Chronic nicotinic acid (NA) ingestion effectively lowers lipid levels, but adverse effects on glucose metabolism have been reported. Our goal was to investigate acute and chronic effects of NA on lipolysis and glucose metabolism in women. Healthy normolipidemic volunteers (n = 5) were studied twice; four-day hospital stays were separated by 1 mo, during which time subjects took increasing doses of NA to 2 g/day (500 mg, 4 times). In the second study, 500 mg of NA was given at 0800. Rates of appearance (R(a)) of free fatty acid (FFA), glycerol, and glucose were determined by isotope dilution (of [1,2,3,4-(13)C(4)]palmitate, [2-(13)C(1)]glycerol, and [U-(13)C(6)]glucose). Mass isotopomer distribution analysis was used to measure gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. Fasting FFA concentrations ([FFA]), R(a) FFA, and R(a) glycerol were nonsignificantly elevated after 1 mo. Acute NA induced a significant reduction followed by a rebound overshoot of [FFA], R(a) FFA, and R(a) glycerol. Whole body fat oxidation fell initially and then increased back to basal levels; endogenous glucose production (EGP) increased in parallel with carbohydrate oxidation and then returned to basal values. The increased EGP was due entirely to increased glycogenolysis, not gluconeogenesis. We conclude that chronic effects of NA on FFA metabolism are complex (acute suppression followed by overshoot of R(a) FFA and [FFA] on top of a trend toward basal elevations), that responses after NA are consistent with operation of a glucose-fatty acid cycle in peripheral tissues, and that secondary effects on EGP were through changes in glycogenolysis, not gluconeogenesis.  相似文献

Metabolic and hormonal responses to prolonged treadmill exercise in dogs fed a fat-enriched meal 4 h prior to the exercise were compared to those measured 4 h after a mixed meal or in the postabsorptive state. Ingestion of the fat-enriched meal caused significant elevations in the resting values of plasma triglyceride (TG), free fatty acid (FFA), and glycerol concentrations. A reduction of the plasma TG concentration (from 1.6 +/- 0.2 to 1.1 +/- 0.10 mmol X l-1, P less than 0.005) occurred only in dogs exercising after the fat-enriched meal. No significant changes in this variable were noted in dogs fed a mixed meal, whilst in the postabsorptive state exercise caused an increase in the plasma TG level (from 0.42 +/- 0.03 to 0.99 +/- 0.11 mmol X l-1, P less than 0.01). The exercise-induced elevations in plasma FFA and glycerol concentrations were the highest in the dogs given the fat-enriched meal. Plasma glycerol during exercise correlated with the initial values of circulating TG (r = 0.73). The plasma FFA-glycerol ratio, at the end of exercise was lowest in the dogs taking the fat-enriched meal (1.39 +/- 0.19), suggesting an increased utilization of FFA in comparison with that in the postabsorptive state (3.27 +/- 0.37) or after a mixed meal (2.88 +/- 0.55). Basal serum insulin (IRI) concentrations were similarly enhanced in dogs fed fat-enriched and mixed meals, and they were reduced to control values within 60 min of exercise.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays a key role in the receptor-mediated uptake of lipoproteins by the liver and therefore in regulating plasma levels of lipoproteins. ApoE may also facilitate hepatic secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride (TG). We directly tested the hypothesis that reconstitution of hepatic apoE expression in adult apoE-deficient mice by gene transfer would acutely enhance VLDL-TG production and directly compared the three major human apoE isoforms using this approach. Second generation recombinant adenoviruses encoding the three major isoforms of human apoE (E2, E3, and E4) or a control virus were injected intravenously into apoE-deficient mice, resulting in acute expression of the apoE isoforms in the liver. Despite the expected decreases in total and VLDL cholesterol levels, apoE expression was associated with increased total and VLDL triglyceride levels (E2 > E4 > E3). The increase in TG levels significantly correlated with plasma apoE concentrations. In order to determine whether acute apoE expression influenced the rate of VLDL-TG production, additional experiments were performed. Three days after injection of adenoviruses, Triton WR1339 was injected to block lipolysis of TG-rich lipoproteins and VLDL-TG production rates were determined. Mice injected with control adenovirus had a mean VLDL-TG production rate of 74 +/- 7 micromol/h/kg. In contrast, VLDL-TG production rates in apoE-expressing mice were 363 +/- 162 micromol/h/kg, 286 +/- 175 micromol/h/kg, and 300 +/- 84 micromol/h/kg for apoE2, apoE3, and apoE4, respectively. The VLDL-TG production rates in apoE-expressing mice were all significantly greater than in control mice but were not significantly different from each other. In summary, acute expression of all three human apoE isoforms in livers of apoE-deficient mice markedly increased VLDL-TG production to a similar degree, consistent with the concept that apoE plays an important role in facilitating hepatic VLDL-TG production in an isoform-independent manner.  相似文献

