An in vivo invertebrate evaluation system for identifying substances that suppress sucrose-induced postprandial hyperglycemia.

ABSTRACT: Sucrose is a major sweetener added to various foods and beverages. Excessive intake of sucrose leads to increases in blood glucose levels, which can result in the development and exacerbation of lifestyle-related diseases such as obesity and diabetes. In this study, we established an in vivo evaluation system using silkworms to explore substances that suppress the increase in blood glucose levels caused by dietary intake of sucrose. Silkworm hemolymph glucose levels rapidly increased after intake of a sucrose-containing diet. Addition of acarbose or voglibose, ?-glycosidase inhibitors clinically used for diabetic patients, suppressed the dietary sucrose-induced increase in the silkworm hemolymph glucose levels. Screening performed using the sucrose-induced postprandial hyperglycemic silkworm model allowed us to identify some lactic acid bacteria that inhibit the increase in silkworm hemolymph glucose levels caused by dietary intake of sucrose. The inhibitory effects of the Lactococcus lactis #Ll-1 bacterial strain were significantly greater than those of different strains of lactic acid bacteria. No effect of the Lactococcus lactis #Ll-1 strain was observed in silkworms fed a glucose diet. These results suggest that the sucrose diet-induced postprandial hyperglycemic silkworm is a useful model for evaluating chemicals and lactic acid bacteria that suppress increases in blood glucose levels.

Project description:ContextPeople with prediabetes are at high risk of developing diabetes.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to determine the pathogenesis of fasting and postprandial hyperglycemia in prediabetes.DesignGlucose production, gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis, and glucose disappearance were measured before and during a hyperinsulinemic clamp using [6,6-(2)H2]glucose and the deuterated water method corrected for transaldolase exchange.SettingThe study was conducted at the Mayo Clinic Clinical Research Unit.ParticipantsSubjects with impaired fasting glucose (IFG)/normal glucose tolerance (NGT) (n = 14), IFG/impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (n = 18), and normal fasting glucose (NFG)/NGT (n = 16) were studied.InterventionA hyperinsulinemic clamp was used.Outcome measuresGlucose production, glucose disappearance, gluconeogenesis, and glycogenolysis were measured.ResultsFasting glucose production was higher (P < .0001) in subjects with IFG/NGT than in those with NFG/NGT because of increased rates of gluconeogenesis (P = .003). On the other hand, insulin-induced suppression of glucose production, gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis, and stimulation of glucose disappearance all were normal. Although fasting glucose production also was increased (P = .0002) in subjects with IFG/IGT, insulin-induced suppression of glucose production, gluconeogenesis, and glycogenolysis and stimulation of glucose disappearance were impaired (P = .005).ConclusionsFasting hyperglycemia is due to excessive glucose production in people with either IFG/NGT or IFG/IGT. Both insulin action and postprandial glucose concentrations are normal in IFG/NGT but abnormal in IFG/IGT. This finding suggests that hepatic and extrahepatic insulin resistance causes or exacerbates postprandial glucose intolerance in IFG/IGT. Elevated gluconeogenesis in the fasting state in IFG/NGT and impaired insulin-induced suppression of both gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis in IFG/IGT suggest that alteration in the regulation of these pathways occurs early in the evolution of type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Introduction: Fatty acids are a major nutrient in dietary fat, some of which are ligands of long-chain fatty acid receptors, including G-protein-coupled receptor (GPR) 40 and GPR120. Pretreatment with GPR40 agonists enhanced the secretion of insulin in response to elevating blood glucose levels after glucose load in a diabetes model, but pretreatment with GPR120 agonist did not ameliorate postprandial hyperglycemia. This study examined whether oral administration of linoleic acid (LA), a GPR40 and GPR120 agonist, immediately before glucose load would affect the elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels in rats. Methods: Male rats and rats with type 1 diabetes administered streptozocin were orally administered LA, trilinolein, α-linolenic acid (α-LA), oleic acid, TAK-875, or TUG-891 immediately before glucose load. Blood glucose levels were measured before, then 15, 30, 60 and 120 min after glucose load. CACO-2 cells were used to measure the uptake of [14C] α-MDG for 30 min with or without LA. Gastric content from rats administered LA was collected 15 and 30 min after glucose load, and blood samples were collected for measurement of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and cholecystokinin concentrations. Results: The elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels was slowed by LA but not by trilinolein in rats without promotion of insulin secretion, and this effect was also observed in rats with type 1 diabetes. The uptake of α-MDG, an SGLT-specific substrate, was, however, not inhibited by LA. Gastric emptying was slowed by LA 15 min after glucose load, and GLP-1, but not cholecystokinin, level was elevated by LA 15 min after glucose load. TUG-891, a GPR120 agonist, ameliorated postprandial hyperglycemia but TAK-875, a GPR40 agonist, did not. Pretreatment with AH7614, a GPR120 antagonist, partially canceled the improvement of postprandial hyperglycemia induced by LA. α-LA, which has high affinity with GPR120 as well as LA, slowed the elevation of postprandial blood glucose levels, but oleic acid, which has lower affinity with GPR120 than LA, did not. Conclusion: Oral administration of LA immediately after glucose load ameliorated postprandial hyperglycemia due to slowing of gastric emptying via promotion of GLP-1 secretion. The mechanisms may be associated with GPR120 pathway.
