Nine weeks of bedtime diazoxide is well tolerated and improves beta-cell function in subjects with Type 2 diabetes. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
AIMS: To test whether a bedtime dose of diazoxide can improve daytime beta-cell function without side-effects in Type 2 diabetes. METHODS: A double-blind randomized study was performed in 27 Type 2 diabetic subjects (17 male, 10 female) who were treated with bedtime insulin and metformin. Subjects received either bedtime diazoxide, 100 mg, or placebo for 9 weeks. Duplicate C-peptide glucagon tests were performed before and in the last days of intervention. RESULTS: No side-effects of diazoxide were detected. Treatment with diazoxide did not incur any increase in bedtime insulin. C-peptide responses to glucagon tended to increase: 0.15 +/- 0.06 nmol/l vs. -0.01 +/- 0.04 nmol/l for placebo, P < 0.06 for difference. Corresponding effects on insulin were 66.2 +/- 41.7 pmol/l for diazoxide vs. -84.2 +/- 51.5 for placebo, P < 0.03. Treatment with diazoxide decreased fasting glucagon levels by 41% vs. placebo, P < 0.03. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels were not affected, whereas levels of blood glucose post breakfast were higher during diazoxide (1.34 +/- 0.43 mmol/l, P < 0.01 vs. placebo). CONCLUSIONS: Bedtime treatment with diazoxide in Type 2 diabetic subjects on bedtime insulin and metformin has no significant side-effects, does not increase bedtime insulin supplementation, tends to ameliorate beta-cell function but fails to improve metabolic control. 相似文献

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) is strongly insulinotropic in patients with Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, whereas glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is less effective. Our investigation evaluated "early" (protocol 1) - and "late phase" (protocol 2) insulin and C-peptide responses to GLP-1 and GIP stimulation in patients with Type II diabetes. METHODS: Protocol 1: eight Type II diabetic patients and eight matched healthy subjects received i.v. bolus injections of GLP-1(2.5 nmol) or GIP(7.5 nmol) concomitant with an increase of plasma glucose to 15 mmol/l. Protocol 2: eight Type II diabetic patients underwent a hyperglycaemic clamp (15 mmol/l) with infusion (per kg body weight/min) of either: 1 pmol GLP-1 (7-36) amide (n=8), 4 pmol GIP (n=8), 16 pmol GIP (n=4) or no incretin hormone (n=5). For comparison, six matched healthy subjects were examined. RESULTS: Protocol 1: Type II diabetic patients were characterised by a decreased "early phase" response to both stimuli, but their relative response to GIP versus GLP-1 stimulation was exactly the same as in healthy subjects [insulin (C-peptide): patients 59+/-9% (74+/-6%) and healthy subjects 62+/-5% (71+/-9%)]. Protocol 2, "Early phase" (0-20 min) insulin response to glucose was delayed and reduced in the patients, but enhanced slightly and similarly by GIP and GLP-1. GLP-1 augmented the "late phase" (20-120 min) insulin secretion to levels similar to those observed in healthy subjects. In contrast, the "late phase" responses to both doses of GIP were not different from those obtained with glucose alone. Accordingly, glucose infusion rates required to maintain the hyperglycaemic clamp in the "late phase" period (20-120 min) were similar with glucose alone and glucose plus GIP, whereas a doubling of the infusion rate was required during GLP-1 stimulation. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION: Lack of GIP amplification of the late phase insulin response to glucose, which contrasts markedly to the normalising effect of GLP-1, could be a key defect in insulin secretion in Type II diabetic patients. 相似文献

