The influence of dopamine as compared with dobutamine on glucose homeostasis has been assessed in thyroidectomized euthyroid rats. Both sympathomimetic agents were given intravenously over 6 h at four dosages, varying from 2 to 30 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. Immediately before the end of the infusion period, serum concentrations of glucose and insulin as well as plasma glucagon concentrations were measured. Dobutamine infusions did not exert any influence on these parameters. At a dose of 7.5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1, dopamine infusion caused a decrease in glucose concentrations, accompanied by a rise of glucagon and insulin levels. Glucose levels were significantly increased in the presence of unaltered insulin and decreasing glucagon levels at higher dopamine doses. The rise in glucose levels was reversed by 8 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 and inverted to a decrease by 12 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 of the alpha-adrenergic blocking agent phentolamine, simultaneously infused with 15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 dopamine, while the insulin levels were increased and glucagon levels remained elevated. These findings demonstrate that dopamine acts on glucoregulation divergently, according to the dosage applied. The data suggest that dopamine rather than dobutamine treatment may disturb glucose homeostasis. 相似文献

Defects in insulin secretion and/or action contribute to the hyperglycemia of stressed and diabetic patients, and we hypothesize that failure to suppress glucagon also plays a role. We examined the chronic impact of glucagon on glucose uptake in chronically catheterized conscious depancreatized dogs placed on 5 days of nutritional support (NS). For 3 days of NS, a variable intraportal infusion of insulin was given to maintain isoglycemia (approximately 120 mg/dl). On day 3 of NS, animals received a constant low infusion of insulin (0.4 mU.kg-1.min-1) and either no glucagon (CONT), basal glucagon (0.7 ng.kg-1.min-1; BasG), or elevated glucagon (2.4 ng.kg-1.min-1; HiG) for the remaining 2 days. Glucose in NS was varied to maintain isoglycemia. An additional group (HiG+I) received elevated insulin (1 mU.kg-1.min-1) to maintain glucose requirements in the presence of elevated glucagon. On day 5 of NS, hepatic substrate balance was assessed. Insulin and glucagon levels were 10+/-2, 9+/-1, 7+/-1, and 24+/-4 microU/ml, and 24+/-5, 39+/-3, 80+/-11, and 79+/-5 pg/ml, CONT, BasG, HiG, and HiG+I, respectively. Glucagon infusion decreased the glucose requirements (9.3+/-0.1, 4.6+/-1.2, 0.9+/-0.4, and 11.3+/-1.0 mg.kg-1.min-1). Glucose uptake by both hepatic (5.1+/-0.4, 1.7+/-0.9, -1.0+/-0.4, and 1.2+/-0.4 mg.kg-1.min-1) and nonhepatic (4.2+/-0.3, 2.9+/-0.7, 1.9+/-0.3, and 10.2+/-1.0 mg.kg-1.min-1) tissues decreased. Additional insulin augmented nonhepatic glucose uptake and only partially improved hepatic glucose uptake. Thus, glucagon impaired glucose uptake by hepatic and nonhepatic tissues. Compensatory hyperinsulinemia restored nonhepatic glucose uptake and partially corrected hepatic metabolism. Thus, persistent inappropriate secretion of glucagon likely contributes to the insulin resistance and glucose intolerance observed in obese and diabetic individuals. 相似文献

