Chemical induction is the standard model of diabetes in rodents and also widely used in large animal models of non\u2010human primates and minipigs. However, uncertain efficacy, the potential of beta\u2010cell regeneration, and relevant side effects are debatable aspects particularly in large animals. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate a surgical approach of total pancreatectomy combined with splenectomy for diabetes induction in an exploratory study in Goettingen minipigs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Total pancreatectomy was performed in Goettingen minipigs (n = 4) under general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Prior to surgery, a central venous line was established for drug application and blood sampling. After median laparotomy, splenectomy was performed and the lobular pancreas was carefully dissected with particular attention to the duodenal vascular arcade. Close monitoring of blood glucose was initiated immediately after surgery by standard glucometer measurement or continuous glucose monitoring systems (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CGMS<\/jats:styled-content>). Exogenous insulin was given by multiple daily subcutaneous (s.c.) injections or via insulin pump systems (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CSII<\/jats:styled-content>). Complete endogenous insulin deficiency was confirmed by intravenous glucose tolerance test (iv<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GTT<\/jats:styled-content>) and measurement of c\u2010peptide. For establishing a suitable regimen for diabetes management, the animals were followed for 4\u20136 weeks.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Following pancreatectomy and splenectomy, the animals showed a quick recovery from surgery and initial analgetic medication and volume substitution could be terminated within 24 h. A rapid increase in blood glucose was observed immediately following pancreatectomy necessitating insulin therapy. The induced exocrine insufficiency did not cause any clinical symptoms. Complete insulin deficiency could be confirmed in all animals by determination of negative c\u2010peptide during glucose challenge. The two regimen of insulin treatment (multiple daily injections (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MDI<\/jats:styled-content>) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CSII<\/jats:styled-content>)) were both feasible with respect to acceptable glycemic control whereas<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CSII<\/jats:styled-content>was considerably advantageous in comfort and popularity for both animals and care takers.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Surgical pancreatectomy in combination with splenectomy to facilitate access to the pancreas is a feasible model for efficient diabetes induction in minipigs. The procedure itself and postoperative animal care could be performed without complications in this exploratory study. Nevertheless, this approach requires well\u2010equipped infrastructure, experienced and skilled surgeons and anesthesiologists and dedicated animal care takers. The impact of total pancreatectomy in combination with splenectomy on the digestive and immune system must be considered in the design and definition of end points of experimental diabetes and transplantation studies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/xen.12255","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,10]],"date-time":"2016-08-10T05:02:54Z","timestamp":1470805374000},"page":"405-413","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Diabetes induction by total pancreatectomy in minipigs with simultaneous splenectomy: a feasible approach for advanced diabetes research"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Sophie","family":"Heinke","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barbara","family":"Ludwig","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Paul Langerhans Institute Dresden of Helmholtz Centre Munich at University Clinic Carl Gustav Carus of TU Dresden Faculty of Medicine DZD\u2010German Centre for Diabetes Research Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Center for Regenerative Therapies Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Undine","family":"Schubert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Janine","family":"Schmid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Kiss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anja","family":"Steffen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Paul Langerhans Institute Dresden of Helmholtz Centre Munich at University Clinic Carl Gustav Carus of TU Dresden Faculty of Medicine DZD\u2010German Centre for Diabetes Research Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Bornstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine III University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Paul Langerhans Institute Dresden of Helmholtz Centre Munich at University Clinic Carl Gustav Carus of TU Dresden Faculty of Medicine DZD\u2010German Centre for Diabetes Research Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Center for Regenerative Therapies Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"},{"name":"Diabetes and Nutritional Sciences Rayne Institute King's College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefan","family":"Ludwig","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral\u2010, Thoracic\u2010 and Vascular Surgery University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Technische Universit\u00e4t Dresden Dresden Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejphar.2015.02.054"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1476-5381.2012.01911.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","first-page":"40","article-title":"Anomer\u2010equilibrated streptozotocin solution for the induction of experimental diabetes in mice (Mus musculus)","volume":"49","author":"De la Garza\u2010Rodea AS","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Am Assoc"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.tp.0000189712.74495.82"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","first-page":"584","article-title":"Ueber die Anwendung von Novalgin in der Schweinepraxis","volume":"40","author":"Schmidt W","year":"1985","journal-title":"Tierarztl Umsch"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","unstructured":"Ellegaard G\u00f6ttingen Minipigs.
