Introduction. Nowadays, most researchers consider the lungs to be one of the main targets of diabetes mellitus. According to the literature data, pulmonary surfactants, particularly surfactant protein B play the leading role in the pathogenesis of respiratory diseases.
The aim of the study – to establish the pathogenetic role of surfactant protein B (SP-B) in the formation of lung pathology in animals with streptozotocin-induced diabetes.
Research Methods. The experiments were performed on 88 white male Wistar rats weighing 170–210 g. Animals were divided into three groups: 1 – intact (n=10); 2 – control (n=40); 3 – experimental (n=38) with a model of diabetes mellitus, which was reproduced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin by “Sigma” company (USA), diluted in 0.1 M citrate buffer with a pH of 4.5, at a rate of 60 mg/kg body weight. The control group of animals received an intraperitoneal injection with an equivalent dose of 0.1 M citrate buffer solution with a pH of 4.5. SP-B content in blood serum was determined by Rat enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (Elabscience, the USA) 14, 28, 42, and 70 days after streptozotocin injection.
Results and Discussion. Biochemical studies of blood serum showed an increase in SP-B levels in animals with streptozotocin-induced diabetes at all stages of the research. In particular, serum SP-B levels increased by 8.5 % in 14 days, 37.0 % in 28 days, 54.2 % in 42 days and 74.5 % in 70 days compared to the control group of animals.
Conclusions. During the entire study period, streptozotocin-induced diabetes is accompanied by an increase of surfactant protein B levels in the blood serum which plays a key role in the pathogenesis of lung injury in this pathology.
