Abstract
The effects of bariatric surgeries (sleeve gastrectomy and ileal transposition) on the dynamics of changes in ghrelin level were studied in rats with severe decompensated type 2 diabetes mellitus under conditions of glucose challenge as well as on the size of myocardial infarction in these animals. Diabetes was modelled by high fat diet and a single administration of streptozotocin (25 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). Both bariatric surgeries significantly decreased glucose-induced ghrelin level in the blood of rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus, which attested to an increase in the tissue sensitivity to ghrelin. Sleeve gastrectomy resulted in a decrease in the size of myocardial infarction in diabetic rats, which was calculated as the ratio of the necrosis zone to the zone of the risk of myocardial infarction. Ileal transposition had no effect on this parameter. Our data can be used as the basis for optimization of treatment approaches when using bariatric surgery in the treatment of patients with severe forms of type 2 diabetes mellitus with a high risk of cardiovascular diseases.