The effect of metformin on Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes has been assessed with the artificial pancreas. Fourteen Type 1 diabetic patients of normal body weight received in addition to their usual insulin therapy 850 mg metformin or placebo three times a day for 4-6 weeks. The sequence was placebo-metformin in eight patients and metformin-placebo in the other six. On the last day of metformin or placebo treatment, an artificial pancreas was used for about 36 h to assess insulin requirement. There was a 25.8% reduction in insulin requirement during metformin management despite slightly lower blood glucose levels (5.25 +/- 0.20 versus 5.98 +/- 0.18 mmol/l, p less than 0.01). Maximum reduction (about 50%) occurred 2 h after both lunch and dinner. There was no nocturnal effect. A marked decrease in specific insulin binding before metformin was found (0.56 +/- 0.27% to 10(7) monocytes versus 2.82 +/- 0.75 of control subjects) and significant increase after metformin (1.36 +/- 0.36%, p less than 0.05). There were no significant changes in blood lactate, total and HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and C-peptide levels. These results show that insulin receptor binding is diminished in Type 1 diabetes, perhaps as a consequence of higher peripheral blood insulin levels and that metformin can improve binding, and so reduce the amount of insulin needed to reach euglycaemia. The insulin sparing effect is greatest after meals, and interference with intestinal absorption of sugars may also be important. It follows that metformin could be usefully administered to Type 1 diabetic patients with unimpaired liver and renal function to reduce their insulin requirement. 相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1(7-36)amide (GLP-1) possesses several unique and beneficial effects for the potential treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, the rapid inactivation of GLP-1 by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) results in a short half-life in vivo (less than 2 min) hindering therapeutic development. In the present study, a novel His(7)-modified analogue of GLP-1, N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1, as well as N-acetyl-GLP-1 were synthesised and tested for DPP IV stability and biological activity. Incubation of GLP-1 with either DPP IV or human plasma resulted in rapid degradation of native GLP-1 to GLP-1(9-36)amide, while N-acetyl-GLP-1 and N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1 were completely resistant to degradation. N-acetyl-GLP-1 and N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1 bound to the GLP-1 receptor but had reduced affinities (IC(50) values 32.9 and 6.7 nM, respectively) compared with native GLP-1 (IC(50) 0.37 nM). Similarly, both analogues stimulated cAMP production with EC(50) values of 16.3 and 27 nM respectively compared with GLP-1 (EC(50) 4.7 nM). However, N-acetyl-GLP-1 and N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1 exhibited potent insulinotropic activity in vitro at 5.6 mM glucose (P<0.05 to P<0.001) similar to native GLP-1. Both analogues (25 nM/kg body weight) lowered plasma glucose and increased plasma insulin levels when administered in conjunction with glucose (18 nM/kg body weight) to adult obese diabetic (ob/ob) mice. N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1 was substantially better at lowering plasma glucose compared with the native peptide, while N-acetyl-GLP-1 was significantly more potent at stimulating insulin secretion. These studies indicate that N-terminal modification of GLP-1 results in DPP IV-resistant and biologically potent forms of GLP-1. The particularly powerful antihyperglycaemic action of N-pyroglutamyl-GLP-1 shows potential for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

A subset of prolyl oligopeptidases, including dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP IV or CD26, EC ), specifically cleave off N-terminal dipeptides from substrates having proline or alanine in amino acid position 2. This enzyme activity has been implicated in the regulation of the biological activity of multiple hormones and chemokines, including the insulinotropic peptides glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). Targeted inactivation of the CD26 gene yielded healthy mice that have normal blood glucose levels in the fasted state, but reduced glycemic excursion after a glucose challenge. Levels of glucose-stimulated circulating insulin and the intact insulinotropic form of GLP-1 are increased in CD26(-/-) mice. A pharmacological inhibitor of DPP IV enzymatic activity improved glucose tolerance in wild-type, but not in CD26(-/-), mice. This inhibitor also improved glucose tolerance in GLP-1 receptor(-/-) mice, indicating that CD26 contributes to blood glucose regulation by controlling the activity of GLP-1 as well as additional substrates. These data reveal a critical role for CD26 in physiological glucose homeostasis, and establish it as a potential target for therapy in type II diabetes. 相似文献