To determine the effects of chronic hyperinsulinemia on glucagon release, rats were made hyperinsulinemic for 14 days by supplementation of drinking water with sucrose (10%; sucrose-fed) to increase endogenous release or by implantation of osmotic minipumps (subcutaneous, s.c.; or intraperitoneal, i.p.) to deliver exogenous insulin (6 U/day). Both s.c. and i.p. rats also had sucrose in the drinking water to prevent hypoglycemia. Plasma insulin levels were significantly elevated in sucrose-fed, s.c., and i.p. rats. However, glucose levels were significantly elevated in sucrose-fed rats only. Surprisingly, plasma glucagon concentrations were elevated in i.p. and s.c. rats and were not suppressed in sucrose-fed rats. Inverse relationships were found between the plasma levels of insulin and glucose (n = 65; r = -0.42, p less than 0.0001) and between glucose and glucagon (n = 73; r = -0.46, p less than 0.0001). However, unexpectedly, a positive correlation between insulin and glucagon (n = 65; r = 0.47, p less than 0.0001) was established. As suppression of plasma glucagon levels below basal was not observed in any of the hyperinsulinemic or hyperglycemic rats, we wished to establish further whether pancreatic glucagon release could be suppressed below basal levels in the rat by another means. Thus, high doses of somatostatin (50-100 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) were infused for 45 min into normal rats without or with a concomitant hyperinsulinemic, hyperglycemic glucose clamp. Somatostatin fully suppressed insulin, but although plasma glucagon levels were decreased by somatostatin infusion relative to saline-infused animals, there was still no suppression below basal levels.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The concentration of plasma glucose in insulin deprived pancreatectomized dogs was decreased from the basal 385 +/- 44 to 65 +/- 12 mg/dL by the infusion of 7 mU X kg-1 X min-1 insulin. During the infusion, the plasma concentration of immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) did not change and hepatic glucose production was decreased. This is in contrast to earlier findings in alloxan diabetic dogs in which plasma IRG decreased in hypoglycaemia. The hypothesis is put forward that, in contrast to pancreatic alpha cells in which the effect of insulin prevails, neither insulin nor a decrease in the ambient concentration of glucose exerts any effect on the secretion of glucagon from extrapancreatic alpha cells. 相似文献

Sixteen newly diagnosed non insulin dependent diabetic patients were treated for 3 months with an individual energy restricted diet. The effect on weight, hyperglycaemia and insulin response to oral glucose was measured in all subjects, and in 7, peripheral insulin resistance was estimated using a hyperinsulinaemic glucose clamp at two insulin infusion rates (40 and 400 mU m-2 X min-1). After diet, fasting plasma glucose fell from 12.0 +/- 0.7 mmol/l (mean +/- SEM) to 7.4 +/- 0.5 mmol/l (P less than 0.001) and weight fell from 92.9 +/- 4.2 kg to 85.0 +/- 3.1 kg (P less than 0.001). The plasma insulin response to oral glucose was unchanged after diet therapy. Insulin induced glucose disposal (M) was also unaffected by diet at insulin infusion rates of 40 mU m-2 X min-1 (12.5 +/- 1.5 mumol X kg-1 X min-1 vs 15.7 +/- 1.6 mumol X kg-1 X min-1) and 400 mU m-2 X min-1 (49.5 +/- 2.7 mumol X kg-1 X min-1 vs 55.1 +/- 2.5 mumol X kg-1 X min-1). These results show that 3 months reduction of energy consumption with weight loss in newly diagnosed non insulin dependent diabetics improves B-cell responsiveness to glucose but has no effect on liver glucose output or on peripheral insulin action. 相似文献

