A method allowing one to measure the rate of glucose phosphorylation in the livers of anesthetized rats is described. Upon injection of [2-3H]glucose into the portal vein, about 90% of the radioactivity remained in the liver for approximately 30 s. The proportion of radioactivity accounted for by tritiated water increased linearly at a rate of about 5%/min in control animals. Fructose injected into the penile vein stimulated this rate up to 2.2- and 2.7-fold in fed and overnight starved rats respectively, a maximal effect being observed at a dose of 50 mg/kg under both conditions. Fructose was also active when administered by intragastric infusion. The ketose caused increases in the concentration of fructose 1-phosphate, which reached values known to relieve the inhibition exerted on glucokinase by its regulatory protein.  相似文献

Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels in freeze-clamped livers of starved rats were 0.5 nmol/g liver. Oral administration of 1 g glucose per kg body weight to starved rats increased glycogen levels from 4 mg/g liver to 13.5 mg/g in 2 hr but did not significantly alter fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels. The low level of this effector is consistent with an active gluconeogenic process and the results support the hypothesis that carbon atoms for glycogen synthesis can be derived from 3-carbon precursors via this pathway, even in the presence of glucose.  相似文献

Metabolism of 3H- and 14C-labelled lactate in starved rats   总被引:4,自引:2,他引:4       下载免费PDF全文
1. [2-3H,U-14C]- or [3-3H,U-14C]-Lactate was administered by infusion or bolus injection to overnight-starved rats. Tracer lactate was injected or infused through indwelling cannulas into the aorta and blood was sampled from the vena cava (A–VC mode), or it was administered into the vena cava and sampled from the aorta (V–A mode). Sampling was continued after infusion was terminated to obtain the wash-out curves for the tracer. The activities of lactate, glucose, amino acids and water were followed. 2. The kinetics of labelled lactate in the two modes differed markedly, but the kinetics of labelled glucose were much the same irrespective of mode. 3. The kinetics of 3H-labelled lactate differed markedly from those for [U-14C]lactate. Isotopic steady state was attained in less than 1h of infusion of [3H]lactate but required over 6h for [U-14C]lactate. 4. 3H from [2-3H]lactate labels glucose more extensive than does that from [3-3H]lactate. [3-3H]Lactate also labels plasma amino acids. The distribution of 3H in glucose was determined. 5. Maximal radioactivity in 3HOH in plasma is attained in less than 1min after injection. Near-maximal radioactivity in [14C]glucose and [3H]glucose is attained within 2–3min after injection. 6. The apparent replacement rates for lactate were calculated from the areas under the specific-radioactivity curves or plateau specific radioactivities after primed infusion. Results calculated from bolus injection and infusion agreed closely. The apparent replacement rate for [3H]lactate from the A–VC mode averaged about 16mg/min per kg body wt. and that in the V–A mode about 8.5mg/min per kg body wt. The apparent rates for [14C]lactate (`rate of irreversible disposal') were 8mg/min per kg body wt. for the A–VC mode and 5.5mg/min per kg body wt. for the V–A mode. Apparent recycling of lactate carbon was 55–60% according to the A–VC mode and 35% according to the V–A mode. 7. The specific radioactivities of [U-14C]glucose at isotopic steady state were 55% and 45% that of [U-14C]lactate in the A–VC and V–A modes respectively. We calculated, correcting for the dilution of 14C in gluconeogenesis via oxaloacetate, that over 70% of newly synthesized glucose was derived from circulating lactate. 8. Recycling of 3H between lactate and glucose was evaluated. It has no significant effect on the calculation of the replacement rate, but affects considerably the areas under the wash-out curves for both [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate, and calculation of mean transit time and total lactate mass in the body. Corrected for recycling, in the A–VC mode the mean transit time is about 3min, the lactate mass about 50mg/kg body wt. and the lactate space about 65% of body space. The V–A mode yields a mass and lactate space about half those with the A–VC mode. 9. The area under the wash-out curve for [14C]lactate is some 20–30 times that for [3H]lactate, and apparent carbon mass is 400–500mg/kg body wt. and presumably includes the carbon of glucose, pyruvate and amino acids, which are exchanging rapidly with that of lactate.  相似文献