AIMS: In a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study, we investigated the effect of metformin on blood glucose control and daily insulin dose in overweight patients with Type 1 diabetes. METHODS: We studied 15 C-peptide-negative patients, aged 48 +/- 12 years, with a body mass index of 31.3 +/- 2.6 kg/m(2). Each patient had a 'screening visit', followed by a 4-week 'run-in' period. This was followed by two separate 16-week 'study' (treatment) periods, separated by a 4-week 'wash-out' period. Patients received either metformin or placebo during the 'study' periods, in random order. RESULTS: HbA(1c) was significantly lower following 16 weeks of treatment with metformin (7.8 +/- 1.1%) compared with baseline (8.5 +/- 1.4%; P < 0.005) and placebo (8.6 +/- 1.2%; P < 0.005). Fasting plasma glucose, following 16 weeks of metformin treatment, was significantly lower (8.3 +/- 2.8 mmol/l) compared with baseline (12.4 +/- 3.0 mmol/l; P < 0.01) and placebo (12.6 +/- 3.4 mmol/l; P < 0.01). Compared with baseline (60 +/- 14 units), total daily insulin dose was significantly lower following the addition of metformin (50 +/- 13 units; P < 0.05) and this final total daily insulin dose in the metformin group was lower compared with placebo (58 +/- 12 units, P < 0.05). Body weight did not change following metformin or placebo treatment. CONCLUSION: Metformin can effectively improve glycaemic control and reduce the total daily insulin dose in overweight people with Type 1 diabetes. 相似文献

Aims Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) is an insulinotropic hormone and major component of the enteroinsular axis. Its therapeutic potential in human diabetes is limited by rapid degradation and inactivation by the enzyme dipeptidylpeptidase‐4 (DPP‐4). We investigated the acute effects of metformin with and without food on DPP‐4 activity in Type 2 diabetes. Methods Ten subjects with Type 2 diabetes (6 male/4 female, age 65.8 ± 2.6 years, body mass index 30.0 ± 1.2 kg/m2, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) 6.3 ± 0.2%, mean ± sem ) received metformin 1 g orally or placebo together with a standard mixed meal (SMM) in a random crossover design. Six subjects re‐attended fasting and received metformin 1 g without a SMM. Results Following SMM (n = 10), DPP‐4 activity was not suppressed by metformin compared with placebo [area under curve (AUC)0–4 h 1574 ± 4 vs. 1581 ± 8 μmol/ml/min, respectively]. Plasma glucose, insulin and active GLP‐1 were not different. However, DPP‐4 activity was suppressed with metformin following fasting compared with a SMM (n = 6) (AUC0–4 h 1578 ± 4 vs. 1494 ± 9 μmol/min, P < 0.02). Metformin serum levels were significantly lower (P < 0.001) after SMM than fasting (AUC0–4 h 350 ± 66 vs. 457 ± 55 mg/ml/min). Conclusion Metformin inhibits DPP‐4 activity in Type 2 diabetic patients in the fasting state but not when taken with a standard mixed meal. Metformin serum concentrations are lower if the drug is taken with food. These findings should be taken into account in establishing how to maximize efficacy of the drug. 相似文献

AIMS: To determine whether mild alcohol intoxication (45-50 mg/dl) influences counterregulatory hormone responses to moderate hypoglycaemia (2.8 mmol/l)in patients with Type 1 diabetes. METHODS: Seventeen subjects (14 male, age range 21-46 years) with Type 1 diabetes underwent four hyperinsulinaemic glucose clamps: euglycaemia with placebo; euglycaemia with alcohol (0.4 g/kg); hypoglycaemia (2.8 mmol/l for 65 min)with placebo; and hypoglycaemia (2.8 mmol/l for 65 min) with alcohol (0.4 g/kg).Arterialized venous blood samples were taken for measurement of insulin and counterregulatory hormones. RESULTS: During hypoglycaemia, peak growth hormone concentrations were significantly lower after alcohol compared with placebo (14.3 +/- 2.9 vs.25.9 +/- 3.4 microg/l,P< 0.001) associated with reduced insulin sensitivity in both hypoglycaemia and euglycaemia studies. CONCLUSIONS: We found an attenuated growth hormone response to hypoglycaemia associated with mild alcohol intoxication. Although this may potentially contribute to impaired recovery of glucose after hypoglycaemia in patients with Type 1 diabetes, it appears to be offset by a reduction in insulin action. 相似文献

