The compound betulin blood sugar reducing tablet can relieve emaciation symptoms of diabetic mice, and has slightly better effect than betulin polysaccharide and tartary buckwheat polysaccharide.
(2) Diabetic complications and kidney experiments
Male SPF-class m/m normal mice (5 weeks old) and male SPF-class db/db diabetes model mice (5 weeks old) were purchased from Kwangsi laboratory animal Co., ltd., animal license number 2018D046.
M/m mice were set as normal groups and were perfused with an equal amount of physiological saline daily.
The db/db diabetes model mice are diabetic mice which are tested for initial blood sugar after 7d of adaptive feeding, and compared with normal m/m mice, the db/db diabetes model mice are diabetic mice, so that the experimental requirements are met. Db/db mice were randomly divided into model groups and were perfused with an equivalent amount of physiological saline daily; the experimental group was filled with 100mg/kg body weight of jerusalem artichoke peptide Pep1, pep2, pep3, pep4, pep5, pep6, pep7 or Pep8 daily. Positive group, 300mg/kg metformin hydrochloride suspension per day.
Observation of mental state of mice and measurement of body weight and blood sugar the physiological state, hair and feed intake, water intake and excretion of the mice were observed, the body weight of the mice was measured weekly, and the initial body weight after 7d of adaptive feeding of the mice and the body weight data after 2 and 4 weeks of gastric lavage were selected for statistical analysis.
The normal group of mice were in an active state in their physiological spirit, had normal feed intake and water intake, and had normal excretion (data not shown here). The feed intake and water intake of the model group are obviously increased, and the excretion is large, so that constipation appears in the middle and later stages of the experiment. Slow and slow movement, rough hair, even partial hair falling, moist padding and need to be replaced once in 3 days. The physiological states of the positive group and the experimental group (Pep 1-Pep 5) are improved, and the hair is smooth and glossy.
The tail vein of the mice was bled, the blood glucose value of each week was measured by a glucometer and blood glucose test paper, and the initial random blood glucose of the mice, and fasting blood glucose values of 8 hours after 2 and 4 weeks of gastric lavage were selected for data analysis. The results are shown in Table 9. The fasting blood glucose levels were significantly elevated in both the model group at weeks 2 and 4 relative to the normal group. Compared with the model group, the fasting blood glucose content of the mice in the positive group and the experimental group (Pep 1-Pep 5) is obviously reduced, and the fasting blood glucose content of the mice in the experimental group (Pep 1-Pep 5) at the 2 nd week and the 4 th week is lower than that of the mice in the positive group. Therefore, the jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 provided by the invention not only can reduce the fasting blood glucose content of db/db diabetic mice, but also has better effect than metformin hydrochloride.
Table 9db/db diabetes test groups mice fasting blood glucose levels (mM)
Table 10 shows the weight data of mice from each group of db/db diabetes experiments. The results showed that the mice in the model group had significantly higher body weights at weeks 2 and 4 than the normal group. The body weight of mice in the positive group and the experimental group (Pep 1 to Pep 5) was significantly reduced relative to the model group, and the body weight of mice in the experimental group (Pep 1 to Pep 5) was lower than that in the positive group at weeks 2 and 4, respectively. Therefore, the jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 provided by the invention not only can relieve obesity caused by diabetes of db/db diabetic mice, but also have better effect than metformin hydrochloride.
Table 10db/db diabetes experiment groups mice weights (g)
Determining the organ index of the mice facilitates assessment of hypoglycemic activity of jerusalem artichoke peptides on diabetic mice. After 4 weeks of experiment, all animals were anesthetized by ether inhalation, blood was taken from the eyeballs and placed in a 2mL centrifuge tube, the mice were sacrificed after neck removal, and after 30min, the animals were centrifuged at 4℃and 3000 Xg for 10min to collect the supernatant serum. Weighing kidney, liver, spleen and heart, and quickly freezing viscera and serum with liquid nitrogen at-80deg.C for subsequent experimental analysis. Organ index = mouse organ weight/mouse weight x 100%.
As can be seen from Table 11, the indices of the organs of the mice in the normal group were significantly lower than those in the model group, indicating that diabetes caused different degrees of organ lesions in the db/db mice. The kidney index was significantly lower in both the positive and experimental groups (Pep 1-Pep 5) than in the model group. The jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 provided by the invention can protect organs of db/db diabetic mice and reduce the harm effect of diabetic complications to the mice.
Table 11db/db diabetes experiments groups of mice organ indices
Renal malondialdehyde is lipid peroxide, free radicals in the body of diabetics are excessive, oxidation reaction is severe, and the content of malondialdehyde is high, so that the renal malondialdehyde is one of indexes of kidney injury. Measurement of renal function-related indicators 24h urine was collected after 4 weeks of treatment. Urine protein content was determined using Bradford method using Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a standard. The content of malondialdehyde in blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, blood uric acid and kidney tissue homogenates was determined using ELISA kit (Roche diagnostics products (Shanghai Co.). The measurement method of each index is strictly operated according to the instruction of the kit.
Table 12db/db diabetes mellitus experiments groups of mice kidney serum indicators
Table 12 shows the kidney serum index for each group of mice in the db/db diabetes test. Compared with the normal group, the db/db diabetic mice in the model group have obviously raised indexes. While the kidney index of both the positive and experimental groups (Pep 1-Pep 5) was significantly lower than that of the model group. The jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 provided by the invention can protect the kidney of a db/db diabetic mouse and reduce the harm effect of diabetic high glucose metabolism to the kidney of the mouse. The Jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 6-Pep 8 do not obviously reduce various kidney serum indexes of db/db diabetic mice, and do not have obvious kidney protection effect on the mice.
As can be seen from FIG. 3, the histological analysis using HE shows that the normal mice of the normal group have uniform blood cell distribution, the glomerulus and the kidney capsule are normal without obvious pathological changes, the blood cell distribution of the model group is disordered, the kidney capsule is extruded and atrophic, the basement membrane is thickened, and the mesangial region is widened, which are typical pathological symptoms of diabetic nephropathy. The diabetic mice with db/db administered with Jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 6-Pep 8 are not improved in substitution, and the diabetic mice with db/db administered with Jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 are improved in pathological symptoms of diabetic nephropathy, which shows that the Jerusalem artichoke peptides Pep 1-Pep 5 provided by the invention have an improving effect on diabetic nephropathy of the diabetic mice with db/db, play a certain protection role on kidneys, presumably because of remarkable hypoglycemic activity, reduce ROS, thereby reducing basement membrane thickening and intercellular matrix deposition caused by collagen denaturation.