These studies were conducted to understand the relationship between measures of systemic free fatty acid (FFA) reesterification and regional FFA, glycerol, and triglyceride metabolism during fasting. Indirect calorimetry was used to measure fatty acid oxidation in six men after a 60-h fast. Systemic and regional (splanchnic, renal, and leg) FFA ([(3)H]palmitate) and glycerol ([(3)H]glycerol) kinetics, as well as splanchnic triglyceride release, were measured. The rate of systemic FFA reesterification was 366 +/- 93 micromol/min, which was greater (P < 0.05) than splanchnic triglyceride fatty acid output (64 +/- 6 micromol/min), a measure of VLDL triglyceride fatty acid export. The majority of glycerol uptake occurred in the splanchnic and renal beds, although some leg glycerol uptake was detected. Systemic FFA release was approximately double that usually present in overnight postabsorptive men, yet the regional FFA release rates were of the same proportions previously observed in overnight postabsorptive men. In conclusion, FFA reesterification at rest during fasting far exceeds splanchnic triglyceride fatty acid output. This indicates that nonhepatic sites of FFA reesterification are important, and that peripheral reesterification of FFA exceeds the rate of simultaneous intracellular triglyceride fatty acid oxidation.  相似文献

We have previously shown that sex and obesity independently affect basal very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-triglyceride (TG) kinetics. In the present study, we investigated the effect of hyperglycemia-hyperinsulinemia on VLDL-TG kinetics in lean and obese men and women (n = 6 in each group). VLDL-TG kinetics were measured during basal, postabsorptive conditions and during glucose infusion (5.5 mg x kg FFM(-1) x min(-1)) by using [(2)H(5)]glycerol bolus injection in conjunction with compartmental modeling analysis. Basal VLDL-TG secretion in plasma was greater in obese than in lean men (7.8 +/- 0.6 and 2.9 +/- 0.4 micromol x l plasma(-1) x min(-1); P < 0.001) but was not different in lean and obese women (5.0 +/- 1.1 and 5.9 +/- 1.1 micromol x l plasma(-1) x min(-1)). Glucose infusion decreased the VLDL-TG secretion rate by approximately 50% in lean and obese men and in lean women (to 1.5 +/- 0.4, 4.0 +/- 0.6, and 2.2 +/- 0.4 micromol x l plasma(-1) x min(-1), respectively; all P < 0.05) but had no effect on the VLDL-TG secretion rate in obese women (4.9 +/- 1.0 micromol x l plasma(-1) x min(-1)). These results demonstrate that both sex and adiposity affect the regulation of VLDL-TG metabolism. Glucose and insulin decrease VLDL-TG production in both lean men and lean women; obesity is associated with resistance to the glucose- and insulin-mediated suppression of VLDL-TG secretion in women, but not in men.  相似文献