To non-anaesthetized rats starved for 3 days, [U-14C]acetone, NaH14CO3, L-[U-14C]lactate, [2-14C]acetate or D-[U-14C]- plus D-[3-3H]-glucose was injected intravenously. From the change in the plasma concentration of labelled acetone versus time after the injection, the metabolic clearance rate of acetone was calculated as 2.25 ml/min per kg body wt., and its rate of turnover as 0.74 mumol/min per kg. The extent and time course of the labelling of plasma glucose, lactate, urea and acetoacetate were followed and compared with those observed after the injection of labelled lactate, acetate and NaHCO3. The labelling of plasma lactate was rapid and extensive. Some 1.37% of the 14C atoms of circulating glucose originated from plasma acetone, compared with 44% originating from lactate. By deconvolution of the Unit Impulse Response Function of glucose, it was shown that the flux of C atoms from acetone to glucose reached a peak at about 100 min after injection of labelled acetone. In comparable experiments the transfer from lactate reached a peak at 14 min after the injection of labelled lactate. It was concluded that acetone is converted into lactate to a degree sufficient to account for the labelling of plasma glucose and is thus a true, albeit minor, substrate of glucose synthesis in starved rats.  相似文献

Hypoglycaemia which develops in starved newborn rats (0.15 +/- 0.01 mg/ml) is reversed by feeding medium-chain triglycerides (0.66 +/- 0.05 mg/ml). Despite similar glycaemia (0.71 +/- 0.07 mg/ml) starved newborns infused with glucose (10.7 mg/min/kg) show a 30% higher glucose turnover rate than medium-chain triglyceride fed animals (14.1 +/- 0.6 versus 10.6 +/- 0.3 mg/min/kg, p less than 0.01). For a comparable [6-3H]glucose turnover rate (10.5 +/- 0.3 mg/min/kg), glucose-infused (5.25 mg/min/kg) newborns have a 30% lower glycaemia (0.50 +/- 0.03 mg/ml, p less than 0.01) than medium-chain triglyceride-fed newborns. Thus, medium chain triglyceride feeding leads to a 30% decreased capacity of the tissues to utilize glucose. For a similar glucose turnover rate, medium-chain triglyceride-fed newborns have a higher blood lactate concentration than glucose-infused newborns (0.26 +/- 0.03 versus 0.15 +/- 0.02 mg/ml). However, in medium-chain triglyceride-fed newborns, the increase of blood lactate is not only due to the Cori cycle, as glucose recycling is less increased than glucose production. Thus medium-chain triglyceride increases the release of gluconeogenic precursors which are not derived from blood glucose. In presence of a glucose infusion (15.25 mg/min/kg) producing hyperglycaemia (1.35 +/- 0.05 mg/ml), endogenous glucose production is suppressed by only 37%. If 3-mercaptopicolinate, an inhibitor or gluconeogenesis, is given concomitantly, hyperglycaemia is prevented (0.72 +/- 0.08 mg/ml) and endogenous glucose production is suppressed. Glucose infusion in the hypoglycaemic newborn rat might thus lead to a precarious glucose homeostasis.  相似文献

To investigate the effect of elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations on splanchnic glucose uptake (SGU), we measured SGU in nine healthy subjects (age, 44 +/- 4 yr; body mass index, 27.4 +/- 1.2 kg/m(2); fasting plasma glucose, 5.2 +/- 0.1 mmol/l) during an Intralipid-heparin (LIP) infusion and during a saline (Sal) infusion. SGU was estimated by the oral glucose load (OGL)-insulin clamp method: subjects received a 7-h euglycemic insulin (100 mU x m(-2) x min(-1)) clamp, and a 75-g OGL was ingested 3 h after the insulin clamp was started. After glucose ingestion, the steady-state glucose infusion rate (GIR) during the insulin clamp was decreased to maintain euglycemia. SGU was calculated by subtracting the integrated decrease in GIR during the period after glucose ingestion from the ingested glucose load. [3-(3)H]glucose was infused during the initial 3 h of the insulin clamp to determine rates of endogenous glucose production (EGP) and glucose disappearance (R(d)). During the 3-h euglycemic insulin clamp before glucose ingestion, R(d) was decreased (8.8 +/- 0.5 vs. 7.6 +/- 0.5 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1), P < 0.01), and suppression of EGP was impaired (0.2 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.07 +/- 0.03 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1), P < 0.01). During the 4-h period after glucose ingestion, SGU was significantly increased during the LIP vs. Sal infusion study (30 +/- 2 vs. 20 +/- 2%, P < 0.005). In conclusion, an elevation in plasma FFA concentration impairs whole body glucose R(d) and insulin-mediated suppression of EGP in healthy subjects but augments SGU.  相似文献

