Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has been steadily increasing each year. As a result, the prevalence of complications from diabetes has also increased. Present study found that supplementation of gelatin hydrolysate (GH) attenuated an increase in blood glucose level in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The detail mechanism by which GH regulates the blood glucose level in diabetic rats remains unclear. However, it appears that the repression of inflammation in pancreatic islets by GH has influenced, at least in part, the attenuation of increase in blood glucose level. GH has potential as an effective ingredient of enteral nutrition products for diabetic patients.