One of the strategies to prevent insulin resistance is to reduce circulating free fatty acids (FFA). The aim of this study is to assess the effect of an oral lactulose load on fatty acid metabolism in overweight subjects. Eight overweight subjects received a primed constant intravenous infusion of [1-(13)C]acetate and of [1,1,2,3,3-(2)H(5)]glycerol for 9 h. After 3 h of tracer infusion, patients ingested 30 g lactulose, or saline solution. Arterialized blood samples were collected every 20 min. Basal plasma concentrations of acetate were similar before and between oral treatments as well as glycerol and FFA concentrations. Plasma acetate turnover was 11.4 +/- 2.4 vs. 10.7 +/- 1.4 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1) [not significant (NS)], and plasma glycerol turnover was 3.8 +/- 0.4 vs. 4.8 +/- 1.9 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1) (NS). After lactulose ingestion, acetate concentration increased twofold and then decreased to baseline. Acetate turnover rate increased to 15.5 +/- 2.2 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1) after lactulose treatment, whereas it was unchanged after saline treatment (10.3 +/- 2.2 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1), P < or = 0.0001). In contrast, FFA concentrations decreased significantly after lactulose ingestion and then increased slowly. Glycerol turnover decreased after lactulose ingestion compared with saline, 2.8 +/- 0.4 vs. 3.5 +/- 0.3 micromol.kg(-1).min(-1) (P < or = 0.05). A significant negative correlation was found between glycerol and acetate turnover after lactulose treatments (r = -0.78, P < or = 0.02). These results showed in overweight subjects a short-term decrease in FFA level and glycerol turnover after lactulose ingestion related to a decrease of lipolysis in close relationship with an increase of acetate production.  相似文献

On the basis of the finding that plasma glycerol concentration is not controlled by clearance in healthy humans, it has been proposed that elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA) and glycerol concentrations in cirrhotic subjects are caused by accelerated lipolysis. This proposal has not been validated. We infused 10 volunteers, 10 cirrhotic subjects, and 10 patients after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) with [1-(13)C]palmitate and [(2)H(5)]glycerol to compare fluxes (R(a)) and FFA oxidation. Cirrhotic subjects had higher plasma palmitate (52%) and glycerol (33%) concentrations than controls. Palmitate R(a) was faster (1.45+/-0.18 vs. 0.85+/-0.17 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) but glycerol R(a) and clearance slower (1.20+/-0.09 vs. 1.90+/-0.24 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1) and 21.2+/-1.2 vs. 44.7+/- 4.9 ml x kg(-) x h(-1), respectively) than in controls. After OLT, plasma palmitate and glycerol concentrations and palmitate R(a) did not differ, but glycerol R(a) (1.16+/-0.11 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) and clearance (26.7+/-2.4 ml x kg(-1) x h(-1)) were slower than in controls. We conclude that 1) impaired reesterification, not accelerated lipolysis, elevates FFA in cirrhotic subjects; 2) normalized FFA after OLT masks impaired reesterification; and 3) plasma glycerol concentration poorly reflects lipolytic rate in cirrhosis and after OLT.  相似文献

Our group (Magkos F, Wright DC, Patterson BW, Mohammed BS, Mittendorfer B, Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab 290: E355-E362, 2006) has recently demonstrated that a single, prolonged bout of moderate-intensity cycling (2 h at 60% of peak oxygen consumption) in the evening increases basal whole-body free fatty acid (FFA) flux and fat oxidation, decreases hepatic VLDL-apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) secretion, and enhances removal efficiency of VLDL-triglyceride (TG) from the circulation the following day in untrained, healthy, lean men. In the present study, we investigated the effect of a single, shorter-duration bout of the same exercise (1 h cycling at 60% of peak oxygen consumption) on basal FFA, VLDL-TG, and VLDL-apoB-100 kinetics in seven untrained, healthy, lean men by using stable isotope-labeled tracer techniques. Basal FFA rate of appearance in plasma and plasma FFA concentration were approximately 55% greater (P < 0.05) the morning after exercise than rest, whereas resting metabolic rate and whole-body substrate oxidation rates were not different after rest and exercise. Exercise had no effect on plasma VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 concentrations, hepatic VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 secretion rates, and VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 plasma clearance rates (all P > 0.05). We conclude that in untrained, healthy, lean men 1) the exercise-induced changes in basal whole-body fat oxidation, VLDL-TG, and VLDL-apoB-100 metabolism during the late phase of recovery from exercise are related to the duration of the exercise bout; 2) single sessions of typical recreational activities appear to have little effect on basal, fasting plasma TG homeostasis; and 3) there is a dissociation between systemic FFA availability and VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 secretion by the liver.  相似文献

