In metabolic clearance rate (MCR) and plasma half-time disappearance rate (t 1/2) of human N-terminal (1-76) and adrenocorticotropin(hACTH 1-39) of pro-opiomelanocortin were compared after intravenous bolus injection of both peptides simultaneously into rat. The level of immunoreactive (IR) hNT and IR-ACTH in plasma and urine samples were measured by specific and homologous radioimmunoassays (RIAs). The MCR and hNT and hACTH were 3.01 +/- 0.20 ml/min (M +/- S.D., N = 4) and 2.04 +/- 0.06 ml/min, respectively (p less than 0.05), The curve for the disappearance rate of IR-hNT was triphasic (rapid t 1/2 = 0.96 +/- 0.39 min, intermediate t 1/2 = 6.7 +/- 2.25 min, and slow t 1/2 = 74 +/- 15.8 min), while that of IR-ACTH was biphasic (rapid t 1/2 = 3.3 +/- 0.68 min, and slow t 1/2 = 41.5 +/- 3.03 min) as analyzed by the non-linear least-squares methods. Statistically significant difference (p less than 0.01) was found between IR-hNT and IR-hACTH in the rapid t 1/2 and in the slow t 1/2. Subsequent analysis of pooled plasma sample (30 min post-injection) by molecular sieve chromatography on Sephadex G-50 superfine column revealed that the majority of IR-hNT (90-95%) and IR-ACTH (60-70%) are co-chromatographed with [125I]iodo hNT and [125I]iodo ACTH respectively. Similarly, gel filtration of pooled urine sample (120 min post-injection) on Sephadex G-50 superfine revealed that 80-90% of IR-hNT and less than 50% of IR-ACTH co-eluted with [125I]iodo hNT and [125I]iodo ACTH, respectively. Smaller molecular forms of IR-hNT and IR-ACTH were definitely apparent in the urine sample. In conclusion, hNT has a larger MCR and a longer half-time disappearance rate (t 1/2) than IR-hACTH in rat plasma and it appears that hNT is more resistant to degradation by plasma and by kidney than hACTH.  相似文献

The kinetics and metabolism in various organs of three bioactive products of progastrin, the small sulfated and nonsulfated gastrin-6 and the large nonsulfated gastrin-52, were examined during intravenous administration in anesthetized pigs. The kidney, hindlimb, liver, head, and gut eliminated the hexapeptides efficiently, with a fractional extraction ranging from 0.50 to 0.28 (P<0.001-0.05). No metabolism was recorded in the lungs, and sulfation was without influence on the extraction of gastrin-6. Gastrin-52 was eliminated only in the kidney and the head, with a fractional extraction between 0.23 and 0.11 (P<0.01-0.05). The half-life of sulfated and nonsulfated gastrin-6 was 1.5+/-0.4 and 1.4+/-0.3 min, the metabolic clearance rate (MCR) was 80.8+/-7.6 and 116.0+/-13.5 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1) (P<0.05), and the apparent volume of distribution (V(dss)) was 199.3+/-70.1 and 231.4+/-37.3 ml/kg, respectively. The decay of gastrin-52 in plasma was biexponential. The half-lives of this biexponential after a bolus injection were 3.9+/-0.5 (T(1/2alpha)) and 25.7+/-1.4 (T(1/2beta)) min, and the MCR and V(dss) were 4.2+/-0.4 ml. kg(-1) x min(-1) and 116.2+/-16.2 ml/kg(1). We conclude that there is a differential elimination of progastrin products in splanchnic and nonsplanchnic tissue, which depends on the chain length of the peptides. Sulfation of gastrin-6 had no influence on the organ-specific extraction but reduced the MCR. Our results are in keeping with previous studies of nonsulfated gastrin-17, which is extracted in the kidney, head, limb, and gut but not in the liver.  相似文献

The disappearance and metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of alpha human atrial natriuretic peptide (alpha h-ANP) has been studied in normal man by radioimmunoassay of the atrial peptide in plasma and plasma extracts. After an intravenous (iv) bolus injection of 100 micrograms alpha h-ANP, levels of immunoreactive alpha h-ANP (IR-alpha hANP) in unextracted plasma fell rapidly and exponentially during the first 10 min (t1/2 = 2.5 min), after which levels declined more slowly to reach basal values 30 min after injection. Venous plasma extracts, purified by Sep Pak cartridges, were used to calculate the MCR of IR-alpha hANP under steady state conditions of constant iv infusion (200 micrograms over 60 min) in healthy volunteers. Calculated MCR from venous samples was 2.4 L/min and volume of distribution 10.7 L. After cessation of infusions, the disappearance rate (rapid phase) of IR-alpha hANP was 3.1 min. These studies show that alpha h-ANP is rapidly metabolized at rates similar to other vasoactive hormones such as angiotensin II and vasopressin.  相似文献

The kinetics of 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FdUrd) and 5-fluorouracil (FUra) disposition after bolus intravenous injection were determined in anesthetized rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys. FdUrd disappearance from plasma was an apparent triexponential process with average half-lives of 0.5, 2, and 8 min; FUra disappearance was biphasic with average half-lives of 2 and 13 min. After FdUrd injection, FUra reached peak plasma concentrations of 15-30% of the initial FdUrd concentrations within 3 min, and then disappeared more slowly than FdUrd. Total FdUrd clearance fell from 105 to 73 to 56 ml/kg/min as the dose increased from 10 to 20 to 40 mg/kg. Metabolic clearance was about 85% of total clearance and fell similarly with increasing dosage. Total and metabolic FUra clearances were about 30% of FdUrd values at an equimolar dose. Renal FdUrd clearance exceeded glomerular filtration rate and was decreased by probenecid, indicating tubular secretion; renal FUra clearance was close to glomerular filtration rate. There was no apparent correlation between dose and renal clearance or volume of distribution. It was concluded that FdUrd, like FUra, is eliminated primarily by a dose-dependent process. The metabolic basis of the dose-dependent kinetics remains to be determined.  相似文献

