TLDR
The present study represents that the combination of HFD-fed and low-dose STZ-treated rat serves as an alternative animal model for type 2 diabetes simulating the human syndrome that is also suitable for testing anti-diabetic agents for the treatment of type 1 diabetes.

A Review of Islet of Langerhans Degeneration in Rodent Models of Type 2 Diabetes

TL;DR: The importance, advantages, and limitations of rodent models of TTDM in relation to the histopathological changes that characterize islet degeneration are reviewed and placed into the context of changes in islet histological appearances.

Multiple Low-Dose Radiation Prevents Type 2 Diabetes-Induced Renal Damage through Attenuation of Dyslipidemia and Insulin Resistance and Subsequent Renal Inflammation and Oxidative Stress

TL;DR: Exposure to whole-body low dose radiation significantly prevented type 2 diabetes-induced kidney injury characterized by renal dysfunction and pathological changes, and the protective mechanisms of LDR are complicated.

Antidiabetic effects of hesperidin and naringin in type 2 diabetic rats.

TL;DR: Results showed that hesperidin and naringin have potential antihyperglycemic and antidyslipidemic efficacies as well as cardiac function improving action in HFD/STZ-induced type 2 diabetic rats.

Effects of antidiabetic drugs in high-fat diet and streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced type 2 diabetic mice.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a high-fat diet combined with nicotinamide and streptozotocin injection induces a diabetic mouse model that replicates the metabolic characteristics of human type 2 diabetes.

PPAR-gamma: adipogenic regulator and thiazolidinedione receptor.

TL;DR: How advances in the understanding of nuclear receptor function, particularly the docking of cofactors in a ligand-dependent fashion, should lead to improved drugs that utilize the PPAR-gamma system for the treatment of insulin resistance is discussed.
