血糖波动对糖尿病大鼠肾小球内皮细胞和肾小管上皮细胞凋亡的影响

目的:观察血糖波动和持续高血糖对糖尿病大鼠肾小球血管内皮细胞和肾小管上皮细胞凋亡和Bax、Bcl-2表达的影响。方法:SD大鼠24只,均分为正常对照组、糖尿病持续高血糖组、糖尿病血糖波动组。采用链脲佐菌素（STZ）60 mg/kg腹腔注射诱发糖尿病，血糖波动组每天定时腹腔注射超短效胰岛素类似物诺和锐，并错时给予葡萄糖，造成1 d中血糖浓度大幅度波动模型。制模4周后，免疫组化法检测肾组织Bcl-2和Bax蛋白表达，原位缺口末端标记法（TUNEL）检测肾小球血管内皮细胞和肾小管上皮细胞凋亡。结果:糖尿病血糖波动组的肾脏凋亡细胞明显多于、肾小球Bcl-2蛋白表达少于、肾小管Bax表达明显多于糖尿病持续高血糖组。结论:糖尿病大鼠血糖明显波动可加速肾小管上皮细胞凋亡。

Effects of fluctuant high blood glucose on apoptosis in glomerular endothelial cells and renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic rats

AIM: To explore the effects of fluctuant high blood glucose and stable high blood glucose on apoptosis and the expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in glomerular endothelial cells and renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic rats. METHODS: 24 SD rats were divided into 3 groups: control group, stable high blood glucose group and fluctuant high blood glucose group. Diabetic rats were induced by intraperitoneal injection of STZ, and the fluctuant high blood glucose animal model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of aspart and glucose at different time points every day. Apoptosis was assessed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL), and immunohistochemistry was used to detect apoptosis associated gene bax and bcl-2 expression in kidney. RESULTS: After 4 experimental weeks, a significant increase in cell apoptosis, up-regulation of Bax protein expression in kidney tubular epithelial cell and down-regulation of Bcl-2 in glomerular endothelial cell in fluctuant high blood glucose rats were observed compared with stable high blood glucose rats.CONCLUSION: Fluctuant high blood glucose induces more apoptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells than that in stable high blood glucose diabetic rats.
