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:The ZDF rat, with spontaneous homozygous mutation of the leptin receptor gene (fa/fa), is one of the widely used animal model for studying the human type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Male ZDF rats have the symptoms of obesity and insulin resistance at a young age, accompanying with impaired islet function. However, their hepatic pathogenesis is still unclear. Based on the successive observations and the transcriptomic analyses of the liver tissue at 22 weeks old, we detected the typical clinical indications of T2DM, severe hepatic metabolic remodeling and the inflammatory liver injury in the ZDF rats. The integrin linked kinase signaling, as well as the endoplasmic reticulum stress and its downstream p38 MAPK signaling, seemed to play crucial roles in it. We have proved the ZDF rats could better simulate the pathogenesis of the human T2DM associated nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and provided targets and reference for future T2DM studies.

Project description:Analysis of the gene signature of steatosis associated to obesity in hepatocytes of Zucker fa/fa obese rats and their controls; identifying target genes linked to steatosis progression. or Obesity and insulin resistance-associated steatosis can be a non-inflammatory condition affecting hepatocytes or progress to steatohepatitis: a condition that can result in end-stage liver disease. Although molecular events leading to accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver have been identified individually, the complexity of the condition suggested that emergent target would be uncovered by a more comprehensive examination. Then, this study was aimed at establishing a gene signature of steatosis in hepatocytes and at identifying target genes linked to steatosis progression. Using Affymetrix oligonucleotide arrays, we compared transcriptomes of hepatocytes isolated from Zucker "fa/fa" obese rats with three different age-related grades of steatosis with those of their counterpart non-steatotic cells.

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:Albuminuria is significantly reduced following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, suggesting a renoprotective effect of the intervention. Herein, we assess the relative impact of RYGB and RYGB equivalent non-surgical weight loss and glycaemic improvement on glomerular injury and global renal transcriptomic responses in the Zucker diabetic fatty rat (ZDF) model of diabetic nephropathy. We coined the term "medical bypass" (MB) to describe the intensive diet and pharmacotherapy based non-surgical intervention Adult ZDF rats underwent sham surgery (n=15) or RYGB (n=9). Nine sham-operated rats were calorie restricted and received insulin, liraglutide, metformin, ramipril, rosuvastatin and fenofibrate for 2 months (MB). Zucker fa/+ rats acted as healthy controls throughout. Bodyweight, glycaemia, albuminuria and glomerular injury specifically podocyte number, density and ultrastructure were assessed at follow up. Renal transcriptomes were compared by RNA-seq. RYGB resulted in 20-30% weight loss, normalized glycaemia and albuminuria and reduced indices of glomerular injury, specifically podocyte injury (foot process effacement). RYGB equivalent outcomes were obtained on all parameters following MB.
