Turnover Markers

Diabetes mellitus and estrogen deficit are known causes of osteopenia in animal models as well as in humans. In the present work, the combined effect of ovariectomy and diabetes was investigated. Diabetes was induced in ovary-intact and ovariectomized female Wistar rats with a single injection (50 mg/kg body weight, i.p.) of streptozotocin. The rats were administered insulin (I) daily or 17-β estradiol (E2) on alternate days for a period of 35 days and sacrificed. Serum calcium (Ca2+), phosphorus (P), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), vertebral ALP, collagen, and glycosaminoglycans were estimated. The levels of serum Ca2+and P increased in diabetic rats, but decreased after I or E2treatments. Serum ALP and TRAP activity increased in the ovary-intact and ovariectomized diabetic rats. Vertebral ALP activity increased in ovariectomized diabetic rats, but decreased in diabetic rats, which were treated with I or E2. In the vertebrae, TRAP activity was elevated as a result of diabetes, but this was prevented by insulin or estradiol. Diabetes induced a decrease in total collagen in the vertebrae, while I or E2treatment induced an increase. The levels of chondroitin sulphate and heparan sulphate decreased significantly in the vertebrae of both ovary-intact and ovariectomized diabetic rats, while hyaluronic acid increased. In conclusion, diabetes and ovariectomy each seem to affect the process of matrix formation and mineralization in the bone, and this is aggravated by the combination of diabetes and ovariectomy. The effects of I and E2were similar, and both hormones reversed the changes brought about by diabetes.

Streptozotocin Induced Diabetes

Diabetes mellitus type two (T2DM) is one of the most extensive diseases in the world. Herbal therapy remains a possible adjunct therapy to sustain better glycemic control and reduce complications arising from diabetes. In order to evaluate the curative impacts of olive leaf extract (OLE) on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, twenty-four Wistar male adult rats were divided into four equal groups; control, diabetic control (45 mg/kg STZ), normal rats treated with OLE (17.8 mg/kg b.wt.), and diabetic rats treated with OLE (45 mg/kg STZ + 17.8 mg/kg b.wt.). The OLE extract was investigated for in vitro antioxidant activity using the DPPH• assay. The phenolic, tannin, and flavonoid contents were determined. The activity of GPX, SOD, and GSH in RBC lysate, CAT in plasma and MDA in serum were measured. The OLE prevented the decrease in GSH and kept MDA around the normal range in the treated diabetic rats. The current study suggests that OLE might be used safely to ameliorate T2DM and its accompanying oxidative stress.

Diabetes mellitus causes hypertonicity, increased plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP), polydipsia, and polyuria. Downregulation of AVP V2 receptors may contribute to the polyuria through diminished V2 receptor-mediated free water retention. After 2 wk of streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus, the diabetic rats had raised plasma glucose, AVP, and osmolality levels (P < 0.001) compared with nondiabetic controls (Sham). Insulin treatment (4 U long-acting insulin sc, daily) partially lowered these values (P < 0.01). There was a reduction in the number of renal and hepatic V1 receptors in the diabetic and diabetic+insulin animals compared with the sham animals (P < 0.05). The receptor affinity remained unchanged. In parallel, there was a reduction in maximum AVP-activated total inositol phosphate production in the liver and kidney of the diabetic and diabetic+insulin animals compared with the sham animals (P < 0.05). The density and affinity of renal V2 receptors and AVP-stimulated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate production in the diabetic and diabetic+insulin animals were unchanged compared with the sham. These results demonstrate differential regulation of AVP receptors and suggest that downregulation of renal V2 receptors does not contribute to the polyuria of diabetes. In contrast, downregulation of V1 receptors might contribute to diminished V1 receptor-mediated biological responses to AVP seen in diabetes mellitus.
