摘　　要：AIM:To investigate retrograde tracer transport by gastric enteric neurons in insulin resistant mice with low or high glycosylated hemoglobin(Hb).METHODS:Under anesthesia,the retrograde tracer fluorogold was superficially injected into the fundus or antrum using a microsyringe in KK Cg-Ay/J mice prior to onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM;4 wk of age),at onset of T2DM(8 wk of age),and after 8,16,or 24 wk of untreated T2DM and in age-matched KK/HIJ mice.Six days later,mice were sacrificed by CO 2 narcosis followed by pneumothorax.Stomachs were removed and fixed.Sections from fundus,corpus and antrum were excised and mounted on a glass slide.Tracer-labeled neurons were viewed using a microscope and manually counted.Data were expressed as the number of neurons in short and long descending and ascending pathways and in local fundus and antrum pathways,and the number of neurons in all regions labeled after injection of tracer into either the fundus or the antrum.RESULTS:By 8 wk of age,body weights of KKAy mice(n=12,34±1 g) were heavier than KK mice(n=17,29±1 g;F(4,120)=4.414,P=0.002] and glycosylated Hb was higher [KK:(n=7),4.97%±0.04%;KKAy:(n=6),6.57%±0.47%;F(1,26)=24.748,P<0.001].The number of tracer labeled enteric neurons was similar in KK and KKAy mice of all ages in the short descending pathway [F(1,57)=2.374,P=0.129],long descending pathway [F(1,57)=0.922,P=0.341],local fundus pathway [F(1,53)=2.464,P=0.122],local antrum pathway [F(1,57)=0.728,P=0.397],and short ascending pathway [F(1,53)=2.940,P=0.092].In the long ascending pathway,fewer tracer-labeled neurons were present in KKAy as compared to KK mice [KK:(n=34),302±17;KKAy:(n=29),230±15;F(1,53)=8.136,P=0.006].The number of tracer-labeled neurons was decreased in all mice by 16 wk as compared to 8 wk of age in the short descending pathway [8 wk:(n=15),305±26;16 wk:(n=13),210±30;F(4,57)=9.336,P<0.001],local antrum pathway [8 wk:(n=15),349±20;16 wk:(n=13),220±33;F(4,57)=8.920,P<0.001],short ascending pathway [8 wk:(n=14),392±15;16 wk:(n=14),257±AIM: To investigate retrograde tracer transport by gastric enteric neurons in insulin resistant mice with low or high glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb). METHODS: Under anesthesia, the retrograde tracer fluorogold was superficially injected into the fundus or antrum using a microsyringe in KK Cg-Ay/J mice prior to onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM; 4 wk of age), at onset of T2DM (8 wk of age), and after 8, 16, or 24 wk of untreated T2DM and in age-matched KK/HIJ mice. Six days later, mice were sacrificed by CO2 narcosis followed by pneumothorax. Stomachs were removed and fixed. Sections from fundus, corpus and antrum were excised and mounted on a glass slide. Tracer-labeled neurons were viewed using a microscope and manually counted. Data were expressed as the number of neurons in short and long descending and ascending pathways and in local fundus and antrum pathways, and the number of neurons in all regions labeled after injection of tracer into either the fundus or the antrum. RESULTS: By 8 wk of age, body weights of KKAy mice (n = 12, 34 ± 1 g) were heavier than KK mice (n = 17, 29 ± 1 g; F (4, 120) = 4.414, P = 0.002] and glycosylated Hb was higher [KK: (n = 7), 4.97% ± 0.04%; KKAy: (n = 6), 6.57% ± 0.47%; F (1, 26) = 24.748, P < 0.001]. The number of tracer labeled enteric neurons was similar in KK and KKAy mice of all ages in the short descending pathway [F (1, 57) = 2.374, P = 0.129], long descending pathway [F (1, 57) = 0.922, P = 0.341], local fundus pathway [F (1, 53) = 2.464, P = 0.122], local antrum pathway [F (1, 57) = 0.728, P = 0.397], and short ascending pathway [F (1, 53) = 2.940, P = 0.092]. In the long ascending pathway, fewer tracer-labeled neurons were present in KKAy as compared to KK mice [KK: (n = 34), 302 ± 17; KKAy: (n = 29), 230 ± 15; F (1, 53) = 8.136, P = 0.006]. The number of tracer-labeled neurons was decreased in all mice by 16 wk as compared to 8 wk of age in the short descending pathway [8 wk: (n = 15), 305 ± 26; 16 wk: (n = 13), 210 ± 30; F (4, 57) = 9.336, P < 0.001]
