Abstract:
Diabetic rat model accompanied by insulin resistance was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozocin.Following metformin treatment for 5 weeks,ELISA was used to detect the level of plasma secreted frizzled-related protein (SFRP) 5,and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of p-JNK in the liver.insulin resistance(IR) and p-JNK were significantly increased in diabetic group compared with the control group (P<0.05),while plasma SFRP5 level was reduced (P<0.01).After metformin treatment,the plasma SFRP5 levels were significantly increased (P<0.05),while IR and p-JNK was decreased (P<O.05).Metformin may ameliorate insulin resistance via upregulating the SFRP5 expression of diabetic rats.
