Are experimental protocols an authentic simile of human diabetes?

For the study of diabetes, several methodological strategies use animal models. Such methodologies involve surgical techniques, diet modifications, some genetic manipulations and specific toxic drugs. The experimental production of diabetes in animal models use the administration of alloxan or strep...

Contreras, Carlos M. experimental models diabetes alloxan streptozotocin hyperglycemia modelos experimentales diabetes aloxana estreptozotocina hiperglucemia For the study of diabetes, several methodological strategies use animal models. Such methodologies involve surgical techniques, diet modifications, some genetic manipulations and specific toxic drugs. The experimental production of diabetes in animal models use the administration of alloxan or streptozotocin and these drugs produce irreversible damage to pancreatic -cells. However, its use is associated to a ketosis high mortality rate due to the acute damage of pancreatic cells. The aim of this review consisted in the analysis of the pharmacological diabetes production protocols as well as other available strategies, in order to elucidate which is potentially the ideal protocol that emulates human diabetes. Diabetes is a progressive and chronic process, in which most of the clinical alterations are a long-term consequence of micro and macrovascular alterations. Therefore, it is convenient to establish a difference between the effects of acute hyperglycemia, with those effects observable when hyperglycemia is present over the long-term in order to reach enough analogies between the animal experimental model with the human diabetes syndrome, through the use of laboratory and clinical indicators commonly employed for the diagnoses and management of human diabetes. Para el estudio de la diabetes se dispone de diversas estrategias metodológicas en modelos animales, tales como, técnicas quirúrgicas, modificaciones dietéticas, incluso manipulación genética y la administración de fármacos específicos, por su toxicidad. En animales, la diabetes experimental se logra con el uso de fármacos, como la aloxana o la estreptozotocina, los cuales producen daño irreversible en las células-pancreáticas, aunque causan una alta mortalidad, debido a la cetosis asociada al daño agudo de estas células pancreáticas. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar los protocolos farmacológicos y otras estrategias disponibles, para determinar si la diabetes experimental realmente emula la diabetes humana. La diabetes es un proceso progresivo y crónico, en el que la mayor parte de las alteraciones clínicas son consecuencia, en el largo plazo, de alteraciones micro y macrovasculares. Por ello, es conveniente diferenciar entre los efectos de una hiperglucemia aguda, con aquellos que se observan cuando la hiperglucemia se prolonga a lo largo del tiempo, a fin de establecer analogías, entre el modelo experimental animal, con el síndrome diabético humano, mediante datos de laboratorio y de tipo clínico, de uso habitual en el diagnóstico y manejo de la diabetes humana.
