Electrical stimulation partly reverses the muscle insulin resistance caused by tenotomy

Abstract: It was shown that I5-min electrical stimulation of the rat sciatic nerve greatly increases the in vitro measured sensitivity of lactate formation, glucose transport, and glycogen synthesis to insulin, impaired by previous tenotomy. The insulin sensitivity of all these processes was, however, still below that found in the stimulated intact soleus muscle. Extending the stimulation up to 30 min did not cause any further changes in insulin sensitivity either in tenotomized or in intact muscles.

“…There is evidence that muscle electrostimulation at least partly reverses some biochemical alterations caused by denervation or tenotomy, e.g., it increases glucose uptake and glucose utilization by myocytes (17,33). It was also reported that elimination of neural activity in tenotomized muscles by simultaneous denervation can limit the loss of myofibrillar ATPase and other mitochondrial oxidative enzyme activities and reduce another metabolic changes induced by tenotomy (29).…”

“…In this study, the results showed a decrease in plasma resistin and insulin in diabetic rats treated with electrical muscle stimulation. It has been shown that electrical stimulation increases glucose transport in skeletal muscle by GLUT-4 translocation [ 37 ] , and electrical stimulation improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity [ 15 ] . In addition, 9 diabetes related genes expression changes were induced by the repetitive electrical muscle stimulation in mouse masseter [ 38 ] .…”
