AI Summary & Key Takeaways

AI Insight
⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

Albino rats were divided into three groups.Group I was control, group II and III were assigned as lowand high doses of tartrazine-exposed groups respectively.Blood samples were collected to estimate the glucosehomeostasis and insulin, amylase and lipase activity, andglucose tolerance along with morphology of pancreas.Results: The results showed that tartrazine at higherdoses, increased blood sugar (230.830 ± 0.940 mg/dL) andinsulin (0.395 ± 0.012 ng/mL) levels as compared to thatof control.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

Abstract

Background: Food industry is extensively using tartrazinehowever, influence of tartrazine-exposure on pancreasremains to be elucidated.Materials and methods: This study was designed to evaluate the effect of tartrazine on pancreas and glucose homeostasis in rats. Albino rats were divided into three groups.Group I was control, group II and III were assigned as lowand high doses of tartrazine-exposed groups respectively.Blood samples were collected to estimate the glucosehomeostasis and insulin, amylase and lipase activity, andglucose tolerance along with morphology of pancreas.Results: The results showed that tartrazine at higherdoses, increased blood sugar (230.830 ± 0.940 mg/dL) andinsulin (0.395 ± 0.012 ng/mL) levels as compared to thatof control. HOMA-IR value of tartrazine-exposed rats wassignificantly high (1.450 ± 0.090) as compared to that ofcontrol. Moreover, the serum levels of amylase and lipasewere also increased significantly in tartrazine-exposedrats. Correspondingly, morphology of pancreas was alsofound to be changed in tartrazine-exposed rats.Conclusion: These results demonstrated that tartrazinehas a critical influence on glucose homeostasis. This evidently reveals that tartrazine has damaging effects onpancreas and enduring the exposure of tartrazine couldpossibly result in the disturbance of normal endocrinefunctioning of pancreas.

Özet

Amaç: Gıda endüstrisi yaygın olarak tartrazin kullanıyor, ancak tartrazine maruziyetinin pankreas üzerindeki etkisi açıklığa kavuşmuş durumda. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma, tartrazinin farelerde pankreas ve glukoz homeostazisi üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmek için tasarlanmıştır. Albino sıçanları 3 gruba ayrıldı. Grup I kontrol grubuydu, grup II ve III sırasıyla düşük ve yüksek dozlarda tartrazine maruz bırakıldı. Kan örnekleri glikoz homeostazisini ve insülin, amilaz ve lipaz aktivitesini ve glikoz toleransını ve pankreas morfolojisini tahmin etmek için toplandı. Bulgular: Sonuçlar daha yüksek dozlarda tartrazinin, kontrol grubuna kıyasla kan şekerini (230.830 ± 0.940 mg/dL) ve insülini (0.395 ± 0.012 ng/mL) artırdığını göstermiştir. Tartrazine maruz kalan sıçanların HOMA-IR değeri, kontrolünkine kıyasla anlamlı derecede yüksekti (1.450 ± 0.090). Ayrıca tartrazine maruz bırakılan sıçanlarda serum amilaz ve lipaz seviyeleri de önemli ölçüde artmıştır. Buna karşılık olarak, tartrazine maruz bırakılan sıçanlarda pankreas morfolojisinin de değiştiği bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Bu sonuçlar, tartrazinin glukoz homeostazı üzerinde kritik bir etkiye sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Bu, tartrazinin pankreas üzerinde zararlı etkilere sahip olduğunu ve tartrazin maruziyetini sürdürdüğünün, muhtemelen pankreasın normal endokrin fonksiyonunun bozulmasına neden olabileceğini ortaya koymaktadır.
