Effect of sulodexide on islet β-cell function in streptozocin induced diabetic rats / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of sulodexide on islet B-cell function in streptozocin induced di-abetic rats. Methods Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into normal control group (group C), dia-betic group without treatment(group D), and suledexide treatment group(group S), a single dose of streptozotocin were abdominally injected to establish the diabetic rat models. Each animal in sulodexide treated group was addition-ally fed with sulodexide of 10 mg/(kg·d) for 12 weeks,while the remained group (group C and D) were given normal water in the same period. After 12 weeks of treatment, fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting plasma insulin (FINS), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), triglyceride (TG), Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), serum creatinine rates (SCr) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured. Insulin sensitivity index(ISI) and insulin resistant index (HOMA-IR) were calculated. Results After 12 weeks, the levels of TG, LDL-C and ALT had no significant difference between group D and group S, but were higher than those in group C (P <0.05);There were no significant difference of SCr levels among the three groups. Compared with the group C, APTT, PT, TT and ISI in group D and S were significantly decreased, HOMA-IR were significantly increased (P < 0.05). APTT, PT, TT and ISI in group S had significantly increased compared with that in group D, HOMA-IR was significantly decreased in group S compared with that in group D (P < 0.01). Conclusions Sulodexide can reduce insulin resistant, improve hypercoagulability and insulin sensitiv-ity in streptozocin induced diabetic rats. The effects to blood lipid, liver and renal functions in diabetic rats are not obvious.
