The effects of chronic high sucrose feeding for 1 month on in vivo and in vitro insulin secretion and on in vivo insulin action were studied in rats with non-insulin-dependent diabetes. As compared to the standard diet, the high sucrose diet induced an increase of the in vivo insulin response to an

โฆ Synopsis
The present study correlates the insulin resistance seen in the myocardium of rats with streptozotocin-induced non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with insulin secretory defects, hyperglycaemia and disease duration. Two-day-old male Wistar rats were given a bolus injection of streptozotocin (0.09 mg/g body weight) which caused glucose intolerance when these animals reached adulthood. Although these rats developed a progressive resistance to the actions of insulin in the heart this did not correlate with the development of glucose intolerance. However, a correlation was seen with a shift in insulin secretory response from hyper- to hypo-secretion which developed between 6 and 14 months of age. Moreover, this shift in secretory pattern can be associated with the onset of a cardiac mechanical malfunction.
