| Popis: | Female Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with streptozotocin (45 mg/kg) to induce mild diabetes (glucose, greater than 13 mM). Half of the animals received daily insulin injections to reduce hyperglycemia. After 10 weeks, sarcolemmal membranes were isolated from hindlimb muscles to study glucose transport, and the number of glucose transporters was assessed by cytochalasin-beta binding. Both glucose transport (19.2 +/- 1.6 vs. 31.93 +/- 3.29 pmol/mg protein.15 sec) and cytochalasin-beta binding (3.06 +/- 0.28 vs. 6.14 +/- 0.59 pmol/mg protein) were significantly (P less than 0.05) reduced in the diabetic untreated rats compared to control values. Daily insulin injections restored both (P less than 0.05) basal transport (33.22 +/- 3.62 pmol/mg protein.15 sec) and cytochalasin-beta binding (5.52 +/- 0.66 pmol/mg protein) to control levels. Maximum insulin stimulation (1 U/kg, iv) significantly increased (P less than 0.05) both glucose transport (30.18 +/- 3.76 vs. 96.48 +/- 4.21 pmol/mg protein.15 sec) and cytochalasin-beta binding (4.38 +/- 0.29 vs. 9.40 +/- 0.42 pmol/mg protein) in the untreated diabetic and control rats. However, the stimulation in the untreated diabetic rats only reached basal control levels, which was significantly (P less than 0.05) below the insulin-stimulated value for the controls. In the rats receiving daily insulin injections, maximum insulin stimulation increased (P less than 0.05) both glucose transport (58.67 +/- 15.24 pmol/mg protein.15 sec) and cytochalasin-beta binding (6.4 +/- 0.7 pmol/mg protein), but both transport and binding were significantly (P less than 0.05) below insulin-stimulated values for the control rats. These data show that insulin deficiency adversely affected the glucose transport system in skeletal muscle. Both basal and maximum insulin-stimulated transport and the number of transport molecules were reduced. Daily insulin treatment corrected some of the defects, but maximum insulin stimulation was still significantly below values for control animals. |
