Project description:Patients with long-duration diabetes develop cardiovascular complications resulting in highly increased mortality and complications which affect the kidneys, eyes and peripheral nerves associated with high morbidity. Among the diabetic complications, damage in the eye, diabetic retinopathy, is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of vision-loss globally. It is characterized by a number of different patho-mechanisms including changes in vascular permeability, capillary degeneration, and finally at a late stage overshooting formation of new blood vessels. This expression analysis focused on the use of different experimental models for Diabetes Mellitus and its complications (for a review see 1: Al-Awar et al: Experimental Diabetes Mellitus in Different Animal Models. J Diabetes Res. 2016; doi: 10.1155/2016/9051426). By that, we wanted to uncover the relative contributions of systemic hyperinsulinaemia and/or hyperglycemia to molecular regulations. The following models have been used: As insulinopenic, hyperglycemic model reflecting Type 1 diabetes, male STZ-Wistar rats (60mg/kg BW; i.p.) were used. Wistar rats without STZ injection served as non-diabetic controls. Male obese ZDF rats (Fa/Fa) were used as type-2 diabetes model characterized by persisting hyperglycemia and transient hyperinsulinemia. Male lean ZDF rats (Fa/-) served as non-diabetic controls. Male obese ZF rats (Fa/Fa) hyperglycemia were used reflecting euglycemia and severe insulin resistance. Male lean ZF rats (Fa/-) served as controls. ZDF and ZF rats were obtained in two genotypes, obese (genotype fa/fa) and lean littermates (genotype Fa/?). All rats were housed in standard cages under a normal light-dark cycle for 16 weeks. All animals had free access to food and water. ZF and Wistar rats received a standard chow (Ssniff R/M) and ZDF rats received Purina 5008 chow. A group size of n=8 were used for all study groups. Wistar rats were rendered type-1 like hyperglycemic and hypoinsulinemic via a single injection of streptocotocin (STZ, 60mg/kg; i.p.) at 7 weeks of age. Obese ZDF rats (fa/fa) develop spontaneously a type-2 diabetes phenotype with persisting hyperglycemia and transient hyperinsulinemia (hyperglycemic, hypoinsulinemic). Obese ZF rats (fa/fa) develop insulin resistance with permanent hyperinsulinemia without concomitant hyperglycemia and no overt diabetes phenotype. Non STZ treated Wistar rats, lean ZDF littermates (Fa/?), and lean ZF littermates (Fa/?) served as controls. All groups were kept for 12 weeks on respective conditions together with appropriate age-matched controls. Unbiased gene expression analysis was performed per group using Affymetrix gene arrays.

Project description:Population based studies have established that androgen deficiency in males correlates with type 2 diabetes, visceral adiposity, and metabolic syndrome. Androgen therapy has been investigated as a possible treatment regime to combat these disorders. However, the molecular mechanism of androgen effects on these diseases still remain poorly understood. The zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rat, containing a mutation in the leptin receptor, is a well-investigated model of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Male rats are characterized as androgen deficient and spontaneously develop obese, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia. In this study, we used ZDF male rats as a model of metabolic syndrome to investigate the effects of testosterone administration on the development of the metabolic conditions. Methods: Male ZDF rats at six week of age were randomly divided into two groups and administered testosterone undecanoate(TU) or vehicle alone every three days for three weeks. After three weeks, overnight fasted blood glucose and insulin concentrations were significantly higher and glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity were impaired in TU treated ZDF rats compared to vehicle controls. Moreover, increased serum triglycerides and VLDL were observed in TU treated rats. To further explore the observed metabolic changes in TU treated ZDF rats, whole-genome microarray analysis were performed on isolated liver mRNA. Results: Array analysis revealed that many hepatic lipogenic genes were increased in male ZDF rat livers treated with TU. Interestingly, SREBP-1c, a key transcriptional activator of lipogenic genes and PGC-1 , an activator of SREBP-1c were induced while small heterodimer partner, a transcriptional inhibitor of lipogenic genes was suppressed by TU treatment. Exploring signaling pathways for these effects, we observed that the hepatic activated forms of STAT3 and AMPK, two known inhibitors of hepatic lipogenesis, were decreased in TU treated rat. Moreover, we observed that DHT could block the induction of STAT3 and AMPK phosphorylation in treated primary human hepatocytes. Preliminarily, in the leptin receptor positive zucker diabetic lean male rats, we observed that TU treatment has an oppose effect on the hepatic lipogenic genes, suggesting that hepatic leptin signaling may influence androgen signaling. Further insight into the relationship between androgen deficiency and the leptin system may help improve treatment of the metabolic syndrome.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes differs from type 1 diabetes in its pathogenesis. Type 1 diabetic diaphragm has altered gene expression which includes lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, ubiquitination and oxidoreductase activity. The objectives of the present study were to assess respiratory muscle gene expression changes in type 2 diabetes and to determine whether they are greater for the diaphragm than an upper airway muscle. Diaphragm and sternohyoid muscle from Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats were analyzed with Affymetrix gene expression arrays. The two muscles had 97 and 102 genes, respectively, with at least ±1.5-fold significantly changed expression with diabetes, and these were assigned to gene ontology groups based on over-representation analysis. Several significantly changed groups were common to both muscles, including lipid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, muscle contraction, ion transport and collagen, although the number of genes and the specific genes involved differed considerably for the two muscles. In both muscles there was a shift in metabolism gene expression from carbohydrate metabolism toward lipid metabolism, but the shift was greater and involved more genes in diabetic diaphragm than diabetic sternohyoid muscle. Groups present in only diaphragm were blood circulation and oxidoreductase activity. Groups present in only sternohyoid were immune & inflammation and response to stress & wounding, with complement genes being a prominent component. In conclusion, type 2 diabetes-induced gene expression changes in respiratory muscles has both similarities and differences relative to previous data on type 1 diabetes gene expression. Furthermore, the diabetic alterations in gene expression differ between diaphragm and sternohyoid. 18-week-old Zucker diabetic fatty rats: 6 normal and 5 diabetic diaphragms and sternohyoids.

