Title: Hypoglycemic mechanism of intestinal bypass surgery in type 2 diabetic rats. Author: Xie S, Wang M, Zhang B, Weng S. Journal: Sci Rep; 2021 Nov 03; 11(1):21596. PubMed ID: 34732821. Abstract: To investigate the effect of duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB) surgery on postoperative blood glucose in type 2 diabetic rats, and further explore possible mechanisms for the effect of surgical treatment of type 2 diabetes. Forty rats with type 2 diabetes were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n = 10 rats per group), which subsequently underwent DJB, new biliopancreatic diversion (NBPD) or duodenal-jejunal exclusion (DJE) surgery or a sham operation (SHAM). Fasting glucose, 2-h postprandial glucose and blood lipids were measured, and the mRNA in liver and intestinal tissue for bile acid receptor (FXR), as well as the FXR protein expression in the liver tissues were determined. Postprandial blood glucose and fasting TG and FFA in the DJB and NBPD groups were significantly lower than those in the SHAM group and preoperative (p < 0.05) at 8 weeks postoperation. Liver FXR protein was expressed at significantly higher in the DJB and NBPD groups than in the other two (p < 0.05), and the intestinal FXR mRNA in the DJE group were highest. DJB up-regulates the expression of bile acid receptors in the liver and down-regulates those receptors in the intestinal tract via biliopancreatic diversion. This process reduces TG levels, and subsequently any lipotoxicity to islet cells to produce a hypoglycemic effect.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