The flux of glucose carbon to total body fatty acids was measured in unanesthetized mice either after fasting or 50-80 min after they nibbled a small test meal containing 120 mg of glucose (fasted-refed). Flux was calculated from plasma [(14)C]glucose specific activity curves and from total body (14)C-labeled fatty acid 30 min after intravenous injection of tracer [(14)C]glucose. Mobilization of liver glycogen, changes in the body glucose pool size, and total flux of carbon through the glucose pool during periods of fasting and refeeding were defined. Liver glycogen was almost completely depleted 8 hr after food removal. Body glucose pool size fell during fasting and increased after refeeding the test meal. Irreversible disposal rate of glucose C varied directly with body glucose pool size; but flux of glucose C into fatty acids increased exponentially as body glucose concentration increased. Within an hour after nibbling a small test meal, the flux of glucose C into total body fatty acids increased 700% in mice previously starved for 24 hr. However, flux of glucose C into fatty acids in postabsorptive mice (food removed for 2 hr; livers rich in glycogen) was only about 2% of the value calculated from published studies in which the incorporation of an intubated [(14)C]glucose load into total body fatty acid was measured in mice. A possible explanation for this phenomenon is presented.  相似文献

The turnover of prothrombin and of factor X was investigated in rabbits fed on a 1%-cholesterol-supplemented or a standard diet by studying the evolution of radioactivity in blood and in plasma from these animals after the intravenous injection of either 125I-rabbit factor X or 125I-bovine prothrombin. For factor X, half-lives and fractional pool sizes were similar for the two groups of rabbits in the extravascular, intravascular and plasma compartments. However, the equivalent plasma fractional pool size for the two groups of rabbits was only 73% of that in the intravascular compartment. The fractional catabolic rate for the hypercholesterolaemic rabbits [0.064 +/- 0.007 (of the intravascular pool)/h] was not significantly different from that in the rabbits fed on the standard diet (0.074 +/- 0.008/h). However, the absolute catabolic rate, and therefore the rate of synthesis, was significantly higher (1.261 +/- 0.141 mg/day per kg body wt. of rabbit) in the rabbits fed on the cholesterol-supplemented than that in the rabbits fed on the standard diet (0.705 +/- 0.019 mg/day per kg). The prothrombin half-lives and fractional pool sizes were similar for the two groups of rabbits in the extravascular and the intravascular compartments. The fractional catabolic rate for the hypercholesterolaemic rabbits [0.041 +/- 0.003 (of the plasma pool)/h] was not significantly different from that in the rabbits fed on the standard diet (0.035 +/- 0.003/h). However, the absolute catabolic rate and therefore the rate of prothrombin synthesis was significantly higher (3.96 +/- 0.48 mg/day per kg body wt.) in the rabbits fed on the cholesterol-supplemented than that in the rabbits fed on the standard diet (2.24 +/- 0.12 mg/day per kg).  相似文献

