The Effect of Intensive Insulin Therapy on the Insulin-regulatable Glucose Transporter (GLUT4) Expression in Skeletal Muscle in Type 1 Diabetes

Studies in normal man and rodents have demonstrated that the expression of the dominant glucose transporter in skeletal muscle, GLUT4, is regulated by insulin at supraphysiological circulating levels. The present study was designed to determine whether intensified insulin replacement therapy for 24 h given to patients with Type 1 diabetes in poor metabolic control was associated with an adaptive regulation of GLUT4 mRNA and protein levels in vastus lateralis muscle. Nine Type 1 diabetic patients with a mean HbA_1c of 10.3% were included in the protocol. After intensified treatment with soluble insulin for 24 h the fasting plasma glucose concentration decreased from 20.8 ± 2.3 (SD) to 8.7 ± 2.3 mmol 1^?1 whereas the fasting serum insulin level increased from 0.06 ± 0.02 to 0.17 ± 0.09 nmol 1^?1 However, despite a 2.8-fold increase in serum insulin levels and more than a halving of the plasma glucose concentration for at least 15 h no significant alterations occurred in the amount of GLUT4 protein (0.138 ± 0.056, poor control vs 0.113 ± 0.026 arb. units, improved control, p = 0.16) or GLUT4 mRNA (96432 ± 44985, poor control vs 81395 ± 25461 arb. units, improved control, p = 0.54). These results suggest, that in spite of evidence that high insulin levels affect GLUT4 expression in muscle, changes in serum insulin within the physiological range do not play a major role in the short-term regulation of GLUT4 expression in Type 1 diabetic patients.     

Insulin release by glucose anomers in a rat model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes

Summary The effects of the and anomers of D-glucose on insulin release were studied in a rat model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes, which was induced by streptozotocin injection at 2 days of age. Glucose tolerance of the streptozotocin-treated rats at 8–10 weeks of age was mildly diabetic. Insulin release from the isolated perfused pancreas of the diabetic rats in response to 10 mmol/l -D-glucose was markedly impaired, while insulin response to 10 mmol/l -D-glucose in the diabetic pancreas was only slightly reduced as compared to that in the control pancreas.     

脂质比值与代谢综合征的关联及预测价值评价：基于多阶段横断面研究

背景 随着代谢性疾病发病率的上升,代谢综合征(MS)的预防与控制引起广泛的关注。而脂质比值是重要的筛查指标之一,与MS之间的关系成为热点研究话题。目的 基于贵州省多阶段横断面研究人群分析三酰甘油/高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(TG/HDL-C)、总胆固醇/HDL-C(TC/HDL-C)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇/HDL-C(LDL-C/HDL-C)及非高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(non-HDL-C)与MS发病风险的关联及预测价值评价。方法 回顾性选取贵州省参与2010年全国疾病监测地区慢性病及危险因素调查、2013年中国慢性病及其危险因素监测、2015年中国成人慢性病与营养监测和2018年中国成人慢性病与营养监测的21 727例自然人群为研究对象,收集研究对象的基线资料,根据是否患有MS将研究对象分为MS组(n=4 981)和非MS组(n=16 746)。绘制受试者工作特征曲线(ROC曲线)分别评价男性和女性TG/HDL-C、TC/HDL-C、LDL-C/HDL-C和non-HDL-C对MS的预测价值。通过Delong检验比较脂质比值预测MS发生的ROC曲线下面积(AUC)的差异。采用多因素Logistic回...     

Lack of influence of glucagon on glucose homeostasis after prolonged exercise in rats

Summary The significance of glucagon for post-exercise glucose homeostasis has been studied in rats fasted overnight. Immediately after exhaustive swimming either rabbit-antiglucagon serum or normal rabbit serum was injected by cardiac puncture. Cardiac blood and samples of liver and muscle tissue were collected before exercise and repeatedly during a 120 min recovery period after exercise. During the post-exercise period plasma glucagon concentrations decreased but remained above pre-exercise values in rats treated with normal serum, while rats treated with antiglucagon serum had excess antibody in plasma throughout. Nevertheless, all other parameters measured showed similar changes in the two groups. Thus after exercise the grossly diminished hepatic glycogen concentrations remained constant, while the decreased blood glucose concentrations were partially restored. Simultaneously concentrations in blood and serum of the main gluconeogenic substrates, lactate, pyruvate, alanine and glycerol declined markedly. During the post-exercise period NEFA concentrations in serum and plasma insulin concentrations remained increased and decreased, respectively, while plasma catecholamines did not differ from basal values. Muscle glycogen concentrations decreased slightly. These findings suggest that in the recovery period after exhaustive exercise the increased glucagon concentrations in plasma do not influence gluconeogenesis.     

Amiloride-blockable Ca2+-activated Na+-permeant channels in the fetal distal lung epithelium

The Na⁺ transport function of alveolar epithelium represents an important mechanism for clearance of fluid in air space at birth. I observed the activity of two types of amiloride-blockable Na⁺-permeant cation channels in the apical membrane of fetal distal lung epithelium cultured on permeable filters for 2 days after harvesting of the cells from Wistar rats of 20 days' gestation (term = 22 days). One type was a nonselective cation (NSC) channel and had a linear current/voltage (I/V) relationship with a single-channel conductance of 26.9 ± 0.8 pS (n = 5). The other type was highly Na⁺ selective (i.e. Na⁺ channel) and had an inwardly rectifyingI/V relationship with a single-channel conductance of 11.8 ± 0.2 pS (n = 5) around resting membrane potential. The NSC channel was more frequently observed (1.37 ± 0.15 per patch membrane;n = 73) than the Na⁺ channel (0.15 ± 0.40 per patch membrane;n = 73). However, the open probability of the NSC channel was smaller than that of the Na⁺ channel. Both types of the channels were activated by cytosolic Ca²⁺, however the sensitivity to cytosolic Ca²⁺ was much higher in the Na⁺ channel than in the NSC channel. Furthermore, both types of the channels were blocked by amiloride or benzamil. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) of amiloride or benzamil of the Na⁺ channel was 1–2 M, while that of NSC channel was less than 1 M. Both channels were activated by insulin.

胰岛素、可地松和已烯雌酚处理妊娠早期小鼠对其胚胎发育的影响

本文用不同剂量的胰岛素、可地松、已烯雌酚,作用于妊娠开始至80小时的昆明小鼠,然后观察胚胎早期(植入前)和胚胎晚期(妊娠18天)的胚胎数量、发育时期及其与黄体数相比成活率的变化。实验表明,用较大剂量激素处理后,早期胚胎的上述各项指标,均表现出十分明显的抑制效果。当剂量逐渐降低后,仍表现出不同程度的抑制作用,只是逐渐趋于正常。所用各种激素对晚期胚胎的影响,表现在除部分死亡外,存活者的生长和发育一直落后。说明妊娠早期小鼠体内某些激素的水平,不仅直接影响早期,而且也影响晚期胚胎的发育。     

Oxidative stress, ER stress, and the JNK pathway in type 2 diabetes

Pancreatic -cell dysfunction and insulin resistance are observed in type 2 diabetes. Under diabetic conditions, oxidative stress and ER stress are induced in various tissues, leading to activation of the JNK pathway. This JNK activation suppresses insulin biosynthesis and interferes with insulin action. Indeed, suppression of the JNK pathway in diabetic mice improves insulin resistance and ameliorates glucose tolerance. Thus, the JNK pathway plays a central role in pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and may be a potential target for diabetes therapy.
