To study the influence of the course of diabetes, aging, and glycemia on the sorbitol accumulation in diabetic rats.
Streptozocin (Str) diabetic rats were obtained by Str i.v. (35 mg.kg-1). Glycemia and sorbitol levels from sciatic nerve and lens were measured after 1 d, 2, 5, and 8 months of diabetes. Sorbitol concentrations in serum, heart, diaphragm, small intestine, and kidney after 8 months of diabetes were measured.
Diabetic rats after Str injection showed hyperglycemia (> 1.7 g.L-1), hyperphagia, polyuria, polydipsia, and loss of body weight. Sorbitol levels in lens and sciatic nerve increased in normal and diabetic rats; the increase was higher in diabetic rats. No relationship was shown between glycemia and sorbitol levels. An increased sorbitol level after 8 months of diabetes was found in small intestine and kidney.
The sorbitol levels increased in lens and sciatic nerve with aging and this process was accelerated by diabetes.
研究糖尿病病程、衰老及血糖水平对糖尿病大鼠山梨醇蓄积的影响。
通过静脉注射链脲佐菌素(Str,35mg·kg-1)制备糖尿病大鼠。在糖尿病病程1天、2个月、5个月和8个月后,测定坐骨神经和晶状体中的血糖及山梨醇水平。在糖尿病病程8个月后,测定血清、心脏、膈肌、小肠和肾脏中的山梨醇浓度。
注射链脲佐菌素后的糖尿病大鼠出现高血糖(>1.7g·L-1)、多食、多尿、多饮及体重减轻。正常大鼠和糖尿病大鼠晶状体及坐骨神经中的山梨醇水平均升高;糖尿病大鼠升高更明显。血糖水平与山梨醇水平之间无相关性。糖尿病病程8个月后,小肠和肾脏中的山梨醇水平升高。
晶状体和坐骨神经中的山梨醇水平随衰老而升高,糖尿病会加速这一过程。
