OBJECTIVE: Increased circulating level of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is associated with menopausal oestrogen deficiency. We therefore hypothesised that the combined oral contraceptive (COC) with spironolactone (SPL) improves insulin resistance (IR) in ovariectomised (OVX) rats by reducing circulating PAI-1.
METHODS: Twelve-week-old female Wistar rats were divided into sham-operated (SHM), OVX, OVX+SPL (0.25 mg/kg), COC (1.0 µg ethinylestradiol and 5.0 µg levonorgestrel) and OVX+COC+SPL rats treated with COC and SPL daily for eight weeks. IR was assessed by homeostatic model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR).
RESULTS: Data showed that OVX rats had a higher HOMA-IR value that is associated with increased visceral adiposity, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), TG/HDL-C, plasma insulin, GSK-3, corticosterone and decreased 17β-oestradiol. However, these effects were attenuated in OVX+COC, OVX+SPL and OVX+COC+SPL rats compared to OVX rats. OVX rats had lower PAI-1 than SHM rats, whereas the beneficial effect on IR and other parameters by COC or SPL was accompanied with increased PAI-1. Improvement of IR and other parameters with combined COC and SPL in OVX rats was accompanied with reduced PAI-1.
CONCLUSION: Taken together, COC or SPL improves IR independent of PAI-1, whereas a combination of COC and SPL in OVX rats ameliorates IR in a PAI-1-dependent manner.