Contribution of propionate to glucose synthesis in sheep   总被引:7,自引:7,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
1. The production rate of propionate in the rumen and the entry rate of glucose into the body pool of glucose in sheep were measured by isotope-dilution methods. Propionate production rates were measured by using a continuous infusion of specifically labelled [(14)C]propionate. Glucose entry rates were estimated by using either a primed infusion or a continuous infusion of [U-(14)C]glucose. 2. The specific radioactivity of plasma glucose was constant between 4 and 9hr. after the commencement of intravenous infusion of [U-(14)C]glucose and between 1 and 3hr. when a primed infusion was used. 3. Infusion of [(14)C]propionate intraruminally resulted in a fairly constant specific radioactivity of rumen propionate between about 4 and 9hr. and of plasma glucose between 6 and 9hr. after the commencement of the infusion. Comparison of the mean specific radioactivities of glucose and propionate during these periods allowed estimates to be made of the contribution of propionate to glucose synthesis. 4. Comparisons of the specific radioactivities of plasma glucose and rumen propionate during intraruminal infusions of one of [1-(14)C]-, [2-(14)C]-, [3-(14)C]- and [U-(14)C]-propionate indicated considerable exchange of C-1 of propionate on conversion into glucose. The incorporation of C-2 and C-3 of propionate into glucose and lactate indicated that 54% of both the glucose and lactate synthesized arose from propionate carbon. 5. No differences were found for glucose entry rates measured either by a primed infusion or by a continuous infusion. The mean entry rate (+/-s.e.m.) of glucose estimated by using a continuous infusion into sheep was 0.33+/-0.03 (4) m-mole/min. and by using a primed infusion was 0.32+/-0.01 (4) m-mole/min. The mean propionate production rate was 1.24+/-0.03 (8) m-moles/min. The conversion of propionate into glucose was 0.36 m-mole/min., indicating that 32% of the propionate produced in the rumen is used for glucose synthesis. 6. It was indicated that a considerable amount of the propionate converted into glucose was first converted into lactate.  相似文献

1. Various parameters of glucose metabolism--glucose replacement rate, percent recycling, mean transit time, and glucose mass were examined using various double labeled glucose tracers--2T-, U-14C; 3T-, U-14C; 4T-, U-14C; 5T-, U14C; and 6T-, U-14C. 2. Estimates of replacement rate were greatest for 2T-glucose (21.4 mg/min/kg), with 3T-, 4T-, 5T-, and 6T-glucose all having similar values (15.8, 15.6, 17.0, 16.0 mg/min/kg, respectively). 3. Calculated glucose mass based on all tritiated tracers (734-1086 mg/kg body weight) agreed closely with a direct determination of body glucose (969 mg/kg). 4. Reincorporation of tritium from 3H2O into glucose did not occur to any significant degree. 5. The young chick was found to have a very rapid rate of glucose turnover and high percent recycling compared to mammals.  相似文献

Related to hepatic autoregulation we evaluated hypotheses that 1) glucose production would be altered as a result of a glycerol load, 2) decreased glucose recycling rate (Rr) would result from increased glycerol uptake, and 3) the absolute rate of gluconeogenesis (GNG) from glycerol would be positively correlated to glycerol rate of disappearance (R(d)) during a glycerol load. For these purposes, glucose and glycerol kinetics were determined in eight men during rest and during 90 min of leg cycle ergometry at 45 and 65% of peak O2 consumption (.VO2 (peak)). Trials were conducted after an overnight fast, with exercise commencing 12 h after the last meal. Subjects received a continuous infusion of [6,6-(2)H(2)]glucose, [1-(13)C]glucose, and [1,1,2,3,3-(2)H(5)]glycerol without (CON) or with an additional 1,000 mg (rest: 20 mg/min; exercise: 40 mg/min) of [2-(13)C]- or unlabeled glycerol added to the infusate (GLY). Infusion of glycerol dampened glucose Rr, calculated as the difference between [6,6-(2)H(2)]- and [1-(13)C]glucose rates of appearance (R(a)), at rest [0.35 +/- 0.12 (CON) vs. 0.12 +/- 0.10 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) (GLY), P < 0.05] and during exercise at both intensities [45%: 0.63 +/- 0.14 (CON) vs. 0.04 +/- 0.12 (GLY); 65%: 0.73 +/- 0.14 (CON) vs. 0.04 +/- 0.17 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) (GLY), P < 0.05]. Glucose R(a) and oxidation were not affected by glycerol infusion at rest or during exercise. Throughout rest and both exercise intensities, glycerol R(d) was greater in GLY vs. CON conditions (rest: 0.30 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.58 +/- 0.04; 45%: 0.57 +/- 0.07 vs. 1.19 +/- 0.04; 65%: 0.73 +/- 0.06 vs. 1.27 +/- 0.05 mg. kg(-1). min(-1), CON vs. GLY, respectively). Differences in glycerol R(d) (DeltaR(d)) between protocols equaled the unlabeled glycerol infusion rate and correlated with plasma glycerol concentration (r = 0.97). We conclude that infusion of a glycerol load during rest and exercise at 45 and 65% of .VO2(peak) 1) does not affect glucose R(a) or R(d), 2) blocks glucose Rr, 3) increases whole body glycerol R(d) in a dose-dependent manner, and 4) results in gluconeogenic rates from glycerol equivalent to CON glucose recycling rates.  相似文献

