Popis: Objective: Naringenin (NAR), a flavanone in citrus fruits, has been reported to have both anti-diabetic and anti-osteoporotic effects. This study aimed to explore the effect of NAR on bone homeostasis under diabetic condition. Methods: High fat diet and streptozotocin (STZ) induced type 1 diabetic (T1DM) and leptin receptor knockout (db/db) type 2 diabetic (T2DM) mice were used to evaluate NAR effects. Melbine (DMBG) was administrated as positive control. Body weight and fasting blood glucose were monitored weekly and monthly. After 8 weeks and 74 days treatment, bone mass was evaluated by microcomputed tomography (μCT) including BV/TV, Tb.N, and Tb.Th, as well as histological and histomorphometric detection. Bone resorption rate indicated by C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTIX) and N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) was examined by ELISA assays. Results: NAR treatment reduced body weight and blood glucose in both diabetic models, and had better hypoglycemic effect than DMBG at early stage. High fat diet and STZ-treated mice lost while db/db mice gained bone mass. NAR improved bone microarchitecture by regulating the related parameters to the similar levels as the control. Osteoblast activity was little affected, but osteoclast function was decreased in NAR-treated STZ mice. Consistently, NAR reduced bone resorption rate which was increased in both diabetic models. Conclusion: NAR exerts an anti-diabetic effect by lowering elevated level of blood glucose, regulating impaired bone mass, and reducing overactivated bone resorption rate in T1DM and T2DM conditions. Naringenin has a potential to prevent diabetes induced impairment in bone.