To assess the short-term metabolic effects a long-acting non-sulphydryl ACE-inhibitor benazepril on glycaemic control in Type 2 diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension, 10 hypertensive diabetic patients treated with glibenclamide were studied in a double-blind, crossover fashion over two 10-day periods in which either benazepril (10 mg/day) or placebo was given. At the end of the 10 day treatment, both blood pressure and plasma glucose concentrations were lower after benazepril versus placebo (benazepril, blood pressure: 143 +/- 11/83 +/- 5 mmHg, plasma glucose: 7.1 +/- 1.2 mmol/l; placebo: blood pressure: 157 +/- 10/99 +/- 2 mmHg, plasma glucose: 8.2 +/- 1 mmol/l, p < 0.05). In response to an oral glucose tolerance test combined with 1 mg intravenous glibenclamide, plasma glucose levels were lower after benazepril versus placebo (0-460 min: 8.4 +/- 0.8 versus 10.5 +/- 0.9 mmol/l, p < 0.05), whereas plasma insulin, C-peptide and glibenclamide concentrations were not different. It is concluded that a short-term administration of benazepril in Type 2 diabetes mellitus reduces blood pressure and improves blood glucose control, most likely by decreasing insulin resistance. 相似文献

AIM: Acarbose is able to enhance GLP-1 release and delay gastric emptying in normal subjects. The effect of alpha-glucosidase inhibition on GLP-1 has been less evident in Type 2 diabetic patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible influence of acarbose on GLP-1 release and gastric emptying in Type 2 diabetic patients after a mixed test meal. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Ten Type 2 diabetic patients were tested with 100 mg acarbose or placebo served with a mixed meal that was labelled with 100 mg 13C-octanoic acid. Plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, GLP-1 and GIP were determined over 6 h. Gastric emptying was measured by determining breath 13CO2 using infrared absorptiometry. Statistics repeated-measures anova. RESULTS: Gastric emptying rates (t1/2: 162 +/- 45 vs. 163 +/- 62 min, P = 0.65) and plasma concentrations (increasing from approximately 12 to approximately 25 pmol/l, P = 0.37) and integrated responses of GLP-1 (P = 0.37) were not changed significantly by acarbose treatment. Postprandial plasma glucose concentrations (P < 0.0001) and their integrated responses were lowered by acarbose (by 64%; P = 0.016). The plasma concentrations of insulin and C-peptide were reduced (P = 0.007 and 0.057, respectively) by acarbose, while glucagon was not changed (P = 0.96). GIP plasma concentrations (increasing with placebo from approximately 10 to approximately 85 pmol/l and with acarbose to approximately 55 pmol/l (P < 0.0001) and their integrated responses were significantly lowered (by 43%) by acarbose (P = 0.021). After 2 weeks of acarbose treatment (50 mg t.i.d. for the first and 100 mg t.i.d. for the second week, n = 6), similar results were found. CONCLUSIONS: In hyperglycaemic Type 2 diabetic patients, ingestion of acarbose with a mixed test meal failed to enhance GLP-1 release and did not influence gastric emptying. 相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an important insulinotropic hormone with potential in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, the short biological half-life of the peptide after cleavage by dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPP IV) is a major limitation. Inhibition of DPP IV activity and the development of resistant GLP-1 analogues is the subject of ongoing research. In this study, we determined cell growth, insulin content, insulin accumulation and insulin secretory function of a insulin-secreting cell line cultured for 3 days with either GLP-1, GLP-1 plus the DPP IV inhibitor diprotin A (DPA) or stable N-acetyl-GLP-1. Native GLP-1 was rapidly degraded by DPP IV during culture with accumulation of the inactive metabolite GLP-1(9-36)amide. Inclusion of DPA or use of the DPP IV-resistant analogue, N-acetyl-GLP-1, improved cellular function compared to exposure to GLP-1 alone. Most notably, basal and accumulated insulin secretion was enhanced, and glucose responsiveness was improved. However, prolonged GLP-1 treatment resulted in GLP-1 receptor desensitization regardless of DPP IV status. The results indicate that prevention of DPP IV action is necessary for beneficial effects of GLP-1 on pancreatic beta cells and that prolonged exposure to GLP-1(9-36)amide may be detrimental to insulin secretory function. These observations also support the ongoing development of DPP-IV-resistant forms of GLP-1, such as N-acetyl-GLP-1. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide are incretin hormones, secreted in response to meal ingestion. The incretin hormones stimulate insulin secretion and are essential for the maintenance of normal plasma glucose concentrations. Both incretin hormones are metabolized quickly by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV). It is well known that type-2 diabetic patients have an impaired incretin effect. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate plasma DPP-IV activity in the fasting and the postprandial state in type-2 diabetic patients and control subjects. DESIGN: The study included two protocols. Protocol one involved 40 fasting type-2 diabetic patients (28 men); age 61 +/- 1.4 (mean +/- s.e.m.) years; body mass index (BMI) 31 +/- 0.6 kg/m(2); HbAlc 7.2 +/- 0.2%; and 20 matched control subjects (14 men) were studied. Protocol two involved eight type-2 diabetic patients (six men); age 63 +/- 1.2 years; BMI 33 +/- 0.5 kg/m(2); HbAlc 7.5 +/- 0.4%; eight matched control subjects were included. METHODS: In protocol one, fasting values of DPP-IV activity were evaluated and in protocol two, postprandial DPP-IV activity during a standard meal test (566 kcal) was estimated. RESULTS: Mean fasting plasma DPP-IV activity (expressed as degradation of GLP-1) was significantly higher in this patient group compared with the control subjects (67.5 +/- 1.9 vs 56.8 +/- 2.2 fmol GLP-1/h (mean +/- s.e.m.); P=0.001). In the type-2 diabetic patients, DPP-IV activity was positively correlated to FPG and HbAlc and negatively to the duration of diabetes and age of the patients. No postprandial changes were seen in plasma DPP-IV activity in any of the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Plasma DPP-IVactivity increases in the fasting state and is positively correlated to FPG and HbAlc levels, but plasma DPP-IV activity is not altered following meal ingestion and acute changes in plasma glucose. 相似文献

