Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of total flavonoids of Jasminum nudiflorum (TFJN) on pancreatic islet function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model mice and its possible mechanism. METHODS: Totally 10 Kunming mice were included in blank group and given normal diet. Other 75 mice were included in model group and given high-lipid and high-glucose diet for 4 weeks combined with streptozotocin once via sublingual vein to induce T2DM model. After modeling, the mice were randomly divided into model group, metformin hydrochloride group (positive control, 350 mg/kg), TFJN low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (100, 200, 400 mg/kg, by crude drug), with 10 mice in each group. Blank group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intragastrically; administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically; once a day, for consecutive 6 weeks. The level of fasting dynamic blood glucose was measured after modeling (before medication) and 2, 4, 6 weeks after medication. The histomorphological characteristics of pancreatic tissue were observed by HE staining. The contents of serum insulin (INS), insulin cell antibody (IAA), TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, CRP, leptin (LP) and adiponectin (ADPN) were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: Compared with blank group, islet atrophy, blurred boundary, insufficient cytoplasm and smaller volume of pancreatic tissue were observed in model group. The fasting dynamic blood glucose level (at different time points after medication), the contents of IAA, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, CRP and LP were increased significantly, while the contents of INS and ADPN were decreased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with model group, above symptoms of pancreatic tissue in administration groups were relieved, and the fasting dynamic blood glucose level (2, 4, 6 weeks after administration in metform in hydrochloride group, 4, 6 weeks after administration in TFJN groups), the contents of IAA, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, CRP and LP were decreased signifi- cantly, while the contents of INS and ADPN were increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: TFJN can repair the damaged pancreas of mice with T2DM, reduce the level of blood glucose, and improve the sensitivity of the body to insulin, the mechanism of which may be associated with reducing the secretion of inflammatory factors.
