Effect of Subtotal Pancreatectomy of Female Mice on the Embryo and Offspring = 암컷 생쥐의 췌장 부분절제가 배아와 신생자에 미치는 영향

국문 초록 (Abstract)

산모의 당뇨병은 조산과 함께 광범한 선천성 기형을 야기한다고 알려져 있다. 고혈당이 원인으로 제시되었지만 알려진 것은 별로 없다. 당뇨병의 모델로서 췌장을 부분절제한 동물의 배아와 신생자를 조사하였다. 1) 췌장을 90% 절제한 어미로부터 태어난 신생자는 정상 신생자보다 생존률이 낮았지만, 살아남은 신생자의 경우에 생후 6주까지 체중을 조사하였을 때 암수 모두 정상적인 신생자와 비슷하였다. 간 조직을 조사하였을 때, 췌장을 절제한 어미로부터 태어난 신생

It is known that maternal diabetes induces a premature delivery and a congenital malformation. Although it was suggested that hyperglycemia is a main cause, little has been known. The effects of subtotal pancreactomized animal as a diabetic model on the embryo and the offspring were investigated. 1) Although survival rate of offsprings from the 90% pancreactomized female was lower than that of control, body weight of the survived offsprings was similar to that of control until 6 weeks after birth. When the liver was investigated, abnormal tissue was observed in both female and male offsprings from the pancreactomized mother. The level of major urinary protein(MUP) that is synthesized in the liver and secrets into urine was decreased in both female and male, supporting the liver abnormality. 2) In the pancreactomized female, size of the Langhan's island was increased and the liver also was observed abnormal. However, blood glucose level of the pancreactomized mother was not different from that of control. The low body weight and survival rate of offsprings from the overexpressed mice was very similar to those of the offsprings from diabetic mother. Thus when the mother itself was investigated after DNA injection, blood glucose level in the overexpressed mice was not different from that of control although size of the Langhan's island was decreased. Taken together, subtotal pancreactomy affected the offspring and embryo and influenced deeply the mother itself. However glucose level of the mother was not changed during investigation. It suggested that the relationship between the diabetic mother and embryo through offspring is very complex.
