Cγ and lupanine enhances in vivo the antidiabetic effect and involves modulation of the liver gene expression profile
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Previous studies have individually shown the antidiabetic potential of gamma conglutin (Cγ) and lupanine from lupins. Until now, the influence of combines both compounds and the effective dose of the combination is not assessed. Moreover, the resulting gene profile from this novel combination remains to be explored. Therefore, we proposed to study different dose combinations of Cγ and lupanine by the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to identify the greater antidiabetic effect on the T2D rat model. Later, we administered the selected dose combination for a week. Finally, we evaluated the gene expression profile using DNA microarrays and its bioinformatic analysis. We found that the combination of 28 mg/kg BW Cγ + 20 mg/kg BW lupanine positively influences the expression of Pdk4, Ppargc1a, Foxo1, and Foxo3 genes. The reestablishment of Pdk4 gene expression is involved in several biological processes associated with regulation, metabolism, and homeostasis of glucose and fatty acids. For the first time, we reported the beneficial effect of the combination of two functional lupin compounds in a T2D rat model. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to investigate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the Cγ + lupanine combination.
