The daily changes in plasma glucose, FFA, insulin and glucagon concentrations in rats under 12 hr-12 hr light-dark conditions, and the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus in these changes were examined. In sham-operated rats, the four parameters showed significant daily rhythms. However, after bilateral lesions of the SCN, daily rhythms could not be detected in these parameters under the present experimental conditions. Furthermore, after the SCN lesions the plasma glucose concentration remained at the minimum level of that in sham-operated rats, while the plasma insulin and glucagon concentrations reduced to approximately the mean level and about half the minimum level of sham-operated rats, respectively, and the FFA concentration lowered to somewhat below the minimum level. Gradual increase in the plasma insulin concentration at the end of the light period was observed in intact rats even after starvation for 24 hr. These findings suggest that the SCN is essential for generation of the daily changes in the plasma glucose, FFA, insulin and glucagon concentrations and also that it plays critical roles in regulation of the secretion of pancreatic hormones. The gradual increase in the plasma insulin level observed at the end of the light period is discussed in connection with initiation of spontaneous feeding behaviour. 相似文献

Objective: Insulin resistance is closely associated with two disparate aspects of lipid storage: the intracellular lipid content of skeletal muscle and the magnitude of central adipose beds. Our aim was to determine their relative contribution to impaired insulin action. Research Methods and Procedures: Eighteen older (56 to 75 years of age) men were studied before elective knee surgery. Insulin sensitivity (M/ΔI) was determined by hyperinsulinemic–euglycemic clamp. Central abdominal fat (CF) was assessed by DXA. Skeletal muscle was excised at surgery and assayed for content of metabolically active long‐chain acyl‐CoA esters (LCAC). Results: Significant inverse relationships were observed between LCAC and M/ΔI (R2 = 0.34, p = 0.01) and between CF and M/ΔI (R2 = 0.38, p = 0.006), but not between CF and LCAC (R2 = 0.0005, p = 0.93). In a multiple regression model (R2 = 0.71, p < 0.0001), both CF (p = 0.0006) and LCAC (p = 0.0009) were independent statistical predictors of M/ΔI. Leptin levels correlated inversely with M/ΔI (R2 = 0.60, p = 0.0002) and positively with central (R2 = 0.41, p = 0.006) and total body fat (R2 = 0.63, p = 0.0001). Discussion: The mechanisms by which altered lipid metabolism in skeletal muscle influences insulin action may not be related directly to those linking central fat and insulin sensitivity. In particular, it is unlikely that muscle accumulation of lipids directly derived from labile central fat depots is a principal contributor to peripheral insulin resistance. Instead, our results imply that circulating factors, other than nonesterified fatty acids or triglyceride, mediate between central fat depots and skeletal muscle tissue. Leptin was not exclusively associated with central fat, but other factors, secreted specifically from central fat cells, could modulate muscle insulin sensitivity. 相似文献

Objective: In healthy lean individuals, changes in insulin sensitivity occurring as a consequence of a 2‐day dexamethasone administration are compensated for by changes in insulin secretion, allowing glucose homeostasis to be maintained. This study evaluated the changes in glucose metabolism and insulin secretion induced by short‐term dexamethasone administration in obese women. Research Methods and Procedures: Eleven obese women with normal glucose tolerance were studied on two occasions, without and after 2 days of low‐dose dexamethasone administration. A two‐step hyperglycemic clamp (7.5 and 10 mM glucose) with 6, 6 2H2 glucose was used to assess insulin secretion and whole body glucose metabolism. Results were compared with those obtained in a group of eight lean women. Results: Without dexamethasone, obese women had higher plasma insulin concentrations in the fasting state, during the first phase of insulin secretion, and at the two hyperglycemic plateaus. However, they had normal whole body glucose metabolism compared with lean women, indicating adequate compensation. After dexamethasone, obese women had a 66% to 92% increase in plasma insulin concentrations but a 15.4% decrease in whole body glucose disposal. This contrasted with lean women, who had a 91% to 113% increase in plasma insulin concentrations, with no change in whole body glucose disposal. Discussion: Dexamethasone administration led to a significant reduction in whole body glucose disposal at fixed glycemia in obese but not lean women. This indicates that obese women are unable to increase their insulin secretion appropriately. 相似文献