The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) as a routine treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus is undermined by its short biological half-life. A cause of degradation is its cleavage at the N-terminal HAE sequence by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV). To protect from DPP IV, we have studied the biological activity of a GLP-1 analog in which 6-aminohexanoic acid (Aha) is inserted between histidine and alanine at positions 7 and 8. We have compared the biological activity of this new compound, GLP-1 Aha(8), with the previously described GLP-1 8-glycine (GLP-1 Gly(8)) analog. GLP-1 Aha(8) (10 nM) was equipotent with GLP-1 (10 nM) in stimulating insulin secretion in RIN 1046-38 cells. As with GLP-1 Gly(8), the binding affinity of GLP-1 Aha(8) for the GLP-1 receptor in intact Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the human GLP-1 receptor (CHO/GLP-1R cells) was reduced (IC(50): GLP-1, 3.7 +/- 0.2 nM; GLP-1 Gly(8), 41 +/- 9 nM; GLP-1 Aha(8), 22 +/- 7 nM). GLP-1 Aha(8) was also shown to stimulate intracellular cAMP production 4-fold above basal at concentrations as low as 0.5 nM. However, it exhibited a higher ED(50) when compared to GLP-1 and GLP-1 Gly(8) (ED(50): GLP-1, 0.036 +/- 0.002 nM, GLP-1 Gly(8), 0.13 +/- 0.02 nM, GLP-1 Aha(8), 0.58 +/- 0.03 nM). A series of D-amino acid-substituted GLP-1 compounds were also examined to assess the importance of putative peptidase-sensitive cleavage sites present in the GLP-1 molecule. They had poor binding affinity for the GLP-1 receptor, and none of these compounds stimulated the production of intracellular cAMP in CHO/GLP-1R cells or insulin secretion in RIN 1046-38 cells. GLP-1 Aha(8) (24 nmol/kg) administered sc to fasted Zucker (fa/fa) rats (mean blood glucose, 195 +/- 32 mg/dl) lowered blood glucose levels to a nadir of 109 +/- 3 mg/dl, and it remained significantly lower for 8 h. Matrix-assisted linear desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry of GLP-1 Aha(8) incubated with DPP IV (37 C, 2 h) did not exhibit an N-terminal degradation product. Taken together, these results show that insertion of Aha after the 7 position in GLP-1 produces an effective, long-acting GLP-1 analog, which may be useful in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

