Resumo
O diabetes mellitus resulta de uma complexa interação entre vários graus de susceptibilidade genética e fatores ambientais. Sua principal característica é a secreção deficiente de insulina (hipoinsulinemia), ou ainda a baixa sensibilidade dos tecidos periféricos a este hormônio, fatos que resultam em uma elevação característica nos níveis de glicose no sangue (hiperglicemia). O diabetes tipo I caracteriza-se pela hipoinsulinemia, sendo acompanhado por alterações metabólicas e bioquímicas, além de prejuízos morfológicos em diversos tecidos, como o fígado e o intestino grosso. A prática regular de exercícios é reconhecida como um fator preventivo muito importante para os casos de diabetes, aumentando a sensibilidade e resposta à insulina e diminuindo sua necessidade em indivíduos diabéticos. A fim de analisar estas alterações, ratos Wistar foram distribuídos em quatro grupos: controle sedentário (CS), controle treinado (CT), diabético sedentário (DS) e diabético treinado (DT). O diabetes foi induzido por aloxana monoidratada Sigma. Amostras de fígado e intestino grosso foram coletadas para a realização de técnicas histoquímicas e ultraestruturais. Desta forma, este estudo teve como objetivo principal investigar os prejuízos provenientes do desenvolvimento do diabetes nos tecidos analisados e, a partir desta análise, avaliar os efeitos do treinamento físico na amenização ou prevenção destas alterações. Resultados histoquímicos bastante expressivos foram encontrados no fígado, principalmente em relação ao acúmulo de glicogênio e de fibras colágenas perisinusoidais nas células hepáticas que, após a realização de treinamento físico moderado, atingiram níveis mais próximos dos considerados normais. Os resultados ultraestruturais demonstraram grandes alterações na presença de mitocôndrias e retículo...
Diabetes mellitus results from a complex interaction between various degrees of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Its main feature is a deficient insulin secretion (hypoinsulinemia), or the low sensitivity of peripheral tissues to this hormone, facts that result in a characteristic elevation of blood glucose levels (hyperglycaemia). Type I diabetes is characterized by hypoinsulinemia, and is followed by metabolic and biochemical alterations, besides morphological impairment in various tissues, such as liver and large intestine. Regular exercise is recognized as an important preventative factor in cases of diabetes, increasing sensitivity and response to insulin and decreasing its necessity in diabetic individuals. In order to analyze these changes, Wistar rats were divided into four groups: Sedentary Controls (SC), Trained Controls (TC), Sedentary Diabetics (SD) and Trained Diabetics (TD). Diabetes was induced by monohydrate alloxan Sigma. Liver and large intestine samples were collected for carrying out histochemical and ultrastructural techniques. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the damage proceeding from the development of diabetes in the analyzed tissues and evaluate, from this analysis, the effects of physical training in alleviating or preventing these changes. Very promising histochemical results were found in the liver, especially related to the accumulation of glycogen and perisinusoidal collagen fibers in liver cells that, after performing moderate physical training, reached levels near those considered normal. Ultrastructural results showed important variations in the presence of mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum in the cytosol of diabetic rats’ hepatocytes. Slight recovery was observed as result of exercise. Large intestine, in turn, presented significant histochemical changes in the amount of mucin secreted, besides alterations...
