Glomerular capillary basement membrane thickness (BMT) was measured in 23 rats which had had streptozocin-induced diabetes for 14 months and in 12 age-matched controls. Diabetic rats were randomly allocated to different groups, either receiving no treatment or treated with a low carbohydrate diet or insulin, or both. Control rats were randomly allocated to a normal or low carbohydrate diet. Among the diabetic rats mean plasma glucose concentrations for the groups ranged from 27-4 mmol/l (494 mg/100 ml) in the untreated rats to 9-8 mmol/l (177 mg/100 ml) in those receiving both a low carbohydrate diet and insulin. A highly significant positive relation was found between BMT and plasma glucose concentration for individual rats. When BMT was corrected for body weight a similar relation was observed.
测量了23只链脲佐菌素诱导糖尿病14个月的大鼠以及12只年龄匹配的对照大鼠的肾小球毛细血管基底膜厚度(BMT)。糖尿病大鼠被随机分为不同组,分别为不接受治疗、接受低碳水化合物饮食治疗、接受胰岛素治疗或两者皆接受治疗。对照大鼠被随机分配到正常或低碳水化合物饮食组。在糖尿病大鼠中,各治疗组的平均血浆葡萄糖浓度范围为:未治疗大鼠为27.4 mmol/L(494 mg/100 ml),接受低碳水化合物饮食和胰岛素治疗的大鼠为9.8 mmol/L(177 mg/100 ml)。在个体大鼠中,发现BMT与血浆葡萄糖浓度之间存在高度显著的正相关关系。当对BMT进行体重校正时,观察到类似的关系。
