of supplemented Taohe Chengqi Decoction (桃核承气汤,STHCQD) in treating non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Methods: The model of rats withNIDDM was formed with injection of streptozotocin and fed on high calorie diet to study the effects of STHCQDon the release of insulin sensitivity. Results: (l ) Fasting serum glucose, serum insulin, intake of food and waterwere significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 -- 0. 01 ) in STHCQD-treated diabetic rats as compared with untreated diabetic rats, while the insulin sensitivity was significantly increased (P < 0. 05 ). (2) The liver cell membranesfrom STHCQD-treated diabetic rats released the quantity of insulin receptor which inhibited adenylate cyclaseactivity, but this effect was blunted in untreated diabetic rats (P < 0. 05). (3) A significantly increased glucoseoxidation in adipocyte of STHCQD-treated diabetic rats was found as compared with those of untreated diabeticrats (P< 0. 05). Conclusions: STHCQD therapy Increased sensitivity and responsiveness of target cells to insulin, i. e. it might decrease insulin resistance at receptor sites and POst--receptor sites in rats with NIDDM, butcould not.reverse the insulin resistance.
文摘The effects of berberine on 60 cases with noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus and ex-perimental research results were observed in this study. The results suggest berberine has significant ef-fects on noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus patients and experimental diabetes in animals in the re-duction of blood glucose levels. The clinical symptoms basically disappeared and the level of serum insulinrose. The total effective rate was up to 90 percent and there were no signiticant side-effects. It was foundthat berberine has an effect on the recovery of pancreas islet cells, through pathological examination onthe animal subjects.
文摘The therapeutic effect of Jiang Tang San (JTS) on 30 cases with non-insulin dependent dia-betes mellitus (NIDDM) , was observed, whose fasting blood glucose ranged trom 11. 1 mmol/L to 13. 8mmol/L. The results suggested that JTS has significant effect on NIDDM patients in lowering blood glucose,blood lipid and blood pressure levels. Clinical symptoms and blood glucose improved rapidly. JTS promotedthe elevation of serum insulin level 1 hour after meal. The total effective rate of lowering blood glucosereached 86. 7% . The results showed JTS is better than berberine on lowering blood glucose ( P< 0. 01 ) andwhen patients failed to respond to other hypoglycemics or on recurrence JTS was still effective. There wereno marked side-effects during the course of treatment.

文摘Objectives To explore the relationship between the polymorphisms of the selected short tandem repeats (STRs) of the candidate genes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) in a Chinese population,the role of genetic and environmental factors in the development of type 2 diabetes. Methods STRs including D11S916 of uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) gene,binucleotide repeat (CA)n within intron 6 [HSLi6(CA)] of hormone-sensitive lipase(HSL)gene and D20S501 of protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B)gene polymorphisms were detected, by poiymerase chain reaction(PCR) ,poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining in 106 patients with type 2 DM and 102 control subjects. Results The allele distribution of UCP3 and HSL gene differed significantly between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects (X2 = 26. 12,P<0. 005; X2 = 10. 33,P<0. 005,respectively). For UCP3 and HSL gene,the frequencies of alleles A6,A7,A8 and allele B9 were much higher in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 020,P<0. 005; 0. 109 vs 0. 015,P <0. 005; 0. 033 vs 0. 000,P<0. 05; 0. 033 vs 0. 005,P<0. 05,respectively),while the frequencies of allele A1 and allele B5 were lower in diabetic patients than in control subjects (0. 090 vs 0. 206,P<0. 005; 0. 057 vs 0. 118,P<0. 05,respectively). At D20S501 locus,The allele distribution of PTP-1B gene had no significant difference in two groups (X2 = 3. 77, P>0. 05). Multi-variate logistic regression analysis showed positive correlation between alleles A6,A7 of UCP3 gene,systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B, lipoprotein (a) and type 2 diabetes. Conclusion Our data show that D11S916 of UCP3 gene and HSLi6(CA) of HSL gene polymorphisms are associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese suggesting that UCP3 and HSL might represent susceptibility genes for type 2 diabetes. D20S501 of PTP-IB gem polymorphism is not associated with type 2 diabetes in Chinese. Alleles A6, A7 of UCP3 gene, systolic blood pressure, apolipoprotein B,Upoprotein (a) may play some role in the development of type 2 diabetes.
文摘Objective: To assess the effects of Xianzhen tablet (XZT) on Na+-K+ -ATPase and Ca2+ Mg2+-ATPase on erythrocytic membranes, viscosity of whole blood, plasma glucose and clinical manifestations.Methods: Seventy-two cases of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients with deficiency of both Qi and Yin, deficiency of the Kidney and blood stasis were selected, and the effects of treatment on Na+ K + -ATPase, Ca2+-Mg2+ -ATPase, whole blood viscosity, blood sugar and clinical Symptoms were observed.Results: In XZT group (test group), activities of Na+ -K+ -ATPase and Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase rose significantly(P< 0. 01, P< 0. 05) after treatment. Viscosity of whole blood and clinical manifestations also improved obviously. The total effective rate in lowering plasma glucose was 77. 8 % with fasting blood glucose (FBG) and 69.4 % with 2 hours postprandial plasma blood glucose (2°PBG). In the control group, viscosity of whole blood andclinical manifestations had no significant improvement. Its total effective rate in lowering plasma glucose was41. 7% with FBG and 38. 9% with 2°PBG. Conclusions: XZT played a certain role in increasing activities ofNa+ -K + -ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+ -ATPase, decreasing viscosity of whole blood and plasma glucose and improving clinical manifestations. Therefore, XZT was experimentally manifested as an effective drug in treating NIDDM patients with Qi-Yin deficiency, renal deficiency and blood stasis.
