摘要
The effects of insulin (5 U/day subcutaneously for 60 days) and aminoguanidine (25 mg./kg./day via gavage for 60 days) on collagen concentration, resistance to enzymatic digestion with Pronase E, and the accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products in bladder tissue were studied in male streptozotocin-diabetic rats. The characteristic autofluorescence of glycosylated connective tissue was used to quantitate advanced glycosylation end products. Fluorescence was measured in digests of bladder tissue and expressed as fluorescence/mu-g. of hydroxyproline. Correlation to alterations in bladder function was made by studying in-vivo bladder micturition and in-vitro length-tension relations of bladder strips. Five groups of age-matched rats were studied: 1) controls, 2) controls treated with aminoguanidine, 3) diabetics, 4) diabetics treated with aminoguanidine, and 5) diabetics treated with insulin. The collagen concentration and the amount of collagen released by enzymatic digestion decreased while the connective tissue autofluorescence increased in bladders from diabetic rats. Insulin was able to prevent all of the observed changes while aminoguanidine protected against changes in accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products and resistance to enzymatic digestion but not against changes in collagen concentration. Stretchability of the bladder as measured by length-tension relations of bladder strips was inversely proportional to the amount of collagen, and therefore increased in diabetic rats. Diabetes of two months duration resulted in altered micturition pattern (increased fluid consumption, diuresis, micturition frequency, and average volume per micturition). Alterations in in-vivo and in-vitro bladder function were prevented by insulin treatment but not by aminoguanidine treatment. We have shown that the collagen component of the bladder wall changes in amount as well as in quality in the diabetic rat. Our data suggest that the amount, rather than the properties of collagen, is important for bladder function.
