ABSTRACT
Neste estudo, avaliamos o efeito da restrição calórica e do treinamento resistido na massa corporal e na sensibilidade à insulina de ratas ovariectomizadas. 80 ratas fêmeas da linhagem Holtzman foram distribuídas em 8 grupos (n=10 cada): ovariectomizado (OVX), ovariectomizado com restrição calórica (OVX RC), ovariectomizado com treinamento resistido (OVX TR), ovariectomizado com restrição calórica e treinamento resistido (OVX TR+RC), Sham operado (SHAM), Sham com restrição calórica (SHAM RC), sham com treinamento resistido (SHAM TR), sham com restrição calórica e treinamento resistido (SHAM TR+RC). Após 13 semanas de intervenção, foram analisados: massa corporal, gordura corporal; concentrações sanguíneas de glicose, insulina e adiponectina; conteúdo de AKT total e fosforilada, pi3k e Glut 4 (nos tecidos adiposos subcutâneo e retroperitoneal). As ratas ovariectomizadas (OVX, OVX RC, OVX TR e OVX TR+RC) apresentaram maior massa corporal e gordura corporal quando comparadas ao grupo SHAM. As concentrações de glicose e insulina foram semelhantes em todos os grupos experimentais, porém a concentração de adiponectina foi menor nos grupos ovariectomizados (OVX, OVX RC, OVX TR e OVX TR+RC), quando comparados ao grupo SHAM. A RC e o TR aumentaram a concentração de adiponectina quando comparado ao grupo OVX. Não houve diferença entre os grupos em relação à via de sinalização da insulina nos tecidos adiposos subcutâneo e retroperitoneal. Concluímos que a ovariectomia causa aumento de massa e gordura corporal, levando à menor concentração de adiponectina, e que a RC e o TR alteram estas modificações
In this study, we evaluated the effect of calorie restriction and strength training on the body weight and insulin sensitivity of ovariectomized rats. Eighty female Holtzman rats were divided into eight groups (n=10 per group): ovariectomized (OVX), ovariectomized plus calorie restriction (OVX-CR), ovariectomized plus strength training (OVX-ST), ovariectomized plus strength training and calorie restriction (OVX-ST+CR), sham operated (SHAM), sham plus calorie restriction (SHAM-CR), sham plus strength training (SHAM-ST), and sham plus strength training and calorie restriction (SHAM-ST+CR). The following variables were analyzed after 13 weeks of intervention: body weight; body fat; blood concentrations of glucose, insulin and adiponectin; total and phosphorylated AKT content; pi3k and Glut 4 (in subcutaneous and retroperitoneal adipose tissues). Ovariectomized rats (OVX, OVX-CR, OVX-ST, and OVX-ST+CR) had a higher body weight and body fat than SHAM animals. Glucose and insulin concentrations were similar in all experimental groups, but adiponectin concentration was lower in the ovariectomized groups (OVX, OVX-CR, OVX-ST, and OVX-ST+CR) when compared to the SHAM group. Calorie restriction and ST increased the concentration of adiponectin when compared to the OVX group. There was no difference between groups in terms of insulin signaling in subcutaneous or retroperitoneal adipose tissue. We conclude that ovariectomy increases body weight and body fat, reducing adiponectin concentration, and that CR and ST alter these modifications

Background: Celiac disease is more common in patients with insulindependent diabetes than in the general population. Aim: To detect celiac disease in diabetic children and adolescent. Patients and methods: Iga antigliadin, IgG antireticulin and IgG antiendomysium antibodies were measured in 67 diabetic children (35 female), aged between 4 and 18 years old. Results : Only one male adolescent, aged years old, without gastrointestinal symptoms, had a significant elevation of antirecticulin and antiendomysium antibodies. His intestinal biopsy showed subtotal villous atrophy, consisten with celiac disease. Conclusions: The prevalence of celiac disease in these diabetic children is 1:67 (1.5 percent). Similar figures have been reported elsewhere
