Relationship between Urinary Liver-Type Fatty Acid-Binding Protein (L-FABP) and Sarcopenia in Spontaneously Diabetic Torii Fatty Rats

Abstract: Background. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a known risk factor for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and sarcopenia in older patients. Because there may be an interaction between DKD and sarcopenia, the aim of the present study is to investigate the relationship between urinary levels of liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) and sarcopenia using a novel rat model of T2D. Methods. Male spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) fatty rats (n=5) at 16 weeks of age were used as an animal model of T2D. Age- and sex-matched… Show more

“…According to an animal model for the analysis of diabetes-related sarcopenia [24], disruption to insulin/ insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)-Akt signaling due to insulin resistance and low serum IGF-1 levels reduced muscle protein synthesis and provoked abnormalities in muscle strength and mass. In addition, phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase due to reduced cellular uptake of glucose leads to suppression of muscle protein synthesis [25]. The results of these studies suggest that elderly patients with diabetes would be less trainable for muscle strength compared with their healthy counterparts.…”

“…Muscle strength was measured using the forelimb grip test with a grip strength meter (MK-380CM/FM; Muromachi Kikai, Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). The average of 3 measurements of muscle strength per animal per time point was used for the comparative analysis [18].…”

“…Urine samples were collected for the measurement of urinary markers. Under inhalation, anesthesia using 2% isoflurane, serum and kidney and leg muscle tissue samples were collected after 16 h of starvation at age 16 weeks [18]. The extracted kidneys were weighed and cut into pieces for various downstream analyses.…”

“…On the other hand, a recent meta-analysis and another clinical study did not show that GLP-1RA contributed to DR aggravation [10,11]; thus, the in uence of GLP-1RA on DR is uncertain in type 2 diabetes. Because the progression of DR may depend on various metabolic disorders in addition to hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes, we investigated the effect of liraglutide, a GLP-1RA, on DR in a rat model of type 2 diabetes using spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) fatty (SDT.Cg-Lepr fa /JttJcl) rats, which resemble the human pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes with hypertension, obesity, and hyperlipidemia [12,13].…”
