Diabetic gastroparesis, a common complication of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), presents a significant treatment challenge. FoxiangSan is emerging as a potential therapy. FoxiangSan is a traditional Chinese medicine formula with the potential for treating diabetic gastroparesis by modulating gut microbiota and cAMP/PKA signaling pathways. This study explores the mechanisms behind FoxiangSan's effects on T2DM-induced gastroparesis, focusing on its impact on gut microbiota and the cAMP/PKA pathway. A rat model of type 2 diabetic gastroparesis was established through a high-fat diet and streptozotocin (STZ) injection, and the effects of FoxiangSan were assessed. Additionally, protein expression related to the cAMP/PKA pathway was examined, and FoxiangSan's influence on gut microbiota was studied using 16S rRNA sequencing. FoxiangSan significantly alleviated hyperglycemia, improved gastric pathology in rats with gastroparesis, enhanced the expression of 5-HT4, cAMP, PKA, and pPKA in the gastric antrum, and rebalanced gut microbiota. FoxiangSan demonstrates the therapeutic potential for T2DM-associated gastroparesis by modulating the cAMP/PKA pathway and gut microbiota. |