The role of leucine in ketogenesis in starved rats.   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
The quantitative significance of the conversion in vivo of L-[U-14C]leucine to ketone bodies was determined in rats starved for 3 or 48 h. In animals starved for 3 h, 4.4% of ketone-body carbon is derived from the metabolism of leucine, and in rats starved for 48 h the corresponding value is 2.3%. This conversion occurs rapidly, and the specific radioactivity of ketone bodies in blood is maximal at 2 min after the intravenous injection of labelled leucine for both periods of starvation. The flux of leucine in the blood is 1.01 and 1.04 mumol/min per 100 g body wt. respectively for animals starved for 3 and 48 h. The specific radioactivity of blood ketone bodies was compared at 2 min after the injection of labelled leucine, lysine and phenylalanine. The specific radioactivity was 4-5 fold higher with leucine than with lysine or phenylalanine.  相似文献

The effects of five anaesthetics on the corticosterone, cortisol and glucose concentrations were investigated in the NZW rabbit. Sixty animals were assigned to 6 treatment groups (n= 10 per group): control ( iv saline solution injection), ketamine (10 mg/kg iv) with either xylazine (3 mg/kg iv) or diazepam (2 mg/kg iv), pentobarbitone (30 mg/kg iv), thiopentone (20 mg/kg iv) and fentanyl/droperidol (1 mg/kg sc). Plasma glucocorticoids were measured by competitive enzymeimmunoassay EIA and glucose by an autoanalyzer, previously validated for this species in both cases. Blood samples were obtained at 6 time-points: before injection, at 10, 30, 60, 120 min and 24 h after injection of the anaesthetics/saline. A significant decrease of plasma glucocorticoids at 10-60 min was observed in the pentobarbitone and fentanyl/ droperidol groups, whereas the administration of ketamine/diazepam or thiopentone stimulated plasma glucocorticoid release, principally in the recovery period. However, in the ketamine/xylazine group no changes were observed in the glucocorticoid levels, except for a significative increase of cortisol at 60-120 min. Glucose levels significantly increased after ketamine/diazepam administration and principally, after ketamine/xylazine treatment. The present data suggest that ketamine/xylazine has little effect on glucocorticoid levels and provides an adequate level of surgical anaesthesia, hence it would be the anaesthetic of choice, although the hyperglycaemic effect after injection has to be considered for any experimental procedures in rabbits.  相似文献

