Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of early embryonic mouse pancreatic tissue transplantation in the treatment of mouse experimental diabetes.Methods C57BL/6 mouse models of streptozocin-induced diabetes mellitus were established and then randomly divided into two groups:transplantation group,in which,five to seven pieces of pancreatic tissue of mice at embryonic 16.5 days were transplanted into mouse renal capsule,and sham-operated (SO) control group,in which,0.05 ml RPMI1640 culture medium was injected into mouse renal capsule.When blood glucose level of the transplantation group mouse was ≤ 11.2 mmol/L,the endocrine function of embryonic pancreatic tissue transplanted was detected by IPGTT and IPITT methods and then the transplanted graft was removed for observing the blood glucose surge.In vitro,levels of insulin secretion were measured in serum,E16.5 pancreatic tissue and graft (3.3 mmol/L and 16.7 mmol/L) glucose stimulation by ELISA.Histology and immunohistochemistry were observed before or after pancreatic tissue transplantation to detect insulin and glycagon production.Results (1) The glucose level decreased significantly in the TX group after 4-6 weeks of transplantation (13.4 ± 6.5 vs 28.9 ± 2.5,P < 0.05),and the body weight gaining (P < 0.05).Compared to SO group,glucose level decreased significantly (P < 0.001).The graft can modulate insulin secretion; (2) Insulin can be detected in E16.5 embryonic mouse.Insulin and glycagon were produced more in TX group than pretransplantated pancreatic tissue.Conclusions E16.5 embryonic mouse pancreatic tissue transplantation effectively controls serum glucose level and restore the nondiabetic pattern of weight gaining in diabetic mouse.
