摘要
Objective\ To study the influence of soybean fibers on blood sugar, blood_lipid metabolism, and histomorphology in mice models with diabetes mellitus (DM). Method\ After normal mice and mice with Streptozocin (STZ)_induced DM were fed with forage containing a certain amount of soybean fiber (SF) for 5 weeks, blood sugar and blood lipid were determined, and morphological changes of hepatic and nephritic tissues were observated. Result\ The results of 5_week experiment had shown: 1. In normal mice fed with SF, the blood sugar level was decreased (P<0.05). There were no obvious changes in serum total cholesterol (TC) and the triglyceride (TG). The high_density_lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL_C) level was increased significantly (P<0.05); 2. Among DM mice, blood sugar was decreased considerably (P<0.001), TC and TG also decreased noticeably (P<0.05), HDL_C increased clearly (P<0.05); 3. SF has a protective role to the liver and kidney of DM mice. Conclusion\ It is suggested that SF has the function of decreasing blood sugar, blood_lipid and improving their metabolism, and of protecting liver and kidney of DM mice.
