RESUMO
OBJECTIVE：To study the effects of Purple frute scens leaves polysaccharides （PPLPs）on oxidative stress and PI3K/AKT/GLUT4 signaling pathway of pancreatic tissues in diabetes mellitus （DM）model mice. METHODS ：Totally 60 mice were given intraperitoneal injection of STZ （60 mg/kg）to induce DM model. The 40 successful modeling mice were randomly divided into model group ，metformin group （positive control ，200 mg/kg），PPLPs high-dose and low-dose groups （400，200 mg/kg），with 10 mice in each group. Another 10 healthy mice were selected as the normal group （normal saline ）. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically ，once a day ，for consecutive 28 days. During the experiment ，general information and body weight of mice were observed ；oral glucose tolerance （OGTT）test（determining FBG at 0，30，60，120 min after giving 40％ glucose solution ）was conducted. After last medication ，the changes of related blood glucose indexes （FBG，FINS，ISI，IRI）， blood lipid indexes （HDL-C，LDL-C，TC，TG）and oxidant stress indexes （MDA content and the activities of SOD ，CAT， GSH-Px）as well as the protein expressions of PI 3K，p-AKT and GLUT 4 in pancreatic tissue were determined. RESULTS ：During the experiment ，compared with normal group ，the mice were slow in action ，the feed consumption and water consumption increased，and body weight significantly increased in model group （P＜0.05）. 0，30，60，120 min after giving glucose ，the FBG content of mice were all increased significantly （P＜0.05）. After last medication ，the contents of FINS and HDL-C in serum as well as ISI ，the activities of SOD ，CAT and GSH-Px as well as the protein expressions of PI 3K，p-AKT and GLUT 4 in pancreatic tissue were all decreased significantly （P＜0.05）；the contents of FBG and LDL-C ，TC and TG in serum as well as IRI ， 疗。E-mail：sunguangping83@163.com MDA content in pancreatic tissue were all increased significantly（P＜0.05）. Compared with model group ，the general condition and OGTT of mice in each administration group was improved；the contents of FINS and HDL-C in serum as well as ISI ，the activities of SOD ，CAT and GSH-Px as well as the protein expressions of PI 3K，p-AKT and GLUT 4 in pancreatic tissue were all increased significantly （P＜0.05）；the contents of FBG，LDL-C，TC and TG in serum as well as IRI ，MDA content of pancreatic tissue were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS：PPLPs has anti-diabetic effects ，which are related to reducting oxidative stress level and promoting the activation of PI 3K/AKT/GLUT4 signaling pathway.
RESUMO
This study aimed to investigate the effects of kaempferol on the skeletal muscle of KKAy mice via PI3K-AKT-GLUT4 signaling.Spontaneous type 2 diabetic KKAy mice were made up for the model group.After 6-week treatment of kaempferol by intragastric administration,key targets of PI3K-AKT-GLUT4 signaling were detected using biochemical and immunohistochemical technique,and western blot.It was found that the body weight,fast blood glucose and random blood glucose were decreased after kaempferol administration.ITT results show that blood glucose at 30 min after injecting insulin and the area under the curve drop were reduced in the kaempferol group,and so was the insulin resistance index in the kaempferol group.In addition,the mRNA expressions of PI3K,AKT and GLUT4 in the kaempferol group increased significantly,while the protein levels of AKT and GLUT4 were up-regulated by kaempferol administration.It was concluded that kaempferol can significantly regulate the blood glucose,body weight and insulin resistance in mice through activating the PI3K-AKT-GLUT4 signaling.