Overproduction of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) is the major characteristic of subjects with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL). As enhanced free fatty acid (FFA) flux to the liver may be one of the determinants of VLDL overproduction, we studied FFA changes and products of hepatic FFA metabolism in response to a 24-h oral fat loading test (50 g/m(2)) in 7 FCHL subjects and 7 matched control subjects. The response to the meal was subdivided into a postprandial (up to 8 h after ingestion of the meal) and postabsorptive period (from 8 to 24 h). Although postheparin plasma lipolytic activities were not different between both groups, the postprandial FFA area under the curve (FFA-AUC) and FFA incremental area under the curve (FFA-dAUC) were higher in FCHL subjects than in control subjects (6.05 +/- 0.45 vs. 3.43 +/- 0.46 and 2.60 +/- 0.49 vs. 0.96 +/- 0.31 mmol. h/L, respectively; P < 0.01 for each). The postprandial increase in ketone bodies was almost four times higher in FCHL patients. As ketogenesis occurs predominantly in hepatocytes, these findings suggest that during the postprandial period in FCHL an increased flux of FFA to the liver occurs, possibly because of inadequate incorporation of FFA into triglycerides (TGs) in adipocytes. In the postabsorptive period, FFA and ketone bodies significantly decreased in FCHL subjects, in contrast to control subjects, in whom both increased. These results may represent a diminished release of FFA from adipocytes by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) in FCHL patients. The decrease in postabsorptive FFA and ketone bodies in FCHL patients could not be explained by insulin-mediated inhibition of HSL, as both FCHL subjects and control subjects had similar postabsorptive insulin concentrations, which were below fasting concentrations.This study provides in vivo evidence of impaired metabolism of postprandial FFA in FCHL, which may explain in part the hepatic VLDL overproduction characteristic of FCHL subjects.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to assess whether a standard hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp can provide an estimate for the antilipolytic insulin sensitivity. For this purpose, we infused 9 non-obese, healthy volunteers with [2H5]glycerol and used the glycerol rate of appearance (Ra) in plasma as an index for systemic lipolysis during a standard (1 mU/kg x min, 120 min) and a 3-step (0.1, 0.25, 1.0 mU/kg x min) hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. The insulin concentration, which half-maximally suppressed lipolysis (EC50) in the three-step clamp, was considered to be the gold standard for the antilipolytic insulin sensitivity. Glycerol Ra decreased from 1.53+/-0.11 micromol/kg x min to 0.60+/-0.09 micromol/kg x min (p <0.001) during the standard clamp. The decrease in Ra at most time points during the standard clamp significantly correlated with the EC50. The highest correlation for the % decrease of glycerol Ra from baseline was found at 60 min (r = 0.96, p < 0.001) making this parameter a useful index for the antilipoytic insulin sensitivity. Neither plasma glycerol nor plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations were significantly correlated with the EC50. In conclusion, the standard hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp in combination with isotopic determination of glycerol Ra provides a reasonable estimate for the antilipolytic insulin sensitivity. In healthy subjects, the parameter best suited to estimate the insulin EC50 (by linear correlation) was the percentage decrease of glycerol Ra at 60 min.  相似文献

