Streptozotocin Induced Diabetes

According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus occupy a significant niche in the structure of diseases with high disability and mortality impact and pose major healthcare and social issues. It should be stressed that 50-80% of fatal cases in patients with diabetes are associated with cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine the histostructural characteristics and to perform morphometric analysis of the components of the aortic wall and its hemomicrocirculatory bed of the aorta in 6 and 8 weeks of streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus. The material for the histological study included the sections of the wall of the ascending aorta, the aortic arch, and the descending aorta taken from 26 sexually mature white male rats weighing 100 - 160 g. For morphometric examination, a series of photos of the aortic wall was taken using a Meiji MT4300 LED microscope with an x40 objective, x10 ocular. The measurements were carried out using the Image J software. The development of micro - and macroangiopathies in experimental animals with 8-week streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus was histologically confirmed. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference in all morphometric parameters of the components of the aortic wall and the vessels of its hemomicrocirculatory bed after 8 weeks of experimental diabetes as compared with the normal values, control values, and in values obtained at the 6-week period of the experiment. The study has demonstrated clear dependence between the severity of destructive changes in the aortic wall and sections of its hemomicrocirculatory bed and the duration of the experiment.

Background. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, as well as coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral artery disease (probably caused by atherosclerosis), are the leading cause of disability and mortality in people with diabetes. Objective. The purpose of our study was to determine the histostructural features and morphometric analysis of the components of the aortic wall and its hemomicrocirculatory bed after 2 and 4 weeks of streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus. Methods. The samples for the histology were the sections of the wall of the ascending part, the aortic arch, and the descending part of the aorta of 26 mature white male rats weighing 100 - 160 g. For morphometric examination, a series of images of the aortic wall was taken using a Meiji MT4300 LED microscope with an x40 objective, x10 eyepiece. Results and conclusion. The measurements were carried out using the ImageJ software. The development of micro- and macroangiopathies in experimental animals with 8-week streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus was histologically proved. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference of all morphometric parameters of both - the components of the aortic wall and the vessels of its hemomicrocirculatory bed after 4 weeks of experimental diabetes in comparison with the norm, control, and the 2-nd week of the experiment. An explicit dependency of the severity of destructive changes in the wall of the aorta and links of its hemomicrocirculatory bed of vessels on the duration of the experiment was determined.

Streptozotocin Induced Diabetes

The objective of the research was to determine the morphological features of the duodenal wall of animals within 14-56 days of developing streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus using light optical microscopy. Materials and Methods. The research was carried out on 40 white nonlinear adult male rats. Diabetes mellitus was simulated by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (Sigma, USA) at a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight. The material was taken from the duodenum on the 14th, 28th and the 56th days after the onset of experimental diabetes mellitus. For histological study, the preparations were made using the conventional method, which included the staining of sections with hematoxylin and eosin. Results. Streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus was experimentally found to lead to dystrophic changes in the epithelial components of the duodenal mucosa from the 14th day of developing. There were observed a shortening of the villi of the mucous membrane and a lack of distinctness of striated border contours on the apical surface of epitheliocytes. Between the connective-tissue fibers of the lamina propria of the mucosa and thin-walled vessels, the cellular elements, including mainly macrophages, lymphocytes, were found. There was a shortening of the villi, edema and histiolymphocytic infiltration of the villous stroma 28 days after developing experimental diabetes mellitus. The epithelium covering was discontinuous; numerous areas of desquamation were found at the apex of the villi. Fifty-six days after developing experimental diabetes mellitus, the destruction and desquamation of the epithelium of the villi and crypts were observed. The surface of the duodenal mucosa smoothed down due to the shortening and flattening of the villi (indicating their atrophy), while the crypts elongated and their depth increased. Conclusions. Histological study of the duodenal wall of diabetic animals showed pronounced desquamation at the apex of the villi, destructive and dystrophic changes in the surface epithelium, edema and increased cellular infiltration of the lamina propria of the mucosa. Thus, in diabetes mellitus, structural changes in the duodenal wall of rats are characterized by the dystrophic processes, which can be considered as the morphological reflection of enteropathy.

Cardiac Necrosis

Resistance to isoproterenol-induced cardiac necrosis (IPRO) was compared in rats exposed to two types of hypoxia (i.e., hypobaric and anemic). IPRO was induced by two consecutive, subcutaneous injections of isoproterenol (80 mg/kg) at 24-h intervals. The animals were killed on the third day and the severity of the lesion was evaluated on a 0 (no damage) to 4 (severely damaged) scale. White male rats (HA) were exposed in a barometric chamber to a simulated altitude of 7,000 m (307 mmHg) for 4 h/day for 24 days. Two groups of control rats were kept at sea level; one group (SLA) was the same age and one group (SLW) was the same weight as the altitude-exposed rats. The HA rats were significantly more resistant to IPRO with a mean necrogenic rating of 1.8 compared to 3.3 for the SLA and SLW rats. Infant rats (AA) were made anemic by feeding full-cream milk and glucose for 100 days after weaning. Two groups of control animals were fed a standard laboratory diet; one group (AC) was the same age and one group (AW) was the same weight as the AA rats. There was no significant difference in the necrogenic ratings of the AA (3.3), AC (3.5), or WC (3.7) hearts. Thus, hypobaric hypoxia affords some protection against IPRO which is not afforded by anemic hypoxia. Similarities and differences in the two hypoxias are discussed.

