阿伐他汀对亚糖尿病大鼠血糖的影响及其机制

Effect and mechanism of atorvastatin on blood glucose of mild diabetic rats

  • 摘要: 研究阿伐他汀对亚糖尿病大鼠血糖的影响及其机制。用链脲佐菌素(35mg/kg)诱发亚糖尿病大鼠,并分别用阿伐他汀(20,100 mg/kg)治疗2周后,进行葡萄糖耐量实验,测定相应的胰岛素水平;测定肝微粒体中CYP3A1/2和CYP2C9的活性,并测定肝脏和胰腺中CYP3A1/2 mRNA表达。在细胞水平考察阿伐他汀对HepG2细胞糖利用、CYP3A酶以及ROS生成的影响,并考察阿伐他汀对INS-1细胞胰岛素释放以及ROS生成的影响。结果显示,低剂量阿伐他汀可以损伤亚糖尿病大鼠的糖耐量。CYP3A、CYP2C酶活性出现轻微增加,QT-PCR结果显示肝脏和胰腺中CYP3A1/2 mRNA表达也被低剂量阿伐他汀诱导。离体实验结果表明,阿伐他汀对HepG2细胞CYP3A酶活性呈现了低剂量诱导、高剂量抑制的现象。同时,阿伐他汀还可以剂量依赖性地降低HepG2细胞的糖利用,并增加HepG2细胞ROS水平,这一作用可以被CYP3A抑制剂红霉素逆转;阿伐他汀在抑制INS-1细胞胰岛素释放的同时,也能增加INS-1细胞活性氧(ROS)含量,这种作用也可被红霉素逆转。上述结果显示,阿伐他汀加重亚糖尿病的作用可能与其诱导P450酶和ROS过度生成有关。

     

    Abstract: This study was designed to investigate the effect and mechanism of atorvastatin on blood glucose of mild diabetic rats.Mild diabetic rats were induced by ip injection of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg),and treated with 20 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg atorvastatin for 2 weeks.Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was carried out and insulin level was measured;liver microsome CYP3A1/2 and CYP2C9 activity was determined;and QT-PCR analysis was used to quantify CYP3A1/2 mRNA expression.The effect of atorvastatin on glucose consumption,CYP3A activity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) of HepG2 cell was investigated,and its effect on INS-1 cell insulin secretion and ROS formation was determined.The result showed that low dose atorvastatin (20 mg/kg)deteriorated OGTT of mild diabetic rats;however,the effect of high dose atorvastatin (100 mg/kg) was less potent.Low dose atorvastatin treatment led to an increased CYP3A and CYP2C activity.QT-PCR result also confirmed an induction of CYP3A1/2 mRNA expression by low dose atorvastatin.Atorvastatin treatment of HepG2 cells demonstrated a two-phase effect of atorvastatin on CYP3A activity.Along with decreased glucose consumption,atorvastatin increased ROS concentration in HepG2 cells.They were reversed by CYP3A inhibitor,erythromycin.Erythromycin also increased atorvastatin-impaired insulin secretion of INS-1 cells,which was accompanied by a decreased ROS formation.These results indicated that the adverse effect of atorvastatin on OGTT of mild diabetic rats could be a result of overproduction of ROS through an induction of CYP450.
