Abstract

The study investigated the potential alteration in the level of insulin and adiponectin, as well as the expression of INSR and GLUT-4 in chronic restraint stress rats. Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: the control group and stress group in which the rats were exposed to one of the four different restraint stressors; 1 h, twice daily for a period of 7 days (S7D), 14 days (S14D) and 28 days (S28D). To minimize habituation, the sequence of the stressors was randomized for both the morning and afternoon sessions of the first week of exposure, and was repeated during the second week with the morning and afternoon sequences exchanged. Glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity were evaluated following the final stress exposure. ELISA were performed to assess the level of insulin and adiponectin as well as expression of INSR and GLUT4 protein in skeletal muscle. Plasma corticosterone level was also determined a marker of stress exposure.

Restraint stress for 7 days caused transient glucose intolerance, while S14D rats demonstrated increased glucose intolerance and mild insulin insensitivity. However, restraint stress for 28 days had no effect on glucose tolerance, but did cause an increase in glucose response to insulin challenge. The serum level of adiponectin was significantly (P<0>P<0>P<0>P<0>

Restraint stress caused glucose intolerance in male Sprague–Dawley rats but becomes abated with prolonged exposure arguably due to the blunted insulin signalling in skeletal muscle