The effect of glucose on the release of immunoreactive insulin (IRI) in synaptosomes isolated from rat brain was studied. In the absence of glucose synaptosomes release about 4% (0.77 IU/mg protein) of total content. Glucose increases significantly the IRI released by synaptosomes. Addition of the glycolytic inhibitor iodoacetic acid (IAA), decreased the glucose-induced release of IRI by about 50%, suggesting that glucose metabolism is involved. The observation that glucose provides a concentration related signal for IRI release indicates that this synaptosomal preparation may be useful as a model for research on the mechanism of insulin release in brain. 相似文献

Brain insulin: regulation,mechanisms of action and functions 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
1. While many questions remain unanswered, it is now well documented that, contrary to earlier views, insulin is an important neuromodulator, contributing to neurobiological processes, in particular energy homeostasis and cognition. A specific role on cognitive functions related to feeding is proposed, and it is suggested that brain insulin from different sources might be involved in the above vital functions in health and disease.2. A molecule identical to pancreatic insulin, and specific insulin receptors, are found widely distributed in the central nervous system networks related to feeding, reproduction, or cognition.3. The actions of insulin in the central nervous system may be under both multilevel and multifactorial controls. The amount of blood insulin reaching the brain, brain insulin stores and secretion, potential local biosynthesis and degradation of the peptide, and insulin receptors and signal transduction can be affected by metabolic factors induced by nutrients, hormones, neurotransmitters, and regulatory peptides, peripherally or in the central nervous system.4. Glucose and serotonin regulate insulin directly in the hypothalamus and may be of importance for its biological effects. Central mechanisms regulating glucose-induced insulin secretion show some analogy with the mechanisms operating in the pancreas.5. A cross-talk between insulin and leptin receptors has been observed in the brain, and a regulation of central insulin actions, potentially via serotonin modulation, by leptin, galanin, melanocortins, and neuropeptide Y (NPY) is suggested.6. A more complete knowledge of the biological role of insulin in brain function and dysfunction, and of the regulatory mechanisms involved in these processes, constitutes a real advancement in the understanding of the pathophysiology of metabolic and mental diseases and could lead to important medical benefits. 相似文献

为了解葡萄糖与胰岛素对3T3F442A脂肪细胞中Leptin表达的调节,应用RTPCR方法以betaactin为内对照对不同葡萄糖和/或胰岛素浓度培养条件下3T3F442A脂肪细胞中LeptinmRNA表达水平进行相对定量分析。结果表明葡萄糖与胰岛素对3T3F442A脂肪细胞中Leptin表达有促进作用,过高浓度的葡萄糖抑制Leptin的表达及胰岛素对Leptin表达的促进。葡萄糖和胰岛素对Leptin表达的促进作用无协同效应,且这种促进作用表现出饱和性特点。葡萄糖浓度的变化对脂肪细胞中Leptin的表达与调控具有十分重要的影响。 相似文献

Objectives: Obesity is an important risk factor for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Recently, a newly described circulating hormone resistin, which is expressed primarily in adipocytes, has been shown to antagonize insulin action in mice. Resistin, therefore, has been suggested to play a role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. Research Methods and Procedures: We studied the expression of the resistin gene in primary cultured human adipocytes and preadipocytes. We also examined resistin gene expression in subcutaneous abdominal adipocytes in women (n = 24) over a wide range of body weight and insulin sensitivity. Results: Whereas resistin gene expression was barely detectable in mature adipocytes, it was highly expressed in preadipocytes. Adipogenic differentiation of preadipocytes was associated with a time-dependent down-regulation of resistin gene expression. There was no relationship between body weight, insulin sensitivity, or other metabolic parameters and adipocyte resistin gene expression in the clinical study. Discussion: Together these findings do not support an important role of adipose-tissue resistin gene expression in human insulin resistance. 相似文献