A single bout of strenuous endurance exercise reduces fasting plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations the next day (12-24 h later) by augmenting the efficiency of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG removal from the circulation. Although much of the hypotriglyceridemia associated with training is attributed to the last bout of exercise, the relevant changes in VLDL-TG metabolism have never been investigated. We therefore examined basal VLDL-TG kinetics in a group of sedentary young men (n=7) who underwent 2 mo of supervised high-intensity interval training (3 sessions/wk; running at 60 and 90% of peak oxygen consumption in 4-min intervals for a total of 32 min; gross energy expenditure: 446+/-29 kcal) and a nonexercising control group (n=8). Each subject completed two stable isotope-labeled tracer infusion studies in the postabsorptive state, once before and again after the intervention (approximately 48 h after the last exercise bout in the training group). Peak oxygen consumption increased by approximately 18% after training (P 0.7) in VLDL-TG plasma clearance rate and the mean residence time of VLDL-TG in the circulation. No significant changes in VLDL-TG concentration and kinetics were observed in the nonexercising control group (all P >or= 0.3). We conclude that a short period of high-intensity interval aerobic training lowers the rate of VLDL-TG secretion by the liver in previously sedentary men. This is different from the mechanism underlying the hypotriglyceridemia of acute exercise; however, it remains to be established whether our finding reflects an effect of the longer time lapse from the last exercise bout, an effect specific to the type of exercise performed, or an effect of aerobic training itself.  相似文献

We examined the effects of exercise intensity and a 10-wk cycle ergometer training program [5 days/wk, 1 h, 75% peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak)] on plasma free fatty acid (FFA) flux, total fat oxidation, and whole body lipolysis in healthy male subjects (n = 10; age = 25.6 +/- 1.0 yr). Two pretraining trials (45 and 65% of VO2 peak) and two posttraining trials (same absolute workload, 65% of old VO2 peak; and same relative workload, 65% of new VO2 peak) were performed by using an infusion of [1-13C]palmitate and [1,1,2,3, 3-2H]glycerol. An additional nine subjects (age 25.4 +/- 0.8 yr) were treated similarly but were infused with [1,1,2,3,3-2H]glycerol and not [1-13C]palmitate. Subjects were studied postabsorptive for 90 min of rest and 1 h of cycling exercise. After training, subjects increased VO2 peak by 9.4 +/- 1.4%. Pretraining, plasma FFA kinetics were inversely related to exercise intensity with rates of appearance (Ra) and disappearance (Rd) being significantly higher at 45 than at 65% VO2 peak (Ra: 8.14 +/- 1.28 vs. 6.64 +/- 0.46, Rd: 8. 03 +/- 1.28 vs. 6.42 +/- 0.41 mol. kg-1. min-1) (P 相似文献

Lipids are important substrates for oxidation at rest and during exercise. Aerobic exercise mediates a delayed onset decrease in total and VLDL-triglyceride (TG) plasma concentration. However, the acute effects of exercise on VLDL-TG oxidation and turnover remain unclear. Here, we studied the acute effects of 90 min of moderate-intensity exercise in healthy women and men. VLDL-TG kinetics were assessed using a primed constant infusion of ex vivo labeled [1-(14)C]triolein VLDL-TG. Fractional VLDL-TG-derived fatty acid oxidation was measured from (14)CO(2) specific activity in expired air. VLDL-TG concentration was unaltered during exercise and early recovery, whereas non-VLDL-TG concentration decreased significantly.VLDL-TG secretion rate decreased significantly during exercise and remained suppressed during recovery. Total VLDL-TG oxidation rate was unaffected by exercise. However, the contribution of VLDL-TG oxidation to total energy expenditure fell from 14 ± 9% at rest to 3 ± 4% during exercise. We conclude that VLDL-TG fatty acids are quantitatively important oxidative substrates under basal postabsorptive conditions but remain unaffected during 90-min moderate-intensity exercise and, thus, become relatively less important during exercise. Lower VLDL secretion rate during exercise may contribute to the decrease in TG concentrations during and after exercise.  相似文献