Long-term inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase IV improves glucose tolerance and preserves islet function in mice 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

OBJECTIVES: Inhibitors of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-degrading enzyme, dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV), are being explored in the treatment of diabetes. We examined the long-term influence of a selective, orally active inhibitor of DPPIV (NVP DPP728), in normal female C57BL/6J mice and such mice rendered glucose-intolerant and insulin-resistant by feeding a high-fat diet. DESIGN: In mice fed a standard diet (11% fat) or a high-fat diet (58% fat), NVP DPP728 (0.12 micromol/g body weight) was administered in the drinking water for an 8 week period. RESULTS: DPPIV inhibition reduced plasma DPPIV activity to 0.01+/-0.03 mU/ml vs 3.26+/-0.19 mU/ml in controls (P<0.001). Glucose tolerance after gastric glucose gavage, as judged by the area under the curve for plasma glucose levels over the 120 min study period, was increased after 8 weeks by NVP DPP728 in mice fed normal diet (P=0.029) and in mice fed a high-fat diet (P=0.036). This was accompanied by increased plasma levels of insulin and intact GLP-1. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from islets isolated from NVP DPP728-treated animals after 8 weeks of treatment was increased as compared with islets from control animals at 5.6, 8.3 and 11.1 mmol/l glucose both in mice fed normal diet and in mice fed a high-fat diet (both P<0.05). Islet insulin and glucagon immunocytochemistry revealed that NVP DPP728 did not affect the islet architecture. However, the expression of immunoreactive glucose transporter isoform-2 (GLUT-2) was increased by DPPIV inhibition, and in mice fed a high-fat diet, islet size was reduced after treatment with NVP DPP728 from 16.7+/-2.6 x 10(3) microm(2) in controls to 7.6+/-1.0 x 10(3) microm(2) (P=0.0019). CONCLUSION: Long-term DPPIV inhibition improves glucose tolerance in both normal and glucose-intolerant mice through improved islet function as judged by increased GLUT-2 expression, increased insulin secretion and protection from increased islet size in insulin resistance. 相似文献

Combination therapy of oral hypoglycaemic agents and insulin is a therapeutic option for those who have deterioration in glycaemic control. We examined the contribution of metformin by withdrawing it from Type 2 diabetic patients who had been stabilised on combination therapy. Fifty-one subjects with Type 2 diabetes and secondary oral hypoglycaemic agent failure were studied in a randomised, open and parallel study. In the first phase of 36 weeks, subjects were stabilised on combined therapy of sulphonylureas and nocturnal insulin, with or without metformin. During the second phase, metformin was withdrawn. The primary variables for efficacy were HbA(1c), fasting plasma glucose and 3-point capillary blood glucose profiles. After stabilisation with combination therapy, those subjects on metformin used less insulin to maintain glycaemic control (13.7+/-6.8 vs. 23.0+/-9.4 U/day, P=0.001) and had lower HbA(1c) values (8.13+/-0.89 vs. 9.05+/-1.30%, P=0.003) compared with those not given metformin. Withdrawal of metformin therapy caused deterioration in HbA(1c) (P=0.001). This study confirms that metformin plays an important role in the success of the combination therapy. The rational use of metformin and sulphonylurea together with insulin will help to improve metabolic control in Type 2 diabetes patients who have secondary drug failure. 相似文献

