Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Increase of blood sugar and inflammatory cytokine was observed in the iron-deficient GK rats, model animal of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It was supposed that these phenomena were caused by the lipid peroxidation in the iron-deficiency. In this study, we examined the effect of dietary β-carotene on suppression of inflammatory cytokine and improvement of the glucose tolerance in the iron-deficient GK rats. In the first experiment, serum adiponectin increased, and in the second experiment, serum resistin was decreased by dietary β-carotene administration. However, it was very difficult to confirm plasticity about the alteration of these adipocytokine. These results suggested that the change of beta-carotene dose participated in serum insulin-resistant factor complicatedly. To inflammatory cytokine and blood sugar, the effect of dietary β-carotene was not observed, and it was guessed that a factor except peoxidation derived impaired glucose tolerance in the iron-deficient GK rats.
