Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the difference in intestinal sugar-absorption between diet-induced obesity(DIO) and diet-induced obesity resistance(DR)rats.
MethodsThe diet-induced obesity and diet-induced obesity resistance rats models were established by feeding the rats with high-fat diet.Eight weeks after the treatment,the body weight,food intake, and food efficiency were compared between two groups.In addition,8 rats were randomly chosen for oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT)and oral D-xylose tolerance test(OXT).Glucose concentration and serum D-xylose concentration were compared at different time points before and after the administration of gavage.
Results Food intake and food efficiency of DIO rats were more than those of DR rats(417.8±33.5 kJ/day vs 379.3±40.2 kJ/day,1.5±0.1×100 g/kJ vs 1.3±0.1×100 g/kJ;
P<0.05).Area under the curve of DIO group was more than that of DR group in OGTT (16.5±1.2 mmol/L·h vs 14.6±1.5 mmol/L·h;
P<0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in the area under the curve for OXT.
ConclusionThere are differences in glucose-absorption between high-fat diet-induced obesity and high-fat diet-induced obesity resistant rats,which may play a role in the development of obesity.