The role of serotonin in controlling feeding in flesh flies is examined. Amount of feeding was recorded over 6 h for flies injected with serotonin or saline. The proportion of time spent on various behaviors over a period of 1 h was recorded after the injection of serotonin or saline or no injection. Corresponding electrophysiological measurements were made on serotonin and saline-injected flies. The release of serotonin as a consequence of feeding was also examined. The subesophageal ganglia of flies taken before or after 2 days of sugar feeding were examined immunocytochemically. Serotonin injection decreased feeding in flies compared to saline-injected flies. All behaviors measured decreased after serotonin injection, except for resting, which increased, and grooming, which decreased in both serotonin- and saline-injected flies. A marked reduction in electrophysiological responses to sucrose was seen in serotonin-injected flies. Specific cells of the subesophageal ganglion showed significantly less serotonin immunoreactivity in fed flies compared to flies that had not yet fed. The role of serotonin in affecting the physiology of feeding in insects is discussed. 相似文献

Objective: Obese non-diabetic patients are characterized by an extra-hepatic insulin resistance. Whether obese patients also have decreased hepatic insulin sensitivity remains controversial. Research Methods and Procedures: To estimate their hepatic insulin sensitivity, we measured the rate of exogenous insulin infusion required to maintain mildly elevated glycemia in obese patients with type 2 diabetes, obese non-diabetic patients, and lean control subjects during constant infusions of somatostatin and physiological low-glucagon replacement infusions. To account for differences in insulin concentrations among the three groups of subjects, an additional protocol was also performed in healthy lean subjects with higher insulin infusion rates and exogenous dextrose infusion. Results: The insulin infusion rate required to maintain glycemia at 8.5 mM was increased 4-fold in obese patients with type 2 diabetes and 1.5-fold in obese non-diabetic patients. The net endogenous glucose production (measured with 6,6-2H2-glucose) and total glucose output (measured with 2-2H1-glucose) were ∼30% lower in the patients than in the lean subjects. Net endogenous glucose production and total glucose output were both markedly increased in both groups of obese patients compared with lean control subjects during hyperinsulinemia. Discussion: Our data indicate that both obese non-diabetic and obese type 2 diabetic patients have a blunted suppressive action of insulin on glucose production, indicating hepatic and renal insulin resistance. 相似文献

The work has been carried out on mice of the Tg8 line with knockout of gene of monoamineoxidase A with an increase of serotonin and noradrenaline content in the brain, and on mice of the C3H line with unchanged genome and normal concentration of monoamines. An immunocytochemical study has been performed of development of neurons producing gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) under conditions of excess of serotonin and noradrenaline in the mice in embryogenesis. The GnRH-neurons were revealed at the 18th day of embryonic development in telencephalon along trajectory of their migration from olfactory bulbs to the retrochiasmatic area. In telencephalon of mouse embryos of the Tg8 line, a redistribution of the GnRH-neurons along their migration trajectory was observed as compared with embryos of the C3H line mice. The percent of the GnRH-neurons in the Tg8 mouse embryos in caudal parts of the migration trajectory was lower than in rostral parts, the opposite distribution of the neurons being observed in the C3H line mouse embryos; at the excess of serotonin and noradrenaline in the Tg8 line mouse embryos, the total amount of GnRH-neurons in the brain was lower than in the C3H mice. In males of the Tg8 line mice under conditions of excess of serotonin and noradrenaline the optical density of neurons, which correlated with the GnRH concentration in the cell, was higher than in control mice. Thus, in the Tg8 mice under conditions of the serotonin and noradrenaline excess, migration of the GnRH-neurons to their final anlage in hypothalamus is accelerated as well as the total number of the GnRH-neurons decreases, which indicates a decrease of proliferation of cells-precursors and the earlier differentiation of neurons. 相似文献