No reactive hypoglycaemia in Type 2 diabetic patients after subcutaneous administration of GLP-1 and intravenous glucose. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
AIMS: It has previously been shown that intravenous and subcutaneous administration of glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 concomitant with intravenous glucose results in reactive hypoglycaemia in healthy subjects. Since GLP-1 is also effective in Type 2 diabetic patients and is presently being evaluated as a therapeutic agent in this disease, it is important to investigate whether GLP-1 can cause hypoglycaemia in such patients. METHODS: Eight Type 2 diabetic patients (age 54 (49-67) years; body mass index 31 (27-38) kg/m2; HbA1c 9.4 (7.0-12.5)%) and seven matched non-diabetic subjects (HbA1c 5.5 (5.2-5.8)%, fasting plasma glucose 5.4 (5.0-5.7) mmol/l) were given a subcutaneous injection of 1.5 nmol GLP-1/kg body weight (maximally tolerated dose), and 15 min later, plasma glucose (PG) was raised to 15 mmol/l with an intravenous glucose bolus. RESULTS: Hypoglycaemia with a PG at or below 2.5 mmol/l was seen in five of the seven healthy subjects after 60-70 min, but PG spontaneously increased again, reaching 3.7 (3.3-4.0) mmol/l at 90 min. In the patients, PG fell slowly and stabilized at 8.6 (4.2-12.1) mmol/l after 80 min. In both groups, glucagon levels initially decreased, but later increased, exceeding basal levels in healthy subjects, in spite of persistent, high concentrations of GLP-1 (P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Subcutaneous GLP-1 plus intravenous glucose induced reactive hypoglycaemia in healthy subjects, but not in Type 2 diabetic patients. Therefore, a GLP-1-based therapy would not be expected to be associated with an increased risk of hypoglycaemia in Type 2 diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

Nine obese patients with Type II diabetes mellitus were examined in a double-blind cross-over study. Metformin 0.5 g trice daily or placebo were given for 4 weeks. At the end of each period fasting and day-time postprandial values of plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide and lactate were determined, and in vivo insulin action was assessed using the euglycemic clamp in combination with [3-3H]glucose tracer technique. Metformin treatment significantly reduced mean day-time plasma glucose levels (10.2 +/- 1.2 vs 11.4 +/- 1.2 mmol/l, P less than 0.01) without enhancing mean day-time plasma insulin (43 +/- 4 vs 50 +/- 7 mU/l, NS) or C-peptide levels (1.26 +/- 0.12 vs 1.38 +/- 0.18 nmol/l, NS). Fasting plasma lactate was unchanged (1.57 +/- 0.16 vs 1.44 +/- 0.11 mmol/l, NS), whereas mean day-time plasma lactate concentrations were slightly increased (1.78 +/- 0.11 vs 1.38 +/- 0.11 mmol/l, P less than 0.01). The clamp study revealed that metformin treatment was associated with an enhanced insulin-mediated glucose utilization (370 +/- 38 vs 313 +/- 33 mg.m-2.min-1, P less than 0.01), whereas insulin-mediated suppression of hepatic glucose production was unchanged. Also basal glucose clearance was improved (61.0 +/- 5.8 vs 50.6 +/- 2.8 ml.m-2.min-1, P less than 0.05), whereas basal hepatic glucose production was unchanged (81 +/- 6 vs 77 +/- 4 mg.m-2.min-1, NS). Conclusions: 1) Metformin treatment in obese Type II diabetic patients reduces hyperglycemia without changing the insulin secretion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

AIMS: To compare the efficacy and safety of either continuing or discontinuing rosiglitazone + metformin fixed-dose combination when starting insulin therapy in people with Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on oral therapy. METHODS: In this 24-week double-blind study, 324 individuals with Type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on maximum dose rosiglitazone + metformin therapy were randomly assigned to twice-daily premix insulin therapy (target pre-breakfast and pre-evening meal glucose < or = 6.5 mmol/l) in addition to either rosiglitazone + metformin (8/2000 mg) or placebo. RESULTS: Insulin dose at week 24 was significantly lower with rosiglitazone + metformin (33.5 +/- 1.5 U/day, mean +/- se) compared with placebo [59.0 +/- 3.0 U/day; model-adjusted difference -26.6 (95% CI -37.7, -15,5) U/day, P < 0.001]. Despite this, there was greater improvement in glycaemic control [HbA(1c) rosiglitazone + metformin vs. placebo 6.8 +/- 0.1 vs. 7.5 +/- 0.1%; difference -0.7 (-0.8, -0.5)%, P < 0.001] and more individuals achieved glycaemic targets (HbA(1c) < 7.0% 70 vs. 34%, P < 0.001). The proportion of individuals reporting at least one hypoglycaemic event during the last 12 weeks of treatment was similar in the two groups (rosiglitazone + metformin vs. placebo 25 vs. 27%). People receiving rosiglitazone + metformin in addition to insulin reported greater treatment satisfaction than those receiving insulin alone. Both treatment regimens were well tolerated but more participants had oedema [12 (7%) vs. 4 (3%)] and there was more weight gain [3.7 vs. 2.6 kg; difference 1.1 (0.2, 2.1) kg, P = 0.02] with rosiglitazone + metformin. CONCLUSIONS: Addition of insulin to rosiglitazone + metformin enabled more people to reach glycaemic targets with less insulin, and was generally well tolerated. 相似文献