To determine whether the uptake and metabolic partition of glucose are influenced by its delivery route, 12 normal volunteers underwent two 3-h euglycemic (approximately 93 mg/dl) hyperinsulinemic (approximately 43 mU/l) clamps at a 3- to 5-wk interval, one with intravenous (i.v.) and the other with intraduodenal (i.d.) glucose labeled with [3-3H]- and [U-14C]glucose. Systemic glucose was traced with [6,6-2H2]glucose in eight subjects. During the last hour of the clamps, the average glucose infusion rate (5.85 +/- 0.37 vs. 5.43 +/- 0.43 mg.kg(-1).min(-1); P = 0.02) and exogenous glucose uptake (5.66 +/- 0.37 vs. 5.26 +/- 0.41 mg.kg(-1).min(-1); P = 0.04) were borderline higher in the i.d. than in the i.v. studies. The increased uptake was entirely accounted for by increased glycolysis (3H2O production), which was attributed to the stimulation of gut metabolism by the absorptive process. No difference was observed in glucose storage whether it was calculated as glucose uptake minus glycolysis (i.d. vs. i.v.: 2.44 +/- 0.28 vs. 2.40 +/- 0.31 mg.kg(-1).min(-1)) or as glucose uptake minus net glucose oxidation (2.86 +/- 0.33 vs. 2.81 +/- 0.35 mg.kg(-1).min(-1)). Because peripheral tissues were exposed to identical glucose, insulin, and free fatty acid levels under the two experimental conditions, we assumed that their glucose uptake and storage were similar during the two tests. We therefore suggest that hepatic glycogen storage (estimated as whole body minus peripheral storage) was also unaffected by the route of glucose delivery. On the other hand, in the i.d. tests, the glucose splanchnic extraction ratio calculated by the dual-isotope technique averaged 4.9 +/- 2.3%, which is close to the figures published for i.v. glucose. Despite the limitations related to whole body measurements, these two sets of data do not support the idea that enteral glucose stimulates hepatic uptake more efficiently than i.v. glucose.  相似文献

The lumped constant (LC) is used to convert the clearance rate of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG(CR)) to that of glucose (Glc(CR)). There are currently no data to validate the widely used assumption of an LC of 1.0 for human skeletal muscle. We determined the LC for 2-deoxy-[1-(14)C]glucose (2-DG) in 18 normal male subjects (age, 29+/- 2 yr; body mass index, 24.8+/-0.8 kg/m(2)) after an overnight fast and during physiological (1 mU x kg(-1) x min(-1) insulin infusion for 180 min) and supraphysiological (5 mU x kg(-1) x min(-1) insulin infusion for 180 min) hyperinsulinemic conditions. Normoglycemia was maintained with the euglycemic clamp technique. The LC was measured directly with the use of a novel triple tracer-based method. [3-(3)H]glucose, 2-[1-(14)C]DG, and [(12)C]mannitol (Man) were injected as a bolus into the brachial artery. The concentrations of [3-(3)H]glucose and 2-[1-(14)C]DG (dpm/ml plasma) and of Man (micromol/l) were determined in 50 blood samples withdrawn from the ipsilateral deep forearm vein over 15 min after the bolus injection. The LC was calculated by a formula involving blood flow calculated from Man and the Glc(CR) and 2-DG(CR). The LC averaged 1.26+/-0.08 (range 1.06-1.43), 1.15+/-0.05 (0.99-1.39), and 1.18+/-0.05 (0.97-1.37) under fasting conditions and during the 1 and 5 mU x kg(-1). min(-1) insulin infusions (not significant between the different insulin concentrations, mean LC = 1.2, P<0.01 vs. 1.0). We conclude that, in normal subjects, the LC for 2-DG in human skeletal muscle is constant over a wide range of insulin concentrations and averages 1. 2.  相似文献

