Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is characterized by being an inflammatory disease, with systemic, chronic, multimetabolic involvement. Its physiopathogenic mechanism is characterized by glyco-lipotoxicity, chronic oxidative stress, which cause hypoinsulinemia due to the death of beta cells or their transdifferentiation. Objective: To determine the effect of an enriched environment on metabolic markers and pancreatic histology in an experimental model of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methodology: Metabolic markers were measured during the 16-month trial. In older adult Wistar rats at the end of the experiment, the animals were two years old. At the end of the experiment, the pancreas of the animals were studied histologically. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and paired t test (p≤0.05).