To define the role of inorganic electrolyte secretion in hepatic bile formation, the effects of secretin, glucagon, and differently structured bile acids on bile flow and composition were studied in the dog, guinea pig, and rat. In the dog and guinea pig, secretin (2.5-10 clinical units X kg-1 X 30 min-1) increased bile flow and bicarbonate concentration in bile, a finding consistent with the hypothesis that the hormone stimulates a bicarbonate-dependent secretion possibly at the level of the bile ductule-duct. In the rat, secretin (5-15 CU X kg-1 X 30 min-1) failed to increase bile secretion. Glucagon (1.25-300 micrograms X kg-1 X 30 min-1) increased bile flow in all the three species, and produced no changes in biliary bicarbonate concentrations in the dog and rat. In the guinea pig, however, glucagon choleresis was associated with an increase in bicarbonate concentration in bile, similar to that observed with secretin. The choleretic activities of various bile acids (taurocholate, chenodeoxycholate, glycochenodeoxycholate, tauroursodeoxycholate, and ursodeoxycholic acid, infused at 30-360 mumol X kg-1 X 30 min-1) were similar in the rat (6.9-7.2 microL/mumol), but different in the guinea pig (11-31 microL/mumol). In the latter species, the more hydrophobic the bile acid, the greater was its choleretic activity. In all instances, bile acid choleresis was associated with a decline in the biliary concentrations of chloride, but with no major change in bicarbonate levels.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Demonstration of a dawn phenomenon in normal adolescents 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To ascertain whether the dawn phenomenon occurs in normal adolescents and, if so, to determine its mechanism, we measured nocturnal plasma glucose, insulin, glucagon, growth hormone, cortisol, and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) levels between 01.00 and 08.00 h in 10 healthy adolescents. The prehepatic insulin secretion rate was calculated based on C peptide levels. The metabolic clearance rate of insulin (MCRI) was calculated as the ratio of mean insulin secretion rate to mean insulin concentration. There was no change in plasma glucose, insulin, and glucagon between 01.00-04.00 and 05.00-08.00 h (paired t test). The MCRI was higher at 05.00-08.00 h compared to 01.00-04.00 h (9.30 +/- 1.50 vs. 4.87 +/- 1.11 ml.kg-1.min-1; p = 0.008). The prehepatic insulin secretion increased at 05.00-08.00 h relative to 01.00-04.00 h (1.1 +/- 0.2 vs. 0.6 +/- 0.1 pmol.kg-1.min-1; p = 0.013). Similarly, cortisol and ACTH levels were higher at 05.00-08.00 versus 01.00-04.00 h (323 +/- 33 vs. 102 +/- 22 nmol/l, p less than 0.001; 3.6 +/- 0.5 vs. 1.8 +/- 0.4 pmol/l, p = 0.006, respectively). Growth hormone was higher at 01.00-04.00 versus 05.00-08.00 h (7.6 +/- 1.2 and 3.0 +/- 0.9 microgram/l; p = 0.019). ACTH correlated with MCRI (r = 0.66; p = 0.002) and prehepatic insulin secretion (r = 0.75; p less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Pharmacological doses of oxytocin affect plasma hormone levels modulating glucose homeostasis in normal man 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Pharmacological doses of oxytocin administered in basal conditions evoked a rapid surge in plasma glucose and glucagon levels followed by a later increase in plasma insulin and adrenaline levels. The effects of oxytocin on plasma glucagon and adrenaline levels were potentiated by hypoglycemia. When the endogenous pancreas secretion was suppressed by cyclic somatostatin (150 micrograms/h) and exogenous glucagon (3.5 micrograms/h) and insulin (0.2 mU/kg.min) were both replaced, oxytocin (0.2 U/min) evoked a transient but significant increase in plasma glucose levels suppressing the glucose infusion rate (GIR) in the first 60 min. On the contrary at higher insulin infusion rate (0.6 mU/kg.min) plasma glucose levels and GIR remained unaffected throughout the study. Oxytocin seems also to potentiate glucose-induced insulin secretion as evidenced by hyperglycemic glucose clamp. In conclusion, pharmacological doses of oxytocin seem to exert a prevalent hyperglycemic effect by a combined action at the liver site (as glycogenolytic agent) and at the endocrine pancreas (as a stimulatory agent of A cell secretion). 相似文献

The present experiment was designed to study the action of ACTH1-24 on insulin secretion during the circadian cycle in normal rabbits and to provide evidence that ACTH1-24 has an extra-adrenal effect on this secretion. In normal rabbits intravenous administration of three doses of ACTH1-24 (1, 10, 100 micrograms/kg) at 10 a. m. increased plasma insulin levels. Hyperglycemia only occurred with doses of 10 and 100 micrograms/kg. A maximum insulin response was already obtained at 1 micrograms/kg. The same experiment performed at 12 p. m. also induced hyperinsulinemia which was only noted at 10 and 100 micrograms/kg; hyperglycemia was only observed after stimulation by the highest dose (100 micrograms/kg). ACTH was therefore more effective during the day; however, at 12 p. m. plasma insulin levels were the highest, but only with the maximum dose of ACTH (100 micrograms/kg). The effect of ACTH1-24 was evaluated throughout the day on normal and adrenalectomized rabbits. In normal animals injection of ACTH1-24 increased plasma glucose and insulin levels both together. In the contrary, in rabbits deprived of adrenal glands, ACTH1-24 induced high insulinemia along with hypoglycemia. We could, therefore, reasonably conclude that ACTH stimulates directly the pancreatic secretion of insulin. 相似文献

