In health insulin is secreted in discrete insulin secretory bursts from pancreatic beta-cells, collectively referred to as beta-cell mass. We sought to establish the relationship between beta-cell mass, insulin secretory-burst mass, and hepatic insulin clearance over a range of age-related insulin sensitivity in adult rats. To address this, we used a novel rat model with chronically implanted portal vein catheters in which we recently established the parameters to permit deconvolution of portal vein insulin concentration profiles to measure insulin secretion and resolve its pulsatile components. In the present study, we examined total and pulsatile insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity, hepatic insulin clearance, and beta-cell mass in 35 rats aged 2-12 mo. With aging, insulin sensitivity declined, but euglycemia was sustained by an adaptive increase in fasting and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion through the mechanism of a selective augmentation of insulin pulse mass. The latter was attributable to a closely related increase in beta-cell mass (r=0.8, P<0.001). Hepatic insulin clearance increased with increasing portal vein insulin pulse amplitude, damping the delivery of insulin in the systemic circulation. In consequence, the curvilinear relationship previously reported between insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity was extended to both insulin pulse mass and beta-cell mass vs. insulin sensitivity. These data support a central role of adaptive changes in beta-cell mass to permit appropriate insulin secretion in the setting of decreasing insulin sensitivity in the aging animal. They emphasize the cooperative role of pancreatic beta-cells and the liver in regulating the secretion and delivery of insulin to the systemic circulation.  相似文献

Structural modification of insulin results in the generation of insulin analogues that show altered binding affinities to the insulin receptor and/or IGF-I receptor. As a consequence these insulin analogues may have increased mitogenic potency. Nine benign or malignant human mammary epithelial cells, which show different insulin receptor and IGF-I receptor expression patterns, were studied regarding mitogenicity of insulin and insulin analogues. Only insulin glargine showed a significantly higher proliferative effect on MCF-7 breast cancer cells compared to regular insulin among a panel of short- or long-acting insulin analogues, that are in clinical use.  相似文献

The blood glucose control obtained when using semi-synthetic monocomponent human insulin (insulin A) was compared with that using standard monocomponent porcine insulin (insulin B) in 14 children in a double blind crossover study. At the start of the study age, duration of diabetes, insulin dose, and daily carbohydrate intake were the same in both groups. After a one month run in period of standard treatment with porcine insulin the children were randomly divided into group 1 (three months of insulin A followed by three months of insulin B) and group 2 (three months of insulin B followed by three months of insulin A). During each treatment period blood glucose control was assessed by clinical symptoms, glycosylated haemoglobin, and home blood glucose monitoring. Although a significant difference in the period after lunch during 24 hour blood glucose profiles suggested a shorter onset time and faster peak action time of human insulin, no significant difference in the overall diabetic control was seen between the two types of insulin. There was a trend towards improved blood glucose control (irrespective of insulin) as the trial progressed. No clinical reactions to human insulin occurred, and there was no significant difference in the daily insulin dose between porcine and human insulin.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare rapid-acting insulin analogues with regular human insulin in terms of hemoglobin A1c, hypoglycemia, and insulin dose when used in a basal-bolus regimen in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.MethodsMEDLINE and congress proceedings were searched for randomized controlled trials comparing pran- dial insulins in a basal-bolus regimen in adults or children/ adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Studies in pregnancy, ob- servational studies, studies that compared premixed insulin or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion/insulin pumps, and studies where the basal insulin was also changed were excluded. Only studies reporting baseline-endpoint change in insulin dose, or baseline and/or endpoint values, were included.ResultsTwenty-eight studies were identified (insulin glulisine, 4; insulin aspart, 7; insulin lispro, 17). Twenty- five studies compared a rapid-acting insulin analogue with regular human insulin, and 3 trials compared 2 rapid-acting insulin analogues. Overall, rapid-acting insulin analogues in a basal-bolus regimen provided similar or greater im- provements in glycemic control than regular human insulin at similar insulin doses, as well as a lower incidence of hypoglycemia.ConclusionsResults of the studies identified in this literature review indicate that a basal-bolus regimen with prandial rapid-acting insulin analogue provides advan- tages over basal-bolus regimens using prandial regular hu- man insulin, providing improvements in glycemic control comparable to those obtained with regular human insulin, as well as a lower incidence of hypoglycemia.