Dyslipidemia, manifested by increased plasma triglyceride (TG), increased total and LDL-cholesterol concentrations and decreased HDL-cholesterol concentration, is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Premenopausal women have a less atherogenic plasma lipid profile and a lower risk of cardiovascular disease than men, but this female advantage disappears after menopause. This suggests that female sex steroids affect lipoprotein metabolism. The impact of variations in the availability of ovarian hormones during the menstrual cycle on lipoprotein metabolism is not known. We therefore investigated whether very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG and VLDL-apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) kinetics are different during the follicular (FP) and luteal phases (LP) of the menstrual cycle. We studied seven healthy, premenopausal women (age 27 +/- 2 yr, BMI 25 +/- 2 kg/m(2)) once during FP and once during LP. We measured VLDL-TG, VLDL-apoB-100, and plasma free fatty acid (FFA) kinetics by using stable isotope-labeled tracers, VLDL subclass profile by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, whole body fat oxidation by indirect calorimetry, and the plasma concentrations of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) by ELISA. VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 concentrations in plasma, VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 secretion rates and mean residence times, VLDL subclass distribution, FFA concentration and rate of appearance in plasma, whole body substrate oxidation, and LPL and HL concentrations in plasma were not different during the FP and the LP. We conclude that VLDL-TG and VLDL-apoB-100 metabolism is not affected by menstrual cycle phase.  相似文献

This study investigated the effect of reduced free fatty acid (FFA) availability on pyruvate dehydrogenase activation (PDHa) and carbohydrate metabolism during moderate aerobic exercise. Eight active male subjects cycled for 40 min at 55% Vo(2 peak) on two occasions. During one trial, subjects ingested 20 mg/kg body mass of the antilipolytic drug nicotinic acid (NA) during the hour before exercise to reduce FFA. Nothing was ingested in the control trial (CON). Blood and expired gas measurements were obtained throughout the trials, and muscle biopsy samples were obtained immediately before exercise and at 5, 20, and 40 min of exercise. Plasma FFA were lower in the NA trial (0.13 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.48 +/- 0.03 mM, P < 0.05), and the respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was increased with NA (0.93 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.89 +/- 0.01, P < 0.05), resulting in a 14.5 +/- 1.8% increase in carbohydrate oxidation compared with CON. PDHa increased rapidly in both trials at exercise onset but was approximately 15% higher (P < 0.05) throughout exercise in the NA trial (2.44 +/- 0.19 and 2.07 +/- 0.12 mmol x kg wet muscle(-1) x min(-1) for NA and CON at 40 min). Muscle glycogenolysis was 15.3 +/- 9.6% greater in the NA trial vs. the CON trial but did not reach statistical significance. Glucose 6-phosphate contents were elevated (P < 0.05) in the NA trial at 30 and 40 min of exercise, but pyruvate and lactate contents were unaffected. These data demonstrate that the reduction of exogenous FFA availability increased the activation of PDH and carbohydrate oxidation during moderate aerobic exercise in men. The increased activation of PDH was not explained by changes in muscle pyruvate or the ATP/ADP ratio but may be related to a decrease in the NADH/NAD(+) ratio or an epinephrine-induced increase in calcium concentration.  相似文献