Effects of highly potent octapeptide analogs of somatostatin on growth hormone, insulin and glucagon release 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Biological activities of highly potent octapeptide analogs of somatostatin (SS), D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Lys-Val-Cys-Trp-NH2 (RC-160) and D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Lys-Val-Cys-Thr-NH2 (RC-121), were investigated in male rats. When analog RC-160 was administered to rats in which serum growth hormone (GH) levels were elevated by pentobarbital anesthesia, a dose-related inhibition of GH was obtained at dose range of 0.1 to 2.5 micrograms/kg. The time course of GH inhibition by RC-160, RC-121 and SS-14 was studied in rats treated with phenobarbital, morphine and chlorpromazine. Analogs RC-160 and RC-121 induced a prolonged inhibition of GH levels, in contrast to SS-14, whose effect was short-lived. The analogs suppressed the GH level for more than 2 hr, the peak inhibition being seen 30 to 60 min after the injection. The effects of analogs RC-160 and RC-121 on insulin secretion were observed in rats, in which insulin levels had been elevated by intravenous administration of glucose (500 mg/rat). Administration of RC-160 suppressed insulin secretion, dose-dependently, maximum but not complete inhibition being achieved at a dose of 100 micrograms/kg. In this model, RC-160 and RC-121, in doses of 30 micrograms/kg, induced a similar inhibition of insulin release as 200 micrograms/kg of SS-14, whose action of SS-14 was transient. The effect of analog RC-160 on glucagon release was studied in rats with glucagon levels elevated by hypoglycemia. RC-160 suppressed the secretion of glucagon, the inhibition being dose-dependent in the range of 0.1 to 2 micrograms/kg. Doses of 2 and 10 micrograms/kg of this analog completely suppressed the hypoglycemia-induced glucagon release. These results indicate that analogs RC-160 and RC-121 possess prolonged and enhanced biological activities, the former analog showing a high selectivity in inhibiting GH and glucagon release in vivo as compared with that of insulin secretion. 相似文献

Failure of hyperketonemia to alter basal and insulin-mediated glucose metabolism in man 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of physiologic elevations of plasma hydroxybutyrate induced by the infusion of sodium D,L-beta-hydroxybutyrate (15 mumol X kg-1 X min-1) on carbohydrate metabolism was examined with the euglycemic insulin clamp technique in nine healthy volunteers. Plasma insulin concentration was acutely raised and maintained at 126 +/- 6 microU/ml and plasma glucose was held constant at the fasting level by a variable glucose infusion. Glucose uptake of 6.53 +/- 0.80 mg X kg-1 X min-1 was unchanged by hyperketonemia when compared with an intraindividual control study using saline instead of beta-OH-butyrate infusion (6.26 +/- 0.59 mg X kg-1 X min-1). In studies, in which the degree of metabolic alkalosis accompanying butyrate infusion was mimicked by the continuous administration of bicarbonate, glucose uptake was also unaffected (6.25 +/- 0.45 mg X kg-1 X min-1). Furthermore, hyperketonemia had no effect on basal glucose production or the suppression of hepatic glucose production following hyperinsulinemia. It is concluded that moderate elevations in plasma beta-hydroxy-butyrate do not alter hepatic or peripheral glucose metabolism. 相似文献

We wished to determine the effect of a 25% hematocrit reduction on glucoregulatory hormone release and glucose fluxes during exercise. In five anemic dogs, plasma glucose fell by 21 mg/dl and in five controls by 7 mg/dl by the end of the 90-min exercise period. After 50 min of exercise, hepatic glucose production (Ra) and glucose metabolic clearance rate (MCR) began to rise disproportionately in anemics compared with controls. By the end of exercise, the increase in Ra was almost threefold higher (delta 15.1 +/- 3.4 vs. delta 5.2 +/- 1.3 mg X kg-1 X min-1) and MCR nearly fourfold (delta 24.6 +/- 8.8 vs. delta 6.5 +/- 1.3 ml X kg-1 X min-1). Exercise with anemia, in relation to controls resulted in elevated levels of glucagon [immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) delta 1,283 +/- 507 vs delta 514 +/- 99 pg/ml], norepinephrine (delta 1,592 +/- 280 vs. delta 590 +/- 155 pg/ml), epinephrine (delta 2,293 +/- 994 vs. delta 385 +/- 186 pg/ml), cortisol (delta 6.7 +/- 2.2 vs. delta 2.1 +/- 1.0 micrograms/dl) and lactate (delta 12.1 +/- 2.2 vs. delta 4.2 +/- 1.8 mg/dl) after 90 min. Immunoreactive insulin and free fatty acids were similar in both groups. In conclusion, exercise with a 25% hematocrit reduction results in 1) elevated lactate, norepinephrine, epinephrine, cortisol, and IRG levels, 2) an increased Ra which is likely related to the increased counterregulatory response, and 3) we speculate that a near fourfold increase in MCR is related to metabolic changes due to hypoxia in working muscle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