Plasma glucose, insulin, and C-peptide concentrations were determined in response to graded infusions of glucose, and insulin secretion rates were calculated over each sampling period. Measurements were also made of insulin clearance, resistance to insulin-mediated glucose, uptake, and the plasma glucose, insulin, and C-peptide concentrations at hourly intervals from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in response to breakfast and lunch. Plasma glucose, insulin, and C-peptide concentrations were significantly (P < 0.01) higher in obese women in response to the graded intravenous glucose infusion, associated with a 40% (P < 0.005) greater insulin secretory response. Degree of insulin resistance correlated positively (P < 0.05) with the increase in insulin secretion rate in both nonobese (r = 0.52) and obese (r = 0.58) groups and inversely (P < 0.05) with the decrease in insulin clearance in obese (r = -0.46) and nonobese (r = -0.39) individuals. Weight loss was associated with significantly lower plasma glucose, insulin, and C-peptide concentrations in response to graded glucose infusions and in day-long insulin concentrations. Neither insulin resistance nor the insulin secretory response changed after weight loss, whereas there was a significant increase in the rate of insulin clearance during the glucose infusion. It is concluded that 1) obesity is associated with a shift to the left in the glucose-stimulated insulin secretory dose-response curve as well as a decrease in insulin clearance and 2) changes in insulin secretion and insulin clearance in obese women are more a function of insulin resistance than obesity.  相似文献

In order to study the role of plasma insulin in regulating the binding of insulin to the endothelium of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), insulin binding to a purified preparation of brain capillaries was measured in both genetically obese Zucker rats and lean Zucker controls. We found a reduction of 65% in brain capillary insulin binding site number in the obese compared to lean rats with no change in receptor affinity. Furthermore, specific insulin binding to brain capillaries was negatively correlated (p less than 0.05) to the plasma insulin level, suggesting a role for plasma insulin in regulating insulin binding. A similar relationship was observed between insulin receptor number in liver membranes and the plasma insulin level. We conclude that obese, hyperinsulinemic Zucker rats exhibit a reduction in the number of BBB insulin receptors, which parallels the reduction seen in other peripheral tissues. Since insulin receptors have been hypothesized to participate in the transport of insulin across the BBB, the reduction observed in the obese rats may account for the decrease in cerebrospinal fluid insulin uptake previously demonstrated in these animals.  相似文献

Insulin-stimulated insulin secretion in single pancreatic beta cells   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Functional insulin receptors are known to occur in pancreatic beta cells; however, except for a positive feedback on insulin synthesis, their physiological effects are unknown. Amperometric measurements at single, primary pancreatic beta cells reveal that application of exogenous insulin in the presence or absence of nonstimulatory concentrations of glucose evokes exocytosis mediated by the beta cell insulin receptor. Insulin also elicits increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration in beta cells but has minimal effects on membrane potential. Conditions where the insulin receptor is blocked or cell surface concentration of free insulin is reduced during exocytosis diminishes secretion induced by other secretagogues, providing evidence for direct autocrine action of insulin upon secretion from the same cell. These results indicate that the beta cell insulin receptor can mediate positive feedback for insulin secretion. The presence of a positive feedback mechanism for insulin secretion mediated by the insulin receptor provides a potential link between impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance.  相似文献

