[Various changes in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism and the state of the islands of Langerhans in female rabbits after long-term feeding with food rich in carbohydrates and ovariectomy].
Experiments were conducted on 21 female rabbits. Prolonged excessive feeding with food rich in readily assimilated carbohydrates (bisquits) started at immature age caused hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the insular apparatus of the pancreas, particularly in ovariectomy. The average blood sugar level on fasting stomach displayed a significant reduction in ovariectomized female rabbits. Some female rabbits displayed signs of "exhaustion" of beta-cells of the islets of the pancreas, with the development of latent diabetes mellitus in one of them. Prolonged excessive feeding with food rich in readily assimilated carbohydrates led to the intensification of atherogenesis, most pronounced in the animals with signs of "exhaustion" of beta-cells of the islets of the pancreas.