Five men were studied during exercise to exhaustion on an electrically braked cycle ergometer at 70% of VO2max. The four experimental treatments were as follows: fasted for 36 h (A); fasted (36 h) and refed with glucose (B) or glycerol (C); postabsorptive (overnight fast, D). In B and C the subjects were given a drink containing glucose or glycerol (1g per kg body weight) 45 min before starting exercise. A placebo drink was given 45 min before exercise on treatments A and D. Despite an increased availability of circulating free fatty acids, beta-hydroxybutyrate and glycerol exercise time to exhaustion was significantly lower after fasting (treatment A 77.7 +/- 6.8 min) compared with treatment D (119.5 +/- 5.8 min). Refeeding with glucose or glycerol did not significantly improve performance (92.4 +/- 11.8 min and 80.8 +/- 3.6 min respectively) compared with treatment A and lowered circulating levels of FFA and beta-HB during exercise compared with A. Despite the probability of low liver glycogen levels after fasting, none of the subjects became hypoglycaemic (blood glucose less than 4 mmol.l-1) during exercise and their blood lactate concentrations were not high at exhaustion. Plasma levels of branched chain amino acids (BCAA) decreased progressively during exercise on treatments A, B and C and were considerably lower at exhaustion compared with treatment D. Falling plasma concentrations of BCAA during prolonged exercise may be implicated in the generation of central fatigue.  相似文献

Elevated plasma FFA cause beta-cell lipotoxicity and impair insulin secretion in nondiabetic subjects predisposed to type 2 diabetes mellitus [T2DM; i.e., with a strong family history of T2DM (FH+)] but not in nondiabetic subjects without a family history of T2DM. To determine whether lowering plasma FFA with acipimox, an antilipolytic nicotinic acid derivative, may enhance insulin secretion, nine FH+ volunteers were admitted twice and received in random order either acipimox or placebo (double-blind) for 48 h. Plasma glucose/insulin/C-peptide concentrations were measured from 0800 to 2400. On day 3, insulin secretion rates (ISRs) were assessed during a +125 mg/dl hyperglycemic clamp. Acipimox reduced 48-h plasma FFA by 36% (P < 0.001) and increased the plasma C-peptide relative to the plasma glucose concentration or DeltaC-peptide/Deltaglucose AUC (+177%, P = 0.02), an index of improved beta-cell function. Acipimox improved insulin sensitivity (M/I) 26.1 +/- 5% (P < 0.04). First- (+19 +/- 6%, P = 0.1) and second-phase (+31 +/- 6%, P = 0.05) ISRs during the hyperglycemic clamp also improved. This was particularly evident when examined relative to the prevailing insulin resistance [1/(M/I)], as both first- and second-phase ISR markedly increased by 29 +/- 7 (P < 0.05) and 41 +/- 8% (P = 0.02). There was an inverse correlation between fasting FFA and first-phase ISR (r2 = 0.31, P < 0.02) and acute (2-4 min) glucose-induced insulin release after acipimox (r2 =0.52, P < 0.04). In this proof-of-concept study in FH+ individuals predisposed to T2DM, a 48-h reduction of plasma FFA improves day-long meal and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. These results provide additional evidence for the important role that plasma FFA play regarding insulin secretion in FH+ subjects predisposed to T2DM.  相似文献

Hepatic VLDL and glucose production is enhanced in type 2 diabetes and associated with hepatic steatosis. Whether the derangements in hepatic metabolism are attributable to steatosis or to the increased availability of FA metabolites is not known. We used methyl palmoxirate (MP), an inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyl transferase I, to acutely inhibit hepatic FA oxidation and investigated whether the FAs were rerouted into VLDL secretion and whether this would affect hepatic glucose production. After an overnight fast, male APOE3*Leiden transgenic mice received an oral dose of 10 mg/kg MP. Administration of MP led to an 83% reduction in plasma beta-hydroxybutyrate (ketone body) levels compared with vehicle-treated mice (0.47 +/- 0.07 vs. 2.81 +/- 0.16 mmol/l, respectively; P < 0.01), indicative of impaired ketogenesis. Plasma FFA levels were increased by 32% and cholesterol and insulin levels were decreased by 17% and 50%, respectively, in MP-treated mice compared with controls. MP treatment led to a 30% increase in liver triglyceride (TG) content. Surprisingly, no effect on hepatic VLDL-TG production was observed between the groups at 8 h after MP administration. In addition, the capacity of insulin to suppress endogenous glucose production was unaffected in MP-treated mice compared with controls. In conclusion, acute inhibition of FA oxidation increases hepatic lipid content but does not stimulate hepatic VLDL secretion or reduce insulin sensitivity.  相似文献

