观察匙羹藤对胰岛素抵抗(IR)KKAy小鼠脂肪组织中蛋白激酶B表达及磷酸化的影响以及调节机制。方法:将18只胰岛素抵抗KKAy小鼠按体质量随机分为模型组(DM)和匙羹藤水提物组(GS),并选取9只C57BL/6J小鼠为正常对照组(NC),连续灌胃给药8周。实验结束后取血测定空腹血糖(FPG),空腹血清胰岛素(Fins),并计算胰岛素敏感指数(ISI),测定附睾脂肪组织中磷酸激酶依赖的激酶1(PDK1)、蛋白激酶B(PKB)、P-PKB(Ser473),P-PKB(Thr308)蛋白相对含量,及磷酸酶和张力蛋白同源物基因(PTEN)mRNA相对含量。结果:与DM组相比,GS组小鼠FPG、Fins降低,ISI升高,P-PKB(Ser473)蛋白相对含量及其磷酸化水平升高,P-PKB(Thr308)蛋白相对含量升高,PDK1蛋白相对含量降低,PTEN mRNA表达量降低。结论:匙羹藤可通过增加脂肪组织中P-PKB(Ser473)蛋白相对含量,增强Ser473位点磷酸化水平,以及增加P-PKB(Thr308)蛋白相对含量激活PKB,进而改善IR。
This article was aimed to study effects and mechanisms of Gymnema sylvestre on protein kinase B (PKB) and its phosphorylation in adipose tissues of KKAy mice which were mainly characterized by insulin resistance (IR). A total of 18 KKAy mice were randomly divided into the diabetes model (DM) group and Gymnema sylvestre (GS) group according to body weight levels. And 9 normal C57BL/6J mice were used as the normal control (NC) group. Intragastric administration of medication was given to mice for 8 weeks. At the end of the experiment, all animals were tested for fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and fasting insulin level (Fins) for evaluation of insulin sensitivity index (ISI). Expressions of phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1), PKB, P-PKB (Ser473), P-PKB (Thr 308) in adi-pose tissues of epididymis were determined. The expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) mRNA was also determined. The results showed that compared with the DM group, the GS group showed lower FPG and Fins,
