RESEARCH ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INSULIN RESISTANCE AND SUSCEPTIBILITY OF OBESITY / 营养学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the differences between diet induced obesity (DIO) and diet induced obesity resistance (DIO-R) during insulin resistance (IR) in rats. Method Male SD rats were fed by high-fat diet 1 (45 % fat kJ) after adaptation. At 3rd week, rats were divided into 3 groups according to their body weight: rats belonging to the middle 1/3 of their body weights were the control group, and was fed by control diet (10 % fat kJ). The heaviest 1/3 and the lightest 1/3 belong to DIO and DIO-R group, respectively, and were fed by high-fat diet 2 (60 % fat kJ). Five rats were selected randomly from each group and sacarified at 3rd, 6th, 8th, 10th and 11th week. The energy intake, body fat contents, fasting blood glucose (FBG), serum lipid, serum insulin, insulin sensitive index(ISI)and leptin of rats were monitored dynamically. Results DIO rats were significantly different from DIO-R and control rats in energy intake, body fat content, FBG, lipid, serum insulin and leptin. Conclusion Fed by the same high-fat diet, DIO rats are more sensitive than DIO-R rats to become IR.