Insulin resistance, the diminished response of target tissues to insulin, is associated with the metabolic syndrome and a predisposition towards diabetes in a growing proportion of the worldwide population. Under insulin resistant states, the cellular response of the insulin signaling pathway is diminished and the body typically responds by increasing serum insulin concentrations to maintain insulin signaling. Some evidence indicates that the increased insulin concentration may itself further dampen insulin response. If so, insulin resistance would worsen as the level of circulating insulin increases during compensation, which could contribute to the transition of insulin resistance to more severe disease. Here, we investigated the consequences of excess insulin exposure to insulin receptor (IR) activity. Cells chronically exposed to insulin show a diminished the level of IR tyrosine and serine autophosphorylation below that observed after short-term insulin exposure. The diminished IR response did not originate with IR internalization since IR amounts at the cell membrane were similar after short- and long-term insulin incubation. Förster resonance energy transfer between fluorophores attached to the IR tyrosine kinase (TK) domain showed that a change in the TK domain occurred upon prolonged, but not short-term, insulin exposure. Even though the altered ‘insulin refractory’ IR TK FRET and IR autophosphorylation levels returned to baseline (non-stimulated) levels after wash-out of the original insulin stimulus, subsequent short-term exposure to insulin caused immediate re-establishment of the insulin-refractory levels. This suggests that some cell-based ‘memory’ of chronic hyperinsulinemic exposure acts directly at the IR. An improved understanding of that memory may help define interventions to reset the IR to full insulin responsiveness and impede the progression of insulin resistance to more severe disease states.  相似文献

During insulin resistance, glucose homeostasis is maintained by an increase in plasma insulin via increased secretion and/or decreased first-pass hepatic insulin extraction. However, the relative importance of insulin secretion vs. clearance to compensate for insulin resistance in obesity has yet to be determined. This study utilizes the fat-fed dog model to examine longitudinal changes in insulin secretion and first-pass hepatic insulin extraction during development of obesity and insulin resistance. Six dogs were fed an isocaloric diet with an approximately 8% increase in fat calories for 12 wk and evaluated at weeks 0, 6, and 12 for changes in 1) insulin sensitivity by euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp, 2) first-pass hepatic insulin extraction by direct assessment, and 3) glucose-stimulated insulin secretory response by hyperglycemic clamp. We found that 12 wk of a fat diet increased subcutaneous and visceral fat as assessed by MR imaging. Consistent with increased body fat, the dogs exhibited a approximately 30% decrease in insulin sensitivity and fasting hyperinsulinemia. Although insulin secretion was substantially increased at week 6, beta-cell sensitivity returned to prediet levels by week 12. However, peripheral hyperinsulinemia was maintained because of a significant decrease in first-pass hepatic insulin extraction, thus maintaining hyperinsulinemia, despite changes in insulin release. Our results indicate that when obesity and insulin resistance are induced by an isocaloric, increased-fat diet, an initial increase in insulin secretion by the beta-cells is followed by a decrease in first-pass hepatic insulin extraction. This may provide a secondary physiological mechanism to preserve pancreatic beta-cell function during insulin resistance.  相似文献

