Abstract |
The role of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in attenuates insulin resistance (IR) in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients and the reduction of the risk of IR in their offspring, and the function of GLUT4, IRS1 and Akt2 genes expression were investigated. T2D was induced by high fat diet and 35 mg/kg of streptozotocin. The male and female diabetic rats were then divided into three groups: CD, GABA, and insulin. NDC group received a normal diet. All the animals were studied for a six-month. Their offspring were just fed with normal diet for four months. Blood glucose was measured weekly in patients and their offspring. Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), urine volume, and water consumption in both patients and their offspring were performed monthly. The hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp in both patients and their offspring was done and blood sample collected to measure Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). IRS1, Akt and GLUT4 gene expressions in muscle were evaluated in all the groups. GABA or insulin therapy decreased blood glucose, IPGTT, and HbA1c in patients and their offspring compared to DC group. They also increased GIR in patients and their offspring. IRS1, Akt and GLUT4 gene expressions improved in both patients in comparison with DC group. GABA exerts beneficial effects on IRS1 and Akt gene expressions in GABA treated offspring. GABA therapy improved insulin resistance in diabetic patients by increasing the expression of GLUT4. It is also indirectly able to reduce insulin resistance in their offspring possibly through the increased gene expressions of IRS1 and Akt.
