[Influence of sucrose and many fats on carbohydrate metabolism and insulinemia by the rat (author's transl)].

Rats are fed during one month with normal diet or diet enriched with 25% of many fats. It is no change of the hyperglycemia curve with the addition of 25% sucrose to these diets but 1 degree by male on the normal diet or on the diet enriched with corn oil the insulin discharge is higher; it is no change with the diet enriched with beef fat or with M.C.T. 2 degrees by the female the insulin discharge is higher with all the diets.

The insulin-like properties of vanadium: a curiosity or a perspective for the treatment of diabetes?

Vanadium is a trace metal that has raised increasing interest in diabetology since the discovery of its insulin-like properties in vitro and in vivo. This brief article is a review of the most recent data concerning the cellular mechanisms by which vanadium salts stimulate glucose metabolism. The beneficial effects of vanadium on glucose homeostasis of animal models of insulinopenic or insulin-resistant diabetes are discussed. The perspectives that the use of vanadium opens for the treatment of diabetes are also considered, in the light of the potential toxicity of the element.
