Differential effects of insulin therapy on hepatic and peripheral insulin sensitivity in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes

Abstract: Hepatic glucose production and metabolic clearance rate of glucose were measured using (3-3H) glucose at steady state, basally and during two sequential 2 h insulin (25 and 40 mU . kg -1 . h -1)/glucose (2 and 3 mg. kg -1 . min -1) infusion periods. Eight diabetic subjects were studied before and after 1 week of twice daily insulin therapy; six control subjects matched for age, weight and degree of obesity were also studied. In the diabetic patients, pre-treatment hepatic glucose production was 20.0 +/- 2.2, 9… Show more

“…In other words, it has been, perhaps tacitly, assumed that the MCR of glucose is directly proportional to plasma insulin concentrations and independent of glucose concentrations, [e.g. [43][44][45][46][47]. The observation was made however both in man [48][49][50] and in the dog [51], that the relationship between the rate of glucose utilization, Rd, and glucose concentrations at a fixed insulin level, although linear, did not pass through the origin.…”

“…In the short term, during insulin infusions the liver has been found to be more sensitive to increasing insulin levels than the periphery (1)(2)(3)(4), suggesting that it is the initial site at which glycemia may be regulated. Evidence as to relative efficiency of portal and peripheral delivery of insulin in the regulation of both glucose and other aspects of metabolism is not entirely consistent.…”

“…Poorly controlled Type 1 (26,54), Type 2 (27,47), and experimentally induced (3,23) diabetes are characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, absolute and/or relative hypoinsulinemia, raised hepatic glucose production (HGP), elevated circulating FFA and glucagon levels, and severe insulin resistance, particularly in SkM (48,54). Moreover, in response to acute mild to moderate exercise (ϳ40 -60% V O 2 max ), suboptimally controlled hypoinsulinemic diabetic subjects exhibit metabolic abnormalities, including reduced exercise-stimulated Rd tissue [Rd tissue (ex)] and oxidation rates from both plasma glucose and SkM glycogen (29,34,57), and increased exercise-stimulated oxidation rates from both plasma FFA and SkM fat (34,51).…”
