To examine the effect of diacerein on vascular dysfunction in type 2 diabetic rats and elucidate the mechanism of diacerein.
In a rat model, type 2 diabetes was induced by high-fat diet and streptozotocin. Vascular function was assessed in vascular reactivity experiment. The effect of diacerein (10 or 20 mg/kg/day) on blood glucose, inflammation and insulin signaling, and modulators in vascular tissue in diabetic rats were investigated by molecular and biochemical approaches.
In this study, diacerein inhibited diabetes-induced vascular dysfunction. Diacerein treatment normalized blood glucose, insulin tolerance test, inflammatory cytokine levels and nitric oxide synthases expression in diabetic rats. Moreover, diacerein inhibited NF-κB and NLRP3 pathways and activated insulin signaling pathway related proteins IRS-1 and AKT in diabetic rats.
Diacerein improved vascular function effectively in diabetic rats by suppressing inflammation and reducing insulin resistance. These results suggest that diacerein may represent a novel therapy for patients with diabetes.
研究二乙酰瑞林对 2 型糖尿病大鼠血管功能障碍的影响,并阐明二乙酰瑞林的作用机制。
采用高脂饮食和链脲佐菌素诱导大鼠 2 型糖尿病模型。通过血管反应性实验评估血管功能。采用分子和生化方法研究二乙酰瑞林(10 或 20mg/kg/天)对糖尿病大鼠血糖、炎症和胰岛素信号以及血管组织中调节剂的影响。
本研究表明,二乙酰瑞林抑制了糖尿病引起的血管功能障碍。二乙酰瑞林治疗使糖尿病大鼠的血糖、胰岛素耐量试验、炎性细胞因子水平和一氧化氮合酶表达恢复正常。此外,二乙酰瑞林抑制了 NF-κB 和 NLRP3 途径,并激活了糖尿病大鼠胰岛素信号通路相关蛋白 IRS-1 和 AKT。
二乙酰瑞林通过抑制炎症和减轻胰岛素抵抗,有效地改善了糖尿病大鼠的血管功能。这些结果表明,二乙酰瑞林可能为糖尿病患者提供一种新的治疗方法。