We previously reported that infection decreases hepatic glucose uptake when glucose is given as a constant peripheral glucose infusion (8 mg. kg(-1) x min(-1)). This impairment persisted despite greater hyperinsulinemia in the infected group. In a normal setting, hepatic glucose uptake can be further enhanced if glucose is given gastrointestinally. Thus the aim of this study was to determine whether hepatic glucose uptake is impaired during an infection when glucose is given gastrointestinally. Thirty-six hours before study, a sham (SH, n = 7) or Escherichia coli-containing (2 x 10(9) organisms/kg; INF; n = 7) fibrin clot was placed in the peritoneal cavity of chronically catheterized dogs. After the 36 h, a glucose bolus (150 mg/kg) followed by a continuous infusion (8 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) of glucose was given intraduodenally to conscious dogs for 240 min. Tracer ([3-(3)H]glucose and [U-(14)C]glucose) and arterial-venous difference techniques were used to assess hepatic and intestinal glucose metabolism. Infection increased hepatic blood flow (35 +/- 5 vs. 47+/-3 ml x g(-1) x min(-1); SH vs. INF) and basal glucose rate of appearance (2.1+/-0.2 vs. 3.3+/-0.1 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1)). Arterial insulin concentrations increased similarly in SH and INF during the last hour of glucose infusion (38+/-8 vs. 46+/-20 microU/ml), and arterial glucagon concentrations fell (62+/-14 to 30+/-3 vs. 624+/-191 to 208+/-97 pg/ml). Net intestinal glucose absorption was decreased in INF, attenuating the increase in blood glucose caused by the glucose load. Despite this, net hepatic glucose uptake (1.6+/-0.8 vs. 2.4+/- 0.9 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1); SH vs. INF) and consequently tracer-determined glycogen synthesis (1.3+/-0.3 vs. 1.0+/-0.3 mg. kg(-1) x min(-1)) were similar between groups. In summary, infection impairs net glucose absorption, but not net hepatic glucose uptake or glycogen deposition, when glucose is given intraduodenally.  相似文献

L-[U-14C]Threonine was infused at a steady rate to non-anaesthetized rats starved for 1 or 3 days and to diabetic rats starved for 1 day. The rates of turnover of threonine, calculated from the equilibrium specific radioactivity (SA) of plasma threonine, were 5.79 +/- 1.00, 11.67 +/- 1.43 and 13.35 +/- 1.85 mumol/min per kg body wt. in 1-day-starved, 3-day-starved and diabetic rats respectively. The calculated turnover rate of threonine agreed well with the rate expected from the rate of protein turnover reported in the literature. The equilibrium SA of plasma alanine was 5.1-9.8% of that of threonine in the three groups of rats. The equilibrium SA of glucose was 1.42 and 2.90% of that of threonine in 1-day- and 3-day-starved rats respectively. From the non-equilibrium SA of glucose, it is estimated that a higher percentage of 14C atoms is transferred from threonine to glucose in diabetic than in non-diabetic rats. In spite of increases in gluconeogenesis from threonine in long-starved or diabetic rats, we conclude that threonine remains a minor contributor to plasma glucose. Since it is an essential amino acid, its turnover and contribution to the formation of plasma glucose is an index of catabolism and gluconeogenesis from tissue protein.  相似文献

Lactate metabolism in the perfused rat hindlimb.   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2       下载免费PDF全文
M Shiota  S Golden    J Katz 《The Biochemical journal》1984,222(2):281-292
A preparation of isolated rat hindleg was perfused with a medium consisting of bicarbonate buffer containing Ficoll and fluorocarbon, containing glucose and/or lactate. The leg was electrically prestimulated to deplete partially muscle glycogen. The glucose was labelled uniformly with 14C and with 3H in positions 2, 5 or 6, and lactate uniformly with 14C and with 3H in positions 2 or 3. Glucose carbon was predominantly recovered in glycogen, and to a lesser extent in lactate. The 3H/14C ration in glycogen from [5-3H,U-14C]- and [6-3H,U-14C]-glucose was the same as in glucose. Nearly all the utilized 3H from [2-3H]glucose was recovered as water. Insulin increased glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis 3-fold. When the muscle was perfused with a medium containing 10 mM-glucose and 2 mM-lactate, there was little change in lactate concentration. 14C from lactate was incorporated into glycogen. There was a marked exponential decrease in lactate specific radioactivity, much greater with [3H]- than with [14C]-lactate. The 'apparent turnover' of [U-14C]lactate was 0.28 mumol/min per g of muscle, and those of [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate were both about 0.7 mumol/min per g. With 10 mM-lactate as sole substrate, there was a net uptake of lactate, at a rate of about 0.15 mumol/min per g, and the apparent turnover of [U-14C]lactate was 0.3 mumol/min per g. The apparent turnover of [3H]lactate was 3-5 times greater. When glycogen synthesis was low (no prestimulation, no insulin), the incorporation of lactate carbon into glycogen exceeded that from glucose, but at high rates of glycogen deposition the incorporation of lactate carbon was much less than that of glucose. Lactate incorporation into glycogen was similar in fast-twitch white and fast-twitch red muscle, but was very low in slow-twitch red fibres. We find that (a) pyruvate in muscle is incorporated into glycogen without randomization of carbon, and synthesis is not inhibited by mercaptopicolinate or cycloserine; (b) there is extensive lactate turnover in the absence of net lactate uptake, and there is a large dilution of 14C-labelled lactate from endogenous supply; (c) there is extensive detritiation of [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate in excess of 14C utilization.  相似文献

