title: Dietary treatment ameliorates overt diabetes and decreased insulin secretion to glucose, induced by overeating in impaired glucose tolerant mice.
abstract: Overt diabetes (NIDDM) was induced by overeating in neonatally streptozocin (60 mg/kg.BW) treated impaired glucose tolerant mice. We imposed a food restriction and a high fiber diet to evaluate the effects of dietary treatment in this NIDDM model mouse. Furthermore, insulin secretion after the dietary treatment was studied using the perfused pancreas technique. One group of IGT mice (SZ) was maintained on ordinary mouse chow during 6 to 14 weeks of age. The others received a cookie and chocolate mashed diet (C.C. diet) to induce overt diabetes during 6 to 10 weeks of age. Thereafter, the mice with induced overt diabetes were divided according to their diet treatment. The C.C. diet was continued in one group (SZC) for 4 weeks, and the others were divided into a food restriction group (SZR: 4 g/mouse/day of ordinary mouse chow, for 4 weeks) and a high fiber diet group (SZF: 20% W/W of cellulose in ordinary mouse chow, for 8 weeks). The mean caloric intake/mouse/day in SZC, SZR and SZF were 140, 80 and 98% of that in SZ, respectively. Amelioration of hyperglycemia and impaired glucose tolerance was noted in SZR and SZF. A better glycemic control was obtained in SZF with keeping a normal growth rate. On the pancreas perfusion, the insulin secretion to 30 mM glucose was improved in SZR and SZF. Furthermore, the incremental first phase peak insulin release to 30 mM glucose in SZF was significantly greater than that in SZC (SZF, 10.5 +/- 1.0 vs. SZC, 4.5 +/- 1.9 microU/min).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