In order to study the oeffect of somatostatin on the endocrine pancreas directly, islets isolated from rat pancreas by collagenase were incubated for 2 hrs 1) at 50 and 200 mg/100 ml glucose in the absence and presence of somatostatin (1, 10 and 100 mg/ml) and2) at 200 mg/100 ml glucose together with glucagon (5 mug/ml), with or without somatostatin (100 ng/ml). Immunologically measurable insulin was determined in the incubation media at 0, 1 and 2 hrs. Insulin release was not statistically affected by any concentration stomatostatin. On the other hand, somatostatin exerted a significant inhibitory action on glucagon-potentiated insulin secretion (mean +/- SEM, mu1/2 hrs/10 islets: glucose and glucagon: 1253 +/- 92; glucose, glucagon and somatostatin: 786 +/- 76). The insulin output in th epresence of glucose, glucagon and somatostatin was also significantly smaller than in thepresence of glucose alone (1104 +/- 126) or of glucose and somatostatin (1061 +/- 122). The failure of somatostatin to affect glucose-stimulated release of insulin from isolated islets contrasts its inhibitory action on insulin secretion as observed in the isolated perfused pancreas and in vivo. This discrepancy might be ascribed to the isolation procedure using collagenase. However, somatostatin inhibited glucagon-potentiated insulin secretion in isolated islets which resulted in even lower insulin levels than obtained in the parallel experiments without glucagon. It is concluded that the hormone of the alpha cells, or the cyclic AMP system, might play a part in the machanism of somatostatin-induced inhibition of insulin release from the beta-cell. 相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an intestinal hormone that stimulates insulin secretion and decreases glucagon release. It has been hypothesized that GLP-1 also reduces glycemia independent of its effect on islet hormones. Based on preliminary evidence that GLP-1 has independent actions on endogenous glucose production, we undertook a series of experiments that were optimized to address this question. The effect of GLP-1 on glucose appearance (Ra) and glucose disposal (Rd) was measured in eight men during a pancreatic clamp that was performed by infusing octreotide to suppress secretion of islet hormones, while insulin and glucagon were infused at rates adjusted to maintain blood glucose near fasting levels. After stabilization of plasma glucose and equilibration of [3H]glucose tracer, GLP-1 was given intravenously for 60 min. Concentrations of insulin, C-peptide, and glucagon were similar before and during the GLP-1 infusion (115 +/- 14 vs. 113 +/- 11 pM; 0.153 +/- 0.029 vs. 0.156 +/- 0.026 nM; and 64.7 +/- 11.5 vs. 65.8 +/- 13.8 ng/l, respectively). With the initiation of GLP-1, plasma glucose decreased in all eight subjects from steady-state levels of 4.8 +/- 0.2 to a nadir of 4.1 +/- 0.2 mM. This decrease in plasma glucose was accounted for by a significant 17% decrease in Ra, from 22.6 +/- 2.8 to 19.1 +/- 2.8 micromol. kg-1. min-1 (P < 0.04), with no significant change in Rd. These findings indicate that, under fasting conditions, GLP-1 decreases endogenous glucose production independent of its actions on islet hormone secretion. 相似文献

Hepatic blood volume responses were studied in cats using in vivo plethysmography. The maximal response (Rmax) to sympathetic nerve stimulation and to infusions of norepinephrine into the hepatic artery or portal vein was similar (12-14 mL expelled per liver in 2.9-kg cats; average liver weight, 76.8 +/- 6.8 g). The ED50 for norepinephrine intraportal (0.44 +/- 0.13) and intrahepatic arterial infusions (0.33 +/- 0.08 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) were similar indicating equal access of both blood supplies to the capacitance vessels. Adenosine (2.0 mg.kg-1.min-1) did not cause significant volume changes but produced a mild (27%) suppression of Rmax due to nerve stimulation with no change in the frequency (3.4 Hz) needed to produce 50% of Rmax. Rmax tended (not statistically significant) to decrease during glucagon (1.0 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) infusion but the nerve frequency needed to produce 50% of Rmax rose to 5.6 Hz. Thus both adenosine and glucagon produced modulation of sympathetic nerve-induced capacitance responses without having significant effects on basal blood volume. Adenosine, by virtue of its marked effects on arterial resistance vessels (at substantially lower doses than those used here) and the relative lack of effect on venous capacitance vessels, may be useful for producing clinical afterload reduction without venous pooling. 相似文献