Project description:Background: In the diabetic heart the β-adrenergic response is altered partly by down-regulation of the β1-adrenoceptor, reducing its positive inotropic effect and up-regulation of the β3-adrenoceptor, increasing its negative inotropic effect. Statins have clinical benefits on morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients which are attributed to âpleiotropicâ effects. The objective of our study was to investigate the role of statin treatment on β-adrenergic dysfunction in diabetic rat cardiomyocytes. Methods: β-adrenergic responses were investigated in vivo (echocardiography) and ex vivo (left ventricular papillary muscles) in healthy and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, who were pre-treated or not by oral atorvastatin over 15 days (50 mg.kg-1.day-1). Micro-array analysis and immunoblotting were performed in left ventricular homogenates. Data are presented as mean percentage of baseline ± SD. Results: Atorvastatin restored the impaired positive inotropic effect of β-adrenergic stimulation in diabetic hearts compared with healthy hearts both in vivo and ex vivo but did not suppress the diastolic dysfunction of diabetes. Atorvastatin changed the RNA expression of 9 genes in the β-adrenergic pathway and corrected the protein expression of β1-adrenoceptor and β1/β3-adrenoceptor ratio, and multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4). Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition abolished the beneficial effects of atorvastatin on the β-adrenoceptor response. Conclusions: Atorvastatin restored the positive inotropic effect of the β-adrenoceptor stimulation in diabetic cardiomyopathy. This effect is mediated by multiple modifications in expression of proteins in the β-adrenergic signaling pathway, particularly through the NOS pathway.

Project description:Here we analyzed how whole egg consumption in Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats alters microRNA and mRNA expression across the adipose, liver, kidney, and prefrontal cortex tissue. Male ZDF (fa/fa) rats (n = 12) and their lean controls (fa/+) (n = 12) were obtained at 6 wk of age. Rats had ad libitum access to water and were randomly assigned to a modified semi-purified AIN93G casein-based diet or a whole egg-based diet, both providing 20% protein (w/w). TotalRNA libraries were prepared using QuantSeq 3' mRNA-Seq and Lexogen smallRNA library prep kits and were further sequenced on an Illumina HighSeq3000. Differential gene expression was conducted using DESeq2 in R and Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted P- values controlling for false discovery rate at 5%.We identified 9 microRNAs and 583 genes that were differentially expressed in response to 8 wk of consuming whole egg-based diets.

Project description:Cardiomyopathy in type 1 diabetic patients is characterized by early onset diastolic and late onset systolic dysfunction. The mechanism underlying development of diastolic and systolic dysfunction in diabetes remains unknown. We used microarrays to detail the ventricle gene expression changes that underly development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process. Experiment Overall Design: 150g male Wistar rats (Harlan) we injected with 65 mg/kg streptozotocin to induce Type 1 diabetes. Four replicates of Control and Diabetic rat ventricles were removed and frozen at Three time points for total RNA isolation and hybridization on the Affymetrix RG-U34A microarray. The 3 day samples show a baseline for initial diabetic changes in the ventricle. The 28 day samples show changes associated with diastolic dysfunction in diabetes. The 42 day samples show changes associated with both diastolic and systolic dysfunction in type 1 diabetic rat ventricles.
