Abstract

The change of tissue lipid levels and fatty acid compositions in alloxan-induced diabetes was studied in rats (SD, male) in order to examine the pathway of diabetic complications. Rats were injected with alloxan 20 mg/kg BW or 40 mg/kg BW to induce diabetes. In rats injected with alloxan (40 mg/kg BW), the body weight was significantly decreased, food intake and liver weight per 100 g (BW) were significantly increased, compared with other groups. The blood glucose levels were apparently elevated as about 2 times in rats injected with alloxan (40 mg/kg BW) than the other groups. The concentrations of serum total cholesterol, triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol were not significantly different among the groups. However, the levels of serum triglyceride tended to increase according to amount of alloxan injected. Liver cholesterol levels were significantly decreased in rats injected with alloxan (40 mg/kg BW) compared with other groups, but triglyceride levels of those were not significantly different among groups. Concerning the fatty acid compositions of serum, liver, kidney, spleen phosphatidylcholine, the percentage of linoleic acid in rats injected with alloxan (40 mg/kg BW) was significantly increased, while that of arachidonic acid was significantly decreased compared with the other groups. Therefore, the ratios of arachidonic/linoleic acid in tissue phosphatidylcholine tended to be low in rats injected with alloxan (40 mg/kg BW) and especially significant low levels were found in serum and spleen. Thus, it was suggested that insulin deficiency can affect on fatty acid biosynthesis and induce diabetic complications.

당뇨병의 합병증 중 지질대사성 질환으로 유도되는 대사경로를 규명하고자 6주령의 흰쥐(Sprague-Dawley) 24마리를 3군으로 나누어 4주간 chemical pure diet로 사육하였다. 당뇨병을 유발하고자 alloxan을 20 mg/kg BW 또는 40 mg BW를 매주 1회 투여하였다. 혈당치를 측정하여 당뇨증상을 확인하였으며 혈청 및 간의 지질수준과 각 조직의 지방산 조성을 측정하여 당뇨병에 의한 지질대사의 변화를 비교 검토하였다. Alloxan 40 mg 투여군에서 심한 당뇨병 유발로 체중감소가 크게 나타났으며, 식이섭취량과 간중량/100 g BW도 다른 군에 비하여 유의적으로 높았다. 혈당의 변화는 alloxan 40 mg/kg BW 투여한 군이 다른 군에 비해 약 2배정도로 높게 나타나 당뇨병이 유발되었음을 확실하게 알 수 있었다. 혈청지질에서 cholesterol 함량은 alloxan 40 mg/kg BW 투여한 군에서 다른 군보다 다소 증가된 경향을 보였다. Triglyceride도 역시 alloxan 투여군에서 높은 경향으로 나타났다. 혈청 HDL-cholesterol은 군간의 유의적인 차이가 없었으며 HDL-/total cholesterol 비율도 군간에 유의적인 차이는 없었으나, 다른 군보다 alloxan 40 mg/kg BW을 투여한 군이 다소 높은 경향이었다. 간 지질에서 cholesterol 함량은 alloxan 40 mg/kg BW 투여군이 다른 군에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다. Triglyceride 함량은 군간에 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 각 조직의 인지질 지방산 조성을 보면 alloxan 40 mg/kg BW 투여군에서 lionleic acid는 증가하고 반면 arachidonic acid는 감소되어 그 결과 arachidonic/linoleic acid의 비율이 낮은 경향을 보였으며 특히 혈청과 비장에서는 그 경향이 뚜렷하여 유의적인 차이를 나타냈다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면, 당뇨병이 유도된 흰쥐에서 간의 중량 및 혈청의 지질이 증가되었고, 조직의 인지질에서 desaturation이 억제되었으므로 그로 인하여 지질대사에 관련된 합병증이 유도되는 것으로 판단되었다.