Oxytocin has been suggested to have glucoregulatory functions in rats, man and other mammals. The hyperglycemic actions of oxytocin are believed to be mediated indirectly through changes in pancreatic function. The present study examined the interaction between glucose and oxytocin in normal and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, under basal conditions and after injections of oxytocin. Plasma glucose and endogenous oxytocin levels were significantly correlated in cannulated lactating rats (r = 0.44, P less than 0.01). To test the hypothesis that oxytocin was acting to elevate plasma glucose, adult male rats were injected with 10 micrograms/kg oxytocin and killed 60 min later. Oxytocin increased plasma glucose from 6.1 +/- 0.1 to 6.8 +/- 0.2 mM (P less than 0.05), and glucagon from 179 +/- 12 to 259 +/- 32 pg/ml (P less than 0.01, n = 18). There was no significant effect of oxytocin on plasma insulin, although the levels were increased by 30%. A lower dose (1 microgram/kg) of oxytocin had no significant effect on plasma glucose or glucagon. To eliminate putative local inhibitory effects of insulin on glucagon secretion, male rats were made diabetic by i.p. injection of 100 mg/kg STZ, which increased glucose to greater than 18 mM and glucagon to 249 +/- 25 pg/ml (P less than 0.05). In these rats, 10 micrograms/kg oxytocin failed to further increase plasma glucose, but caused a much greater increase in glucagon (to 828 +/- 248 pg/ml) and also increased plasma ACTH. A specific oxytocin analog, Thr4,Gly7-oxytocin, mimicked the effect of oxytocin on glucagon secretion in diabetic rats. The lower dose of oxytocin also increased glucagon levels (to 1300 +/- 250 pg/ml), but the effect was not significant. A 3 h i.v. infusion of 1 nmol/kg per h oxytocin in conscious male rats significantly increased glucagon levels by 30 min in normal and STZ-rats; levels returned to baseline by 30 min after stopping the infusion. Plasma glucose increased in the normal, but not STZ-rats. The relative magnitude of the increase in glucagon was identical for normal and diabetic rats, but the absolute levels of glucagon during the infusion were twice as high in the diabetics. To test whether hypoglycemia could elevate plasma levels of oxytocin, male rats were injected i.p. with insulin and killed from 15-180 min later. Plasma glucose levels dropped to less than 2.5 mM by 15 min. Oxytocin levels increased by 150-200% at 30 min; however, the effect was not statistically significant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Oxytocin (OT) infusion in normal dogs increases plasma insulin and glucagon levels and increases rates of glucose production and uptake. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the effects of OT on glucose metabolism were direct or indirect. The studies were carried out in normal, unanesthetized dogs in which OT infusion was superimposed on infusion of either somatostatin, which suppresses insulin and glucagon secretion, or clonidine, which suppresses insulin secretion only. Infusion of 0.2 microgram/kg/min of somatostatin suppressed basal levels of plasma insulin and glucagon and inhibited the OT-induced rise of these hormones by about 60-80% of that seen with OT alone. The rates of glucose production and uptake by tissues, measured with [6-3H] glucose, were significantly lower than those seen with OT alone, and the rise in glucose clearance was completely inhibited. Clonidine (30 micrograms/kg, sc), given along with an insulin infusion to replace basal levels of insulin, completely prevented the OT-induced rise in plasma insulin and markedly reduced the glucose uptake seen with OT alone, but did not reduce the usual increase in plasma glucose and glucagon levels or glucose production. To determine whether the OT-induced rise in plasma insulin was in response to the concomitant increase in plasma glucose, similar plasma glucose levels were established in normal dogs by a continuous infusion of glucose and an OT infusion was superimposed. OT did not raise plasma glucose levels further, but plasma insulin levels were increased, indicating that OT can stimulate insulin secretion independently of the plasma glucose changes. Studies by others have shown that the addition of OT to pancreatic islets or intact pancreas can stimulate insulin and glucagon secretion, indicating a direct effect. Our studies agree with that and suggest that in vivo, OT raises plasma insulin levels, at least in part, through a direct action on the pancreas. These studies also show that OT increases glucose production by increasing glucagon secretion and, in addition, a direct effect of OT on glucose production is likely. The OT-induced increase in glucose uptake is mediated largely by increased insulin secretion. 相似文献