Relationships among feeding paradigm (single diet vs food selection) and arterio-venous differences (δAV) of glucose, insulin and tryptophan were studied by measuring the temporal patterns of food intake and plasma parameters during 8 hr feeding cycles in rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were offered a single diet of fixed composition (20% casein) or a choice between two isocaloric diets (0% and 60% casein) for 2 weeks under 8-hr daily feeding conditions, food being offered during the dark cycle. Groups of animals were then killed at the beginning and at 2-hourly intervals throughout the feeding period. With both feeding paradigms, rats showed temporal patterns of energy, carbohydrate and protein intakes with a peak at the beginning and a trough at the end of the feeding period. However, in rats offered a dietary choice the intake of carbohydrate was significantly lower, and the intakes of energy and protein significantly higher than those found in rats offered a single diet. Throughout the feeding period, these differences between single and choice diets became less accentuated in the case of carbohydrate intake, but more accentuated for energy and protein intakes. Paradoxically, rats fed a choice of diets had a significantly lower weight gain than rats fed a single diet. The temporal variation of insulin secretion and tryptophan absorption varied inversely with the two diet paradigms. Moreover, in rats offered a choice of diets, macronutrient intake was significantly correlated with insulin secretion and venous glucose concentration. The opposed physiologic and metabolic responses to the feeding paradigms suggest the need for future studies to examine the possibility that such can function as synchronizers of biological rhythms. 相似文献

Objective: Obesity, insulin resistance, and apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype have all been associated with coronary heart disease. We examined the interaction between obesity and APOE genotype in determining fasting insulin and glucose levels. Research Methods and Procedures: From 1991 to 1995, 3799 subjects underwent a clinical examination and fasting insulin and glucose measurement. APOE genotypes were determined on 3500 participants. Participants taking oral hypoglycemic drugs or insulin preparations or with the rare APOE2/4 genotype were excluded. Finally, 2929 individuals were included in the present analysis. Results: In men, we observed a statistically significant interaction between obesity and APOE genotype on insulin and glucose level (p = 0.003 and 0.008, respectively). Obese men with the APOE4 genotype presented with higher levels of insulin and glucose than obese men in the other genotype groups. No association between genotype and insulin or glucose in nonobese men was observed. Obesity was associated with higher insulin levels in the three APOE genotypes groups, whereas obesity was directly associated with glucose in those with the APOE4 genotype. In women, the effect of interaction between APOE genotype and obesity on fasting insulin and glucose was not statistically significant. Obesity was associated with higher levels of fasting insulin and glucose. APOE genotype was not associated with insulin or glucose. Discussion: Obesity modulates the association between the APOE genotype and fasting insulin and glucose levels in men. Although weight control is important in all people, it may be especially important in APOE4 men to modify potentially elevated fasting insulin and glucose levels. 相似文献

Objective: To evaluate insulin action on substrate use and insulinemia in nondiabetic class III obese patients before and after weight loss induced by bariatric surgery. Research Methods and Procedures: Thirteen obese patients (four men/nine women; BMI = 56.3 ± 2.7 kg/m2) and 13 lean subjects (five men/eight women; BMI = 22.4 ± 0.5 kg/m2) underwent euglycemic clamp, oral glucose tolerance test, and indirect calorimetry. The study was carried out before (Study I) and after (~40% relative to initial body weight; Study II) weight loss induced by Roux‐en‐Y Gastric bypass with silastic ring surgery. Results: The obese patients were insulin resistant (whole‐body glucose use = 19.7 ± 1.5 vs. 51.5 ± 2.4 μmol/min per kilogram fat‐free mass, p < 0.0001) and hyperinsulinemic in the fasting state (332 ± 86 vs. 85 ± 5 pM, p < 0.0001) and during the oral glucose tolerance test compared with the lean subjects. Fasting plasma insulin normalized after weight loss, whereas whole‐body glucose use increased (35.5 ± 3.7 μmol/min per kilogram fat‐free mass, p < 0.05 vs. Study I). The higher insulin clearance of obese did not change during the follow‐up period. Insulin‐induced glucose oxidation and nonoxidative glucose disposal were lower in the obese compared with the lean group (all p < 0.05). In Study II, the former increased slightly, whereas nonoxidative glucose disposal reached values similar to those of the control group. Fasting lipid oxidation was higher in the obese than in the control group and did not change significantly in Study II. The insulin effect on lipid oxidation was slightly improved (p = 0.01 vs. Study I). Discussion: The rapid weight loss after surgery in obese class III patients normalized insulinemia and improved insulin sensitivity almost entirely due to glucose storage, whereas fasting lipid oxidation remained high. 相似文献
