Abstract
Obesity is a relevant health public issue and is the main factor for glucose metabolism dysregulation and diabetes progression; however, the differential role of a high-fat diet or high sugar diet consumption on glucose metabolism and insulin processing is not well understood and has been scarcely described. Our research aimed to analyze the effects of chronic consumption of both high sucrose and high-fat diets on glucose and insulin metabolism regulation. Wistar rats were fed with high-sugar or high-fat diets for 12 months; after that, fasting glucose and insulin levels were measured along with a glucose tolerance test (GTT). Proteins related to insulin synthesis and secretion were quantified in pancreas homogenates, whereas islets were isolated to analyze ROS generation and size measurement. Our results show that both diets induce metabolic syndrome, linked with central obesity, hyperglycemia, and insulin resistance. We observed alterations in the expression of proteins related with insulin synthesis and secretion, along with diminution of Langerhans islets size. Interestingly, the severity and number of alterations were more evident in the high-sugar diet than in the high-fat diet group. In conclusion, obesity and glucose metabolism dysregulation induced by carbohydrate consumption, led to worst outcomes than high-fat diet.

Abstract
Identification of new modifications and the association with diet patterns are essential for the prevention of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To address this problem, we feed rats with high caloric diets based on high sucrose (HSD) and high fat (HFD) and analysed metabolic and mitochondrial alterations. Both diets induce moderated obesity and fat accumulation in the liver after 8, 10 and 12 months of diet. The HSD induces both hyperleptinemia and hyperinsulinemia, as well as up-regulation of transcription factors SRBEP1 and PPARγ along slight increase nitrosylation of proteins and increased mitochondrial fission. In contrast, HFD induced hyperleptinemia without changes in neither insulin levels nor oxidative stress, SREBP1, PPARγ, or mitochondrial dynamics. In conclusion, chronic consumption of high sucrose content diets induces more pathological and metabolic alteration in liver in comparison with consumption of high-fat content diets, although both induces obesity and liver steatosis in these animal models.

Effects of Non-Nutritive Sweeteners on Energy Intake, Body Weight and Postprandial Glycemia in Healthy and with Altered Glycemic Response Rats. Foods 2021; 10:foods10050958. [PMID: 33924861 PMCID: PMC8146401 DOI: 10.3390/foods10050958] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2021] [Revised: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 04/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) consumption on energy intake, body weight and postprandial glycemia in healthy and with altered glycemic response rats. Animals on normal diet (ND) or high-fat diet (HFD) were divided to receive NNS (sucralose, aspartame, stevia, rebaudioside A) or nutritive sweeteners (glucose, sucrose) for 8 weeks. The NNS were administered at doses equivalent to the human acceptable daily intake (ADI). A test using rapidly digestible starch was performed before and after treatments to estimate glycemic response. No effects of NNS consumption were observed on energy intake or body weight. Sucrose provoked an increased fluid consumption, however, energy intake, and weight gain were not altered. In ND, no effects of NNS on glycemic response were observed. In HFD, the glycemic response was increased after sucralose and stevia when only the final tolerance test was considered, however, after including the baseline test, these results were no longer significant compared to glucose. These findings provide further evidence suggesting that at the recommended doses, NNS do not alter feeding behavior, body weight or glycemic tolerance in healthy and with altered glycemic rats.
