Increased β-Cell Responsivity Independent of Insulin Sensitivity in Healthy African American Adults

Abstract: Background Primary insulin hypersecretion predicts type 2 diabetes (T2DM) independent of insulin resistance. Enhanced β-cell glucose responsivity contributes to insulin hypersecretion. African Americans (AAs) are at a higher risk for T2DM than non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs). Whether AAs manifest primary insulin hypersecretion is an important topic that has not been examined systematically. Objective To examine if nondiabetic AA a… Show more

“… 68 This may be explained by different responses to glucose in BA men and women, with studies consistently finding greater hyperinsulinemia in women. 55 69–72 We note with interest that in a recent investigation by Armiyaw et al 15 it was only the African-American women who contributed to ethnic differences observed in beta cell responsivity, not the men. As their study was neither designed nor powered to examine interactions by sex, Armiyaw et al 15 rightly advised caution when interpreting these findings.…”

Further work examining the interactions between sex and ethnicity in BA groups is warranted.…”

“…Participants were admitted for a 3-night visit to the National Institutes of Health Metabolic Research Unit. After an overnight fast, S I was evaluated by the EHC (glucose disposal rate [GDR]) and insulin-modified FSIVGTT (S I -MM) on different days in random order as previously described ( 4 ). The rate of glucose disposal ( M ), a measure of S I was defined as the average of the glucose infusion rate during the steady state (GDR in milligrams per minute) corrected for estimated metabolic body size.…”

“…The steady-state period of the clamp was defined as a ≥20-min period, 90 min after the initiation of the clamp, where the coefficient of variation for plasma glucose and glucose infusion rate was <5%. Prior to EHC, basal hepatic glucose production (HGP) and hepatic insulin resistance index were measured by using a stable isotope tracer ( 4 ). Because of the interruption in pharmacy compounding services and access to tracers, we could conduct tracer studies in only 43 individuals (BA n = 21; NHW n = 22).…”