Rats and mice retain a duplicated insulin (I) gene. Because the duplicated gene shares only incomplete homology with the ancestral insulin (II) gene it may be regulated differently. In the studies presented here we measured changes in abundance of these distinct insulin mRNAs and their precursors in response to fasting and fasting plus a single dose of cyproheptadine, two experimental manipulations that cause changes in the level of total insulin mRNA in rats. Both diminished rat insulin II mRNA to a greater extent than rat insulin I mRNA. Rat insulin II mRNA comprised 41% of the total insulin mRNA in 0 h controls and decreased to 33% of the total insulin mRNA after a 10-h fast. Insulin II mRNA decreased to 26% of the total insulin mRNA 10 h after treatment with cyproheptadine. To determine whether these manipulations had effects on insulin mRNA synthesis, precursors for each of the two mRNAs were quantified. Fasting for 24 h had only small effects on insulin I mRNA precursor, but diminished rat insulin II pre-mRNA to 32% of the 0 h control values. One and a half hours after fasting plus cyproheptadine administration, pre-mRNA for rat insulin II levels had decreased to 38%, while rat insulin I pre-mRNA remained at levels present in 0 h controls. Levels of rat insulin I and II pre-mRNAs were both maximally depressed at 10 h, but rat insulin II pre-mRNA decreased to 3%, while rat insulin I pre-mRNA diminished to only 49% of controls.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Insulin from the Atlantic hagfish, Myxine glutinosa, a primitive vertebrate, was studied with respect to degradation, receptor binding, and stimulation of glucose transport and metabolism in isolated rat adipocytes. The degradation was studied in a concentrated suspension with about 100mul of cells/ml of suspension. 125I-labeled hagfish insulin and 125I-labeled pig insulin were degraded at the same rate when present in concentrations of 0.3nM. Native hagfish insulin inhibited the rate of degradation of 125I-labeled pig insulin half-maximally at a concentration of 12+/-2 nM (S.D., n=6) as compared to 130+/-32 nM (S.D.,n=6) for pig insulin. Native hagfish insulin in a concentration of 130 nM was biologically inactivated at a rate several times slower than pig insulin in the same concentration. The results indicate that the maximal velocity (Vmax) of degradation of hagfish insulin as well as the concentration causing half-maximal velocity (Km) are about 10 times lower for hagfish insulin than for pig insulin. The receptor binding and the biological effects of hagfish insulin were studied in dilute cell suspensions where the degradation of hormone in the medium was negligible. The receptor binding affinity of hagfish insulin was 23+/-7 per cent (S.D., n=10) of that of pig insulin. Hagfish insulin was able to elicit the same maximal stimulation of both 3-o-methylglucose exchange and lipogenesis from glucose as pig insulin. However, the potency of hagfish insulin with respect to activation of lipogenesis was only 4.6+/-0.6 per cent (S.D., n=15) of that of pig insulin. Hagfish insulin thus constitutes the first described insulin which exhibits a discrepancy between relative binding affinity and relative potency. This discrepancy was not due to the methionine residue (B31) at the COOH-terminal end of the B chain of hagfish insulin, since removal of this residue caused no marked change in the binding affinity or the potency. The results indicate that the receptor occupancy must be 5 times higher with hagfish insulin than with pig insulin to cause a particular degree of activation of lipogenesis. Hagfish insulin might therefore be characterized as a "partial antagonist" on the receptors. However, it was not possible to demonstrate antagonistic properties of hagfish insulin on the cells. The effect of hagfish insulin plus pig insulin in submaximally stimulating concentrations was additive. Furthermore, the decay of activation of adipocytes after incubation with hagfish insulin followed the same time course as the decay of activation after incubation with pig insulin in a concentration of equal potency. These phenomena are in agreement with the concept that adipocytes possess a large excess of receptors which can mediate the effect of insulin on lipogenesis from glucose.  相似文献

We have developed a radioimmunoassay for human insulin receptor. Serum from a patient with Type B severe insulin resistance was used as anti-insulin receptor antiserum. Pure human placental insulin receptor was used as reference preparation and 125I labeled pure insulin receptor as trace. The radioimmunoassay was sensitive (limit of detection less than 17 fmol), reproducible (inter and intra-assay coefficients of variation 12.5% and 1.6% respectively) and specific (no crossreactivity with pure placental IGF-1 receptor, insulin and glucagon). The anti-insulin receptor antibody was, however, able to differentiate between insulin receptor from human placenta and from rat liver. To determine the number of insulin binding sites per receptor, we measured insulin binding (by insulin binding assay) and insulin receptor mass (by radioimmunoassay) in solubilized aliquots from 5 human placentas. The molar ratio of insulin binding to receptor mass was 0.86 +/- 0.12 when binding was determined with monoiodinated 125I-Tyr A 14-insulin. It was 1.94 +/- 0.27 when randomly iodinated 125I-insulin was used. In conclusion, using a sensitive, reproducible and specific radioimmunoassay, we have measured insulin receptor mass independent of insulin binding. Our data are most compatible with binding of one insulin molecule per human placental insulin receptor.  相似文献

Plasma clearance of endogenous and intravenously administered insulin was studied in three sibs with severe insulin resistance secondary to an affinity defect of their insulin receptors, and in five healthy controls. Intravenous infusion of somatostatin was used to inhibit the insulin secretion. 0.3 U of insulin/kg body weight was administered as an intravenous bolus. Plasma glucose, immunoreactive insulin and C-peptide were determined subsequently at constant intervals. We found a prolonged plasma half-life of insulin in the three patients, being 33.5 +/- 11.8 min vs 8.2 +/- 2.2 min in controls, P less than 0.002, but a normal half-life of C-peptide. The result indicates, that the plasma insulin clearance is predominantly mediated by intact insulin receptors. We conclude, that insulin has a prolonged half-life in all patients with insulin resistance secondary to an impaired receptor function.  相似文献