Intramuscular triacylglycerols (IMTG) are proposed to be an important metabolic substrate for contracting muscle, although this remains controversial. To test the hypothesis that reduced plasma free fatty acid (FFA) availability would increase IMTG degradation during exercise, seven active men cycled for 180 min at 60% peak pulmonary O(2) uptake either without (CON) or with (NA) prior ingestion of nicotinic acid to suppress adipose tissue lipolysis. Skeletal muscle and adipose tissue biopsy samples were obtained before and at 90 and 180 min of exercise. NA ingestion decreased (P < 0.05) plasma FFA at rest and completely suppressed the exercise-induced increase in plasma FFA (180 min: CON, 1.42 +/- 0.07; NA, 0.10 +/- 0.01 mM). The decreased plasma FFA during NA was associated with decreased (P < 0.05) adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) activity (CON: 13.9 +/- 2.5, NA: 9.1 +/- 3.0 nmol.min(-1).mg protein(-1)). NA ingestion resulted in decreased whole body fat oxidation and increased carbohydrate oxidation. Despite the decreased whole body fat oxidation, net IMTG degradation was greater in NA compared with CON (net change: CON, 2.3 +/- 0.8; NA, 6.3 +/- 1.2 mmol/kg dry mass). The increased IMTG degradation did not appear to be due to reduced fatty acid esterification, because glycerol 3-phosphate activity was not different between trials and was unaffected by exercise (rest: 0.21 +/- 0.07; 180 min: 0.17 +/- 0.04 nmol.min(-1).mg protein(-1)). HSL activity was not increased from resting rates during exercise in either trial despite elevated plasma epinephrine, decreased plasma insulin, and increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)alpha1 activity was not affected by exercise or NA, whereas AMPKalpha2 activity was increased (P < 0.05) from rest during exercise in NA and was greater (P < 0.05) than in CON at 180 min. These data suggest that plasma FFA availability is an important mediator of net IMTG degradation, and in the absence of plasma FFA, IMTG degradation cannot maintain total fat oxidation. These changes in IMTG degradation appear to disassociate, however, from the activity of the key enzymes responsible for synthesis and degradation of this substrate.  相似文献

Exaggerated postprandial lipemia is associated with coronary heart disease and type II diabetes, yet few studies have examined the effect of sequential meals on lipoprotein metabolism. We have used 13C-labeled fatty acids to trace the incorporation of fatty acid derived from a meal into apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100)-containing lipoproteins and plasma nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) following two consecutive meals. Healthy volunteers (n=8) were given breakfast labeled with [1-(13)C]palmitic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid, followed 5 h later by lunch containing [1-(13)C]oleic acid. Blood samples were taken over a 9-h period. ApoB-100-containing lipoproteins were isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography. Chylomicron-triacylglycerol (TG) concentrations peaked at 195 min following breakfast but at 75 min following lunch (P<0.001). VLDL-TG concentrations, in contrast, rose to a broad peak after breakfast and then fell steadily after lunch. Breakfast markers followed chylomicron-TG concentrations and appeared in plasma NEFA with a similar profile, whereas [1-(13)C]oleic acid peaked 2 h after lunch in plasma TG and NEFA. Breakfast markers appeared steadily in VLDL, peaking 1-3 h after lunch, whereas [1-(13)C]oleic acid was still accumulating in VLDL at 9 h. Around 17% of VLDL-TG originated from recent dietary fat 5 h after breakfast, and around 40% at the end of the experiment. We conclude that there is rapid flux of fatty acids from the diet into endogenous pools. Further study of these processes may open up new targets for intervention to reduce VLDL-TG concentrations and postprandial lipemia.  相似文献
