Abstract:
BACKGROUND:At present, there are few reports about the non-human primate models of type 2 diabetes mel itus in domestic and abroad, so it lacks of standardized production methods and evaluation criteria.
OBJECTIVE:To establish a safe and effective type 2 diabetes mel itus model of rhesus monkey and evaluation method.
METHODS:Twelve rhesus monkeys were randomly assigned to experimental group (n=9) and control group (n=3). Rhesus monkeys in the experimental group were fed with high-glucose and high-fat diet for 4 weeks, and intraperitoneal y injected with 30 mg/kg streptozotocin to establish models of type 2 diabetes mel itus. Rhesus monkeys in the control group were fed with an equal volume of physiological saline. At 12 weeks after injection, peripheral blood serum was col ected to measure fasting blood glucose, lipids, insulin, and C-peptide levels. Intravenous glucose tolerance test and C-peptide release test were used to detect pancreatic gland and pancreatic islet function. Histopathological examination was performed in pancreas, kidney and liver.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) 12 weeks after injection, fasting blood glucose, triglycerides, and total cholesterol levels were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). Insulin and C-peptide levels were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). (2) The area under the curve for intravenous glucose tolerance test was increased in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). The area under the curve for C-peptide response test was significantly reduced in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). (3) The pathological sections of pancreas, kidney and liver showed typical pathological changes of diabetes in the experimental group. (4) It is confirmed that we got high achievement about rhesus monkey models of type 2 diabetes mel itus made by high-glucose and high-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin. It is a feasible, safe and effective method.