Insulin-binding peptide. Design and characterization   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
The design and characterization of a six-amino acid-containing peptide that binds insulin is described. The amino acid sequence of the insulin-binding peptide (IBP) was determined from the strand of DNA complementary to the strand of DNA coding for the insulin molecule in the domain of the insulin monomer believed to interact with the insulin receptor. The IBP (Cys-Val-Glu-Glu-Ala-Ser) binds specifically to insulin in a saturable manner with a Kd of 3 nM. This binding process is time dependent and slightly temperature dependent, and the peptide appears to interact with insulin near the carboxyl terminus of the B-chain of insulin. Incubation of insulin with the peptide decreases insulin binding to the insulin receptor by 50%, with no effect on the affinity of insulin for the receptor and no effect on cellular insulin-stimulated deoxyglucose uptake. A polyclonal antibody produced against the IBP will inhibit specific insulin binding to intact cells by approximately 50%, with no effects on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. From this data, we suggest that there are at least two domains of the insulin molecule through which it interacts with its receptor, the "binding region" of insulin, which is the domain blocked by the IBP, and the "message region" of insulin, through which insulin not only binds to the receptor, but also generates the cellular signal.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C (PKC) activator on insulin receptors and insulin action in freshly isolated and primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. PMA (1 x 10–7 M) did not alter insulin receptor numbers or affinity either acutely or chronically but within 60 minute inactivated insulin stimulated tyrosine kinase of the insulin receptor. PKC activation inhibitied insulin (1 x 10–7M) stimulation of glycogen and lipid synthesis with a decrease or no change in basal glycogenesis and lipogenesis respectively. However, PKC activation did not alter insulin stimulated or basal amino acid transport even though PCK activation inhibited insulin stimulation of the insulin. receptor tyrosine kinase. Thus, within one tissue, PKC activation has differential effect on insulin action depending on which pathway is examined. Furthermore, insulin stimulation of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase may not be a necessary step for all insulin signaling pathways.  相似文献

Crude membrane from the bovine neural retina contains one IGF-I and two insulin binding sites. Although both insulin binding sites have a high affinity for insulin (IC50 = 0.1 and 7.0 nM), only one exhibits "classical" specificity and binds insulin with higher affinity than IGF-I. The second insulin binding site is "non-classical" in that it has an equal affinity for IGF-I and insulin. Retinal IGF-I binding exceeds insulin binding by a factor of 10-20. Despite this high level of IGF-I binding it is unlikely that non-classical insulin binding represents insulin binding to an IGF-I receptor because 1) anomalous binding is 30 times greater than that predicted from cross-specificity, 2) low concentrations of unlabeled IGF-I increase IGF-I binding to the IGF-I binding site but do not increase IGF-I binding to the non-classical insulin binding site and 3) the IGF-I receptor's affinity for insulin (and IGF-I) increases greatly during receptor purification. In contrast, the insulin affinity of the non-classical insulin binding site is largely unaffected by this process. Although receptor solubilization and purification had no effect on the insulin receptor's affinity for insulin, it did markedly increase this site's affinity for IGF-I. Thus, the major proportion of purified retinal "insulin receptors" have a higher affinity for IGF-I than insulin. The evidence presented here is consistent with the view that the bovine retina contains one IGF-I and two insulin binding sites and that a detergent-sensitive factor regulates IGF-I affinity of both classes of binding sites.  相似文献

