Abstract
Studies on rats with experimental diabetes induced by administration of alloxan showed that transcranial electrostimulation of endorphinergic brain structures stimulates the regeneration of damaged beta-cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans. This was identified on pancreatic sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin. De novo formation of small islets was noted, as evidenced by their regeneration from progenitor cells. After transcranial electrostimulation, islet beta-cells stained by the Gomori method showed recovery of granularity - a sign of insulin production. Application of an immunoenzyme method demonstrated recovery of blood insulin levels, the dynamics of increases in which showed a highly significant negative correlation with a decrease in blood glucose. These data led to the conclusion that the antihyperglycemic effect of transcranial electrostimulation in experimental alloxan diabetes results from reparative regeneration of beta-cells in islets of Langerhans with recovery of their insulin-producing function.
