P734Research on the mechamism of renal sympathetic denervation in the treatment of insulin resistance

Abstract

Abstract Background Insulin resistance is the main pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. In order to better control the blood glucose of diabetic patients, the key is to improve the insulin sensitivity. With the in-depth study on the mechanism of insulin resistance, sympathetic nerve is an important part of it, but the specific mechanism is not clear. Objective This experiment aims to observe the effects of RDN on insulin resistance and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in spontaneous diabetes ZDF rats. Methods 6 SPF healthy male ZDF (fa/+) rats were selected as control group, 12 healthy males ZDF (fa/fa) rats were randomly divided into sham group and RDN group. In the sham group and RDN group, the rats were treated with sham operation or bilateral renal sympathetic denervation respectively. Insulin sensitivity was tested in all rats with Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp test 2 weeks after RDN. The skeletal muscle ATPsyn, COXIV, UCP3 and SOD2 were tested by Western-blot method. Results The result showed that 2 weeks after RDN, the blood glucose level of the RDN group decreased significantly (P=0.000) when compared with the sham group. The glucose infusion rate (GIR) in sham and RDN group decreased significantly when compared with the control group (P=0.000). After RDN, the GIR in RDN group increased significantly. ATPsyn, COXIV which were the key enzyme of oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle mitochondria decreased significantly in the sham and RDN group when compared with control group (P=0.001). However, parameters improved dramatically after RDN (P=0.001). Table 1.

Relative results Conclusion Our results showed that RDN improved the insulin sensitivity in diabetes rats. The mechanism may be related to the decrease of oxidative stress and function improvement in skeletal muscle mitochondrial by RDN.