These studies were done to examine the effects of body composition, resting energy expenditure (REE), sex, and fitness on basal and insulin-regulated FFA and glucose metabolism. We performed 137 experiments in 101 nondiabetic, premenopausal women and men, ranging from low normal weight to class III obese (BMI 18.0-40.5 kg/m2). Glucose flux was measured using [6-(2)H2]glucose and FFA kinetics with [9,10-(3)H]oleate under either basal (74 experiments) or euglycemic hyperinsulinemic (1.0 mU.kg FFM(-1).min(-1)) clamp conditions (63 experiments). Consistent with our previous findings, REE and sex independently predicted basal FFA flux, whereas fat-free mass was the best predictor of basal glucose flux; in addition, percent body fat was independently and positively associated with basal glucose flux (total r2 = 0.52, P < 0.0001). Insulin-suppressed lipolysis remained significantly associated with REE (r = 0.25, P < 0.05), but percent body fat also contributed (total adjusted r2 = 0.36, P < 0.0001), whereas sex was not significantly related to insulin-suppressed FFA flux. Glucose disposal during hyperinsulinemia was independently associated with peak VO2, percent body fat, and FFA concentrations (total r2 = 0.63, P < 0.0001) but not with sex. We conclude that basal glucose production is independently related to both FFM and body fatness. In addition, hyperinsulinemia obscures the sex differences in FFA release relative to REE, but brings out the effects of fatness on lipolysis.  相似文献

Whole body glucose uptake (BGU) and hepatic glucose production (HGP) at maximal plasma insulin concentrations (+/- 5000 microU/ml) were determined by eu- (EC) (6 mM) and hyperglycemic (HC) (20 mM) clamps (120 min), combined with [3-3H]glucose infusion, in normal and streptozotocin-treated (65 mg/kg) 3-day diabetic, conscious rats. In normal rats, during EC, BGU was 12.4 +/- 0.4 mg/min and during HC, when urinary glucose loss was 0.54 +/- 0.09 mg/min, BGU was 25.5 +/- 1.6 mg/min. However, throughout the final 60 min of HC, glucose infusion rate (GIR) was not constant but a linear decline in time (r = -0.99) of 17%, P less than 0.0001, was observed indicating a hyperglycemia-induced desensitization process. In diabetic rats, during EC, BGU was 7.7 +/- 0.3 mg/min and during HC, BGU was 15.5 +/- 1.4 mg/min. Throughout the final 60 min of HC, GIR was constant, suggesting that the hyperglycemia-induced desensitization process was already completed. In normal and diabetic rats, HGP was similar: during EC 0.2 +/- 0.5 mg/min and 0.1 +/- 0.5 mg/min, and during HC 0.4 +/- 0.4 mg/min and 0.5 +/- 0.6 mg/min, respectively. In vitro adipocyte and muscle insulin receptor studies showed normal to increased receptor number and increased receptor autophosphorylation in diabetic compared to normal rats. In conclusion: (i) 3-day diabetic rats show, at maximal plasma insulin concentrations, insulin resistance to BGU, but not to HGP. The resistance to BGU is equally present (reduction of 38%) at eu- and hyperglycemic levels as compared to normal rats. (ii) 3-day diabetic rats reveal no defect in adipocyte and muscle insulin receptor function. These data indicate that the diabetes induced insulin resistance for BGU is at the post-receptor level and due to a decreased maximal capacity (Vmax) for glucose uptake, with no change in affinity, or Km.  相似文献