Aim: Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)‐4 in responsible for incretin degradation and some observations suggest that DPP‐4 activity is increased in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We aimed to assess the effect of T2D and glucose control on DPP‐4 activity. Methods: In the first set (SET1) of patients, we compared plasma DPP‐4 activity between 30 T2D and 20 age‐ and sex‐matched non‐diabetic subjects. In the second set (SET2), we measured serum DPP‐4 activity in 42 T2D patients before and after a trial of glucose control achieved by add‐on basal insulin therapy (NCT00699686). Serum/plasma DPP‐4 activity was determined using chromogenic and fluorigenic substrates, as well as several positive and negative controls. Results: In SET1, plasma DPP‐4 activity was significantly higher in T2D vs. controls (32.2 ± 1.2 U/l vs. 21.2 ± 1.1 U/l, p < 10?6). From a meta‐analysis of the literature, we found that T2D is associated with a 33% increase in DPP‐4 activity compared to controls. In SET2, serum DPP‐4 activity was not lowered by intensified glucose control, despite an average haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reduction of 1.5%. In both sets of diabetic patients, the use of metformin was associated with a significantly lower DPP‐4 activity, independently of age, sex, body mass index and HbA1c. Conclusion: DPP‐4 activity is increased in T2D, but is not lowered by glucose control, suggesting that hyperglycaemia is not a direct determinant of DPP‐4 activity. However, metformin may indirectly reduce DPP‐4 activity. 相似文献

Normalization of fasting hyperglycaemia by exogenous glucagon-like peptide 1 (7-36 amide) in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients 总被引:11,自引:3,他引:11

Summary Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) (7-36 amide) is a physiological incretin hormone that is released after nutrient intake from the lower gut and stimulates insulin secretion at elevated plasma glucose concentrations. Previous work has shown that even in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients GLP-1 (7-36 amide) retains much of its insulinotropic action. However, it is not known whether the magnitude of this response is sufficient to normalize plasma glucose in Type 2 diabetic patients with poor metabolic control. Therefore, in 10 Type 2 diabetic patients with unsatisfactory metabolic control (HbAlc 11.6±1.7%) on diet and sulphonylurea therapy (in some patients supplemented by metformin or acarbose), 1.2 pmol ×kg–1×min–1 GLP-1 (7-36 amide) or placebo was infused intravenously in the fasting state (plasma glucose 13.1±0.6 mmol/l). In all patients, insulin (by 17.4±4.7 nmol ×1–1×min; p=0.0157) and C-peptide (by 228.0±39.1 nmol×1–1×min; p=0.0019) increased significantly over basal levels, glucagon was reduced (by -1418±308 pmol ×1–1×min) and plasma glucose reached normal fasting concentrations (4.9±0.3 mmol/l) within 4 h of GLP-1 (7-36 amide) administration, but not with placebo. When normal fasting plasma glucose concentrations were reached insulin returned towards basal levels and plasma glucose concentrations remained stable despite the ongoing infusion of GLP-1 (7-36 amide). Therefore, exogenous GLP-1 (7-36 amide) is an effective means of normalizing fasting plasma glucose concentrations in poorly-controlled Type 2 diabetic patients. The glucose-dependence of insulinotropic actions of GLP-1 (7-36 amide) appears to be retained in such patients. 相似文献