Nonenzymatic glycosylation of lens proteins in diabetes mellitus is one of the pathogenetic mechanisms of cataract formation. According to the results of this study, aminoguanidine, which has anti-glycation activity, inhibits cataractogenesis in experimental diabetes. Laboratory animals with streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus treated with aminoguanidine showed less clouding in the lenses, and the content of advanced glycation end products, in particular, carboxymethyllysine, in the lenses was found to be reduced compared to the same parameters in animals from the control diabetic group.

Background To compare current guidelines for diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and to identify the ones that are the most relevant for application among pregnant Bulgarian population. Methods A total of 800 pregnant women at high risk for GDM underwent 75 g oral glucose tolerance test between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation as antenatal screening. The results were interpreted and classified according to the guidelines of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG), American Diabetes Association (ADA), Australasian Diabetes in Pregnancy Society, Canadian Diabetes Association, European Association for the Study of Diabetes, New Zealand Society for the study of Diabetes and World Health Organization. Results The application of different diagnostic criteria resulted in prevalences of GDM between 10.8% and 31.6%. Using any two sets of criteria, women who were classified differently varied between 0.1% and 21.1% ( P < 0.001).The IADPSG criteria were the most inclusive criteria and resulted in the highest prevalence of GDM. There was a significant difference in the major metabolic parameters between GDM and control groups, regardless of which of the diagnostic criteria applied. GDM diagnosed according to all criteria resulted in increased proportion of delivery by caesarean section (CS). However, only ADA and IADPSG criteria identified both increased macrosomia (odds ratio, 2.36; 2.29) and CS rate. Conclusion The need for GDM screening is indisputable. In our view, the new IADPSG guidelines offer a unique opportunity for a unified national and global approach to GDM.

Currently, severe thermal injury is becoming one of the most important problems of practical medicine. Diabetes is also recognized as another global medical and social challenge of our century. The emergency situation for the treatment and prevention of the consequences of these pathologies is a consequence of the lack of a reliable theoretical basis for solving specific clinical problems regarding the course of burns, diabetes and their complications. The aim of the study is to establish the patterns of structural changes in the mucous membrane of the duodenum after burn injury of the skin of rats under conditions of experimental diabetes mellitus. The study was performed on 63 laboratory white adult male rats weighing 180-210 g, which were divided into 3 groups: intact animals, rats with skin burns and rats with skin burns on the background of diabetes. The model of experimental diabetes mellitus was reproduced by administering Streptozotocin to rats intraperitoneally once at a dose of 50 mg/kg, pre-dissolved in 0.1 M citrate buffer solution (pH=4.5). The control of the development of hyperglycemia in the experimental groups was the level of glucose in the blood 24.24±0.79 mmol/l. In the control group this index was 8.03±0.4 mmol/l. Rats with skin burns revealed destructive manifestations, which are accompanied by an active inflammatory reaction and corresponding necrotic changes, while rats with skin burns on the background of diabetes mellitus pathological processes are not just “summed up”, but in some way adaptively modified with the involvement of stress mechanisms of the endoplasmic reticulum and associated autophagy.

  The World Health Organization (WHO) recommended microscopic AFB smear examination and culture as follow-ups to the response of MDR TB therapy. Analyzed the results of microscopic AFB smear and culture conversion as well as treatment outcome in Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) patients with and without Diabetes Mellitus (DM). This is a retrospective study involved 70 MDR-TB patients with (27 patients) with DM and without DM (43 patients) who had microscopic AFB smear and culture results at the start of the follow-up therapy. This research was conducted at Labuang Baji Regional Public Hospital, Makassar, from June to July 2019, used medical records of MDR-TB patients the period of June 2016 to December 2017. The results showed that 52 out of 70 MDR-TB patients had microscopic AFB smear and culture conversion in MDR-TB with DM (21 patients) and without DM (31 patients). The duration of microscopic AFB smear conversion in MDR TB patients with DM (3.33±0.54 months) was longer than patients without DM (2.07±0.05 months), p=0.001. While in culture conversion, there was no significant difference between MDR-TB with DM (1.28±0.64 months) and without DM (1.25±0.59), p=0.648. The recovery outcome between MDR-TB with (48.1%) and without DM (48.8%) was not significantly different. However, the output of treatment failure was greater in DM (11.2%) than without DM (2.3%), although statistically, there was no significant difference (p=0.568). Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients with DM experienced slower microscopic AFB smear conversion than MDR-TB patients without DM. However, in culture, there was no significant difference in the conversion period between the two groups. MDR-TB patients, both of with and without DM, had the same chance of recovery.
