| Research Abstract |
To explore the significance of GPR40 in leptin deficiency, GPR40 mRNA expression was assessed in pancreatic islets of genetically obese leptin-deficient rats (Lepmkyo/mkyo), which were established by our laboratory. Body weight of Lepmkyo/mkyowas increased an age-dependent manner. Hypertriglyceridimia and glucose intorelance were worsened in parralell with the progression of obesity. After the age of ~52 weeks, body weight of Lepmkyo/mkyowas decreased and they dead around the age of 60 weeks. Liver lipid concentration and blood transaminase were markedly increased in Lepmkyo/mkyo, suggesting involvement of liver failure in the death of Lepmkyo/mkyo. Fasting insulin levels were markedly increased in Lepmkyo/mkyo, and beta cell area was markedly increased. In contrast, early insulin response after glucose load was markedly decreased. GPR40 mRNA levels were decreased in pancreatic islets of Lepmkyo/mkyo, suggesting possible involvement of GPR40 in insulin secretion in leptin deficient obesity-associated glucose intolerance.