Background: Glycemic control is essential in the management of diabetes. However, many patients with diabetes are not achieving therapeutic targets, partly because they are receiving insufficient doses of insulin. This is particularly problematic in patients with severe insulin resistance, defined as insulin requirement >200 units/kg per day (>3 units/kg per day for pediatric patients). It is difficult to use U-100 forms of insulin at doses >200 units/kg per day because of the volume of insulin being administered subcutaneously. U-500, a concentrated form of insulin, may be useful in the treatment of these patients.Objective: Current practice regarding the use of U-500 insulin has been published elsewhere. This article presents an updated algorithm for the administration and dosing of U-500 insulin, based on clinical experience with severe forms of insulin resistance. Guidelines are provided for dose escalation of U-500 insulin.Methods: We reviewed the results of treatment with U-500 insulin in patients with severe insulin resistance. We analyzed the results, updated a pre-existing algorithm, provided additional practical information on the administration and dosing of U-500 insulin, and compared the cost of U-500 with that of U-100 insulin.Results: To date, we have treated 56 patients (age range, 9–54 years) with severe insulin resistance using U-500 insulin. Doses ranged from 1.5 to 566 units/kg per day. Based on the pharmacodynamic properties of U-500 insulin, this concentrated form must be administered and dosed differently than regular U-100 insulin. U-500 insulin cost more than U-100 insulin on a per-milliliter basis, but cost less in the end because of the lower volumes of insulin required and fewer syringes and pump cartridges needed to administer U-500 insulin.Conclusions: In our experience, U-500 insulin is a useful tool in the management of patients with severe insulin resistance. U-500 insulin alleviates the volume-related problems associated with U-100 insulin, making treatment with higher doses of insulin (≥200 units per day) more effective with U-500 insulin than with U-100 insulin.  相似文献

This aim of this study was to determine whether RBC insulin receptor assay represents a clinically useful way of assessing insulin sensitivity in obese children. Steady state plasma glucose (SSPG) was established by a constant infusion of glucose (6 mg/kg/min), insulin (0.8 mU/kg/min) and somatostatin (125 micrograms/m2/h), following the loading dose of somatostatin (125 micrograms/m2). Insulin binding to RBCs was measured by a modified method of Gambhir and was compared with SSPG. Of 21 children with various relative body weight, 8 hyperinsulinemic obese children had a decreased insulin binding to RBCs due to decreased receptor concentrations. The insulin binding was inversely correlated with the fasting serum insulin level and with the insulin area under the O-GTT insulin response curve. In 11 children with various relative body weight, a highly significant inverse relationship was found between SSPG and insulin binding. SSPG was also correlated with the fasting serum insulin level. It was concluded that RBC insulin receptor may quantitatively reflect insulin resistance in obese children, and may be a useful tool for clinical evaluation of tissue insulin sensitivity in children.  相似文献

Molecular genetics of severe insulin resistance   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Leprechaunism and type A diabetes represent inborn errors of insulin resistance whose phenotypes suggested causation by mutations in the insulin receptor gene. Cells cultured from patients with leprechaunism specifically lacked high-affinity insulin binding. Partial but different degrees of impairment were observed in cells cultured from first-degree relatives. Different mutations in the insulin receptor's alpha subunit were proposed in different families (Ark-1, Atl, Minn, Mount Sinai) based on phenotype, cellular insulin binding, and insulin receptor structure. Molecular cloning and sequencing of mutant insulin receptor cDNA from family Ark-1 confirmed that the proband inherited a maternal missense and a paternal nonsense mutation in the alpha subunit and was a compound heterozygote. The insulin receptor was immunologically present on the plasma membrane of fibroblasts cultured from patients Ark-1 and Atl but was markedly reduced in cells from patients Minn and Mount Sinai. In cells from patient Minn, but not from patient Mount Sinai, the decreased number of insulin receptors was associated with reduced insulin receptor mRNA. In two families with the less severe form of insulin resistance, type A diabetes, mutations altered post-translational processing of the insulin receptor molecule. At a cellular level, these mutations of the alpha subunit of the insulin receptor shared defective binding and impaired stimulation of sugar transport by insulin. In family Atl, however, glucose uptake was constitutively increased. Thus, genetic variation in the insulin receptor gene causes a spectrum of inherited insulin-resistant syndromes and altered cellular signaling.  相似文献
