Streptozotosin ile deneysel olarak diyabet oluşturulan ratlarda kromun biyokimyasal etkileri
Karbonhidrat, lipid ve protein metabolizmalarında önemli fonksiyonları olan krom, memeliler için temel besin maddelerinden biridir. Krom pikolinat (Cr(pic)3), insüline duyarlı hücre membranlarında etki göstererek insülin etkinliğini reseptör düzeyinde arttırmaktadır. Bu makalede deneysel olarak streptozotosin (STZ) ile Tip 1 diyabet oluşturulan ratların içme sularına 80 μg/kg dozunda krom pikolinat eklenerek serum glikoz, paraoksonaz, insülin, HbA1C düzeyleri ve serum lipid profili üzerine etkilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. 30 erkek Wistar Albino rat 4 gruba ayrılmış, diyabet ve diyabet+krom grubuna diyabet oluşturulmak üzere (65 mg/kg) tek doz STZ intraperitonal uygulanmıştır. Diyabet oluşumunu takiben 5 hafta boyunca diyabet+krom ve krom grubundakilerin içme sularına 80 μg/kg dozunda krom pikolinat suda çözünerek eklenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre HbA1C düzeyleri diyabet ve diyabet+krom grubundakilerde anlamlı derecede yüksek bulunurken (P
The biochemical effects of dietary chromium in experimental diabetic rats with streptozotocin
Chromium is the main dietary supplement for mammals which has important functions at carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolisms. Chromium picolinate (Cr(pic)3) may improve insülin sensivity by enhancing intracelluler insülin receptor. In this study we investigated the effects of chromium picolinate at experimental diabetic rats with streptozotocin (STZ). With this purpose serum glucose, insuline, paraoxonase, lipid and HbA1C levels were examined. Thirty male Wistar Albino rats were used which divided into 4 groups. Diabet and diabet+chromium groups were injected STZ intraperitoneally (65 mg/kg). After diabet is formed, Cr(pic)3 was added to drinking water of diabet and diabet+chromium groups (80 μg/kg) for five weeks.. Control and chromium groups had lower serum HbA1C levels than the other groups (P<0.001), but diabet+chromium had lower results than diabet group. Serum paraoxonase levels of diabet group were also lower than the other groups (P<0.01). It means that the activity of paraoxonase is still high in diabet+chromium group in spite of diabet. Insulin levels of diabetic+chromium group were higher than diabetic group which means that chromium may have an effect that increases stimulation of insulin on β cells. As conclusion, chromium is the most searched leading element related with insülin and stimulates insülin receptors or enhances the secretion. In suggestion, it can be supplemented on the diets of diabetic patients.
