Hyperinsulinemia Instead of Insulin Resistance Induces Baroreflex Dysfunction in Chronic Insulin-Infused Rats

Abstract: The present results demonstrate that hyperinsulinemia but not insulin resistance is a dominant contributing factor to the development of arterial baroreflex abnormalities in this chronic hyperinsulinemic model, which may simultaneously enhance sympathetic nerve activity and possibly vagal withdrawal if insulin resistance coexisted.

“…Thus, activity within the central autonomic network may link insulin resistance to blunted BRS (37). However, experimental data obtained from a chronic hyperinsulinemic model suggest that chronic hyperinsulinemia rather than insulin resistance could contribute to baroreflex dysfunction, possibly due to insulin-mediated central effects of sympathoexcitation and vagal withdrawal (38).…”

“…Additionally, the hyperinsulinaemia or insulin resistance observed in OZRs may also affect baroreflex function. Although infusion of insulin into Sprague–Dawley rats either peripherally or centrally appears to increase baroreflex sensitivity independent of blood glucose levels (Hong & Hsieh, 2007; Pritcher et al 2008), insulin resistance can be associated with reduced transport of insulin to the brain. For example, baroreflexes are reduced in pregnancy in association with insulin resistance and decreased concentrations of insulin in the cerebrospinal fluid, and baroreflex function is restored by administration of the insulin sensitizer rosiglitazone (Daubert et al 2007).…”

“…It has been suggested to lead to autonomic dysfunction, which subsequently leads to the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (22). A rat model in which chronic hyperinsulinemia was induced showed that the chronic high levels of insulin caused tachycardia and arterial baroreflex abnormalities independent of insulin resistance (23). Chronic hyperinsulinemia has also been proposed to promote coagulation and inflammation, which have recently been implicated in the development of the cardiometabolic syndrome (24,25).…”