Glucose clamp experiments were performed in 27 chronically catheterized, late-gestation fetal lambs in order to measure the effect of fetal insulin concentration on fetal glucose uptake at a constant glucose concentration. Fetal arterial blood glucose concentration was measured over a 30-min control period and then maintained at the control value by a variable glucose infusion into the fetus while insulin was infused at a constant rate into the fetus. Plasma insulin concentration increased from 21 +/- 10 (SD) to 294 +/- 179 (SD) microU X ml-1. The exogenous glucose infusion rate necessary to maintain constant glycemia during the plateau hyperinsulinemia averaged 4.3 +/- 1.6 (SD) mg X min-1 X kg-1. In a subset of 13 animals, total fetal exogenous glucose uptake (FGU; sum of glucose uptake from the placenta via the umbilical circulation plus the steady-state exogenous glucose infusion rate) was measured during the control and hyperinsulinemia period. FGU was directly related to insulin concentration (y = 4.24 + 0.07x) at insulin levels less than 100 microU/ml and increased 132% above control at insulin levels above 100 microU/ml. Hyperinsulinemia did not affect fetal glucose uptake from the placenta via the umbilical circulation. These studies demonstrate that insulin concentration is a major factor controlling glucose uptake in the near-term fetal lamb, and that an increase of fetal insulin does not affect the transport of glucose to the fetus from the placenta. 相似文献

Numerous studies have shown a rise of blood sugar concentrations and serum levels of pancreatic polypeptides after pharmacological doses of beta-endorphin. We tested the yet unknown influence of physiological fluctuations in beta-endorphin serum levels on glucose homeostasis by stimulating the pituitary secretion with CRF. 100 micrograms of human CRF or saline solution were intravenously injected in ten healthy male subjects at least one week apart. beta-endorphin serum levels rose significantly after the injection of CRF, but there was no change in blood sugar concentrations or serum levels of glucagon or insulin at all. We conclude that only a pharmacological dose of beta-endorphin influences glucose homeostasis. 相似文献

Eight athletes (T), studied the third morning after the last exercise session, and seven sedentary males (C) (maximal O2 consumption 65 +/- 4 vs. 49 +/- 4 (SE) ml X kg-1 X min-1, for T and C men, respectively) had insulin infused until plasma glucose, at an insulin level of 1,600 pmol X l-1, was 1.9 mmol X l-1. Glucose turnover was determined by primed constant rate infusion of 3-[3H]glucose. Basal C-peptide (0.46 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.73 +/- 0.06 pmol X ml-1) and glucagon (4 +/- 0.4 vs. 10 +/- 2 pmol X l-1) were lower (P less than 0.05) and epinephrine higher (0.30 +/- 0.06 vs. 0.09 +/- 0.03 nmol X l-1) in T than in C subjects. During and after insulin infusion production, disappearance and clearance of glucose changed identically in T and C subjects. However, in spite of identical plasma glucose concentrations, epinephrine (7.88 +/- 0.99 vs. 3.97 +/- 0.40 nmol X l-1), growth hormone (97 +/- 17 vs. 64 +/- 6 mU X l-1), and pancreatic polypeptide (361 +/- 84 vs. 180 +/- 29 pmol X l-1) reached higher levels (P less than 0.05) and glucagon (28 +/- 3 vs. 47 +/- 10 pmol X l-1) lower levels in T than in C subjects. Blood pressures changed earlier in athletes during insulin infusion, and early recovery of heart rate, free fatty acid, and glycerol was faster. Responses of norepinephrine, cortisol, C-peptide, and lactate were similar in the two groups. Training radically changes hormonal responses but not glucose kinetics in insulin hypoglycemia. 相似文献
