title: Effect of high dietary fat on insulin secretion in genetically diabetic Goto-Kakizaki rats.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To clarify the effects of a high fat-diet on insulin secretion from genetically diabetic beta cells, Goto-Kakizaki rats and Wistar rats were subjected to oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) after 12-week high-fat feeding.
  
  
  METHODS
  We compared Wistar and Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats fed a high-fat diet (45% fat content) for 12 weeks, measuring insulin secretion and insulin release.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Insulin secretion during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was enhanced in high-fat diet-fed Wistar rats (WF) with normal glucose tolerance. Insulin secretion in high-fat diet-fed GK rats (GF) during OGTT also was enhanced together with deteriorated glucose tolerance. Basal insulin release from the isolated perfused pancreas at 3.3 m glucose in WF was comparable to that in normal chow-fed Wistar rats (WN), but basal insulin release in GF was remarkably higher than in normal chow-fed GK rats (GN). Stimulated insulin release induced by 16.7 m glucose was remarkably increased in WF compared with WN. Total insulin release at 16.7 m glucose in both GK rat groups was similar and minimal.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  These results indicate that normal pancreatic beta-cells have the ability to secrete sufficient insulin to compensate for the insulin resistance induced by a high-fat diet. In contrast, glucose metabolism in diabetic rats after high-fat diet deteriorated partly because of insufficient insulin secretion caused by genetic defects and lipotoxicity due to chronically high FFA levels.
