Abstract:
Objective To establish the islet ? cell rat model by the ? cell-deleting technology.Methods Tweenty-four normal male SD rats and 12 weeks old were randomly divided into 3 groups,i.e,a normal diet group(NC,n=8),the model group 1(M1,n=8),and the model group 2(M2,n=8).The rats in M1 and M2 group were injected with 100 mg/kg and 150 mg/kg of streptozocin respectively.Five days later,the rats were sacrificed.The level of insulin(Ins)and Glucagon(Glc)in the pancreatic homogenate was measured.The tail of pancreas were obtained and fixed by Bolins liquid.Immunohistochemistry was performed to evaluate the expression of Ins and Glc in islet cells.Quantitative analysis was executed by image analyzer.Results Compared with the NC group,the total pancreas island areas of beta-cell deleting rats,M1 group and M2 group,are approximately 1/7 of normal control rats.Moreover,the percentages of beta-cell areas from total pancreas island areas decreased from 74.3% down to 5.4% and 5.2%,respectively.The Ins content in pancreas tissue homogenate of beta-cell deleting rats does not reach 3% of normal ones,While the Glc content unexpectedly increases.Less alpha cells distinguished by Glc positive dying through Immunohistochemistry are observed at periphery of pancreas islands of NC group.With beta cellsdeletion,the aggregation of alpha cells from periphery to centre of pancreas islands is found in M1 and M2 groups.Furthermore,the percentages of alpha cells area from total pancreas island areas are promoted from 16.4% to 76.5%、74.4%,respectively.Conclusion The islet ? cell rat model was established by injecting large dose STZ(100 mg/kg and 150 mg/kg).