Little is known about the metabolism of the intestinotropic factor glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2); except that it is a substrate for dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and that it appears to be eliminated by the kidneys. We, therefore, investigated GLP-2 metabolism in six multicatheterized pigs receiving intravenous GLP-2 infusions (2 pmol/kg/min) before and after administration of valine-pyrrolidide (300 mumol/kg; a well characterized DPP-IV inhibitor). Plasma samples were analyzed by radioimmunoassays allowing determination of intact, biologically active GLP-2 and the DPP-IV metabolite GLP-2 (3-33). During infusion of GLP-2 alone, 30.9+/-1.7% of the infused peptide was degraded to GLP-2 (3-33). After valine-pyrrolidide, there was no significant formation of the metabolite. Significant extraction of intact GLP-2 was observed across the kidneys, the extremities (represented by a leg), and the splanchnic bed, resulting in a metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of 6.80+/-0.47 ml/kg/min and a plasma half-life of 6.8+/-0.8 min. Hepatic extraction was not detected. Valine-pyrrolidide addition did not affect extraction ratios significantly, but decreased (p=0.003) MCR to 4.18+/-0.27 ml/kg/min and increased (p=0.052) plasma half-life to 9.9+/-0.8 min. The metabolite was eliminated with a half-life of 22.1+/-2.6 min and a clearance of 2.07+/-0.11 ml/kg/min. In conclusion, intact GLP-2 is eliminated in the peripheral tissues, the splanchnic bed and the kidneys, but not in the liver, by mechanisms unrelated to DPP-IV. However, DPP-IV is involved in the overall GLP-2 metabolism and seems to be the sole enzyme responsible for N-terminal degradation of GLP-2.  相似文献

Responses of growth hormone (GH) release to synthetic human growth hormone-releasing factor (hGRF)-44-NH2 analogs were determined, and the GH-releasing potency based on dose per kg of body weight (bw) was compared with that of hGRF-44-NH2 in female dairy calves. Four- and 12-month-old calves were injected intravenously with 0.25 microgram of hGRF-44-NH2 or its analogs per kg of bw. Blood samples were collected before, and during 180 min after each injection, and plasma GH concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Areas under the GH response curves for 180 min after injection of hGRF-44-NH2 and its analogs were used as an index of the GH-releasing potency of each peptide. The GH-releasing potency of hGRF(1-26)-NH2 was significantly lower than that of hGRF-44-NH2 (P less than 0.05). On the other hand, hGRF(1-29)-NH2 possessed similar potency to hGRF-44-NH2. [D-Tyr1]-hGRF-44-NH2 showed prolonged GH-releasing activity, though its potency was similar to that of hGRF-44-NH2. Also, [D-Ala2]-hGRF(1-29)-NH2 exhibited prolonged GH-releasing activity, and its potency was 2.5 (P less than 0.05) and twice (P less than 0.05) as great as that of hGRF-44-NH2 and hGRF(1-29)-NH2, respectively. These results demonstrate that the N-terminal 29 amino acid residues of hGRF possess the activity site required for full GH release in vivo, and [D-Ala2]-hGRF(1-29)-NH2 has longer and greater activity, on a dose basis, than hGRF-44-NH2 in the calves.  相似文献

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is an important regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis in the fetus, but its role after birth is unclear. Although infused AVP increases mean arterial pressure (MAP) during the 1st mo after birth, pressor responses are unchanged, suggesting that vascular responsiveness is also unchanged. Alternatively, this could reflect increases in AVP metabolic clearance rate (MCR(AVP)). However, newborn AVP metabolism and synthesis are poorly studied. Therefore, we examined the pressor responses to infused AVP and the pattern of circulating AVP, AVP production rate (PR(AVP)), and MCR(AVP) in conscious newborn sheep (n = 5) at 9-38 days after birth. Basal MAP rose and heart rate (HR) fell during the study period (P < or = 0.02), while circulating AVP was unchanged (P > 0.1), averaging 3.01 +/- 0.86 pg/ml. Infused AVP elicited steady-state responses at 10-40 min, increasing plasma AVP and MAP and decreasing HR (P < 0.001). Although pressor responses were unchanged between 9 and 38 days, the rise in MAP correlated with increases in plasma AVP (R = 0.47, P = 0.02, n = 24). MCR(AVP) was unchanged throughout the 1st mo (P > 0.2), averaging 205 +/- 17 ml.kg(-1).min(-1), and was associated with an elevated PR(AVP), 973 +/- 267 pg.kg(-1).min(-1), which also was unchanged (P > 0.1). After birth, MCR(AVP) and PR(AVP) are elevated, probably accounting for the stable plasma AVP levels. The former is also likely to account for the stable pressor responses to infused AVP during the 1st mo. The reason for the elevated PR(AVP) is unclear but may relate to increases in vascular volume associated with postnatal growth.  相似文献

A direct radioimmunoassay of plasma somatostatin-like immunoreactivity (SRIF-LI) was developed and validated. The sensitivity was 16.0 pg/ml, and the specificity was good. The recovery of plasma SRIF-LI was 98.8 +/- 6.3%. The Scatchard plot of the antiserum binding data revealed a straight line, with a binding affinity of 3.52 X 10(-12) M and a binding capacity 4.06 X 10(-10) M. Synthetic SRIF (Stilamin), 250 micrograms, was infused intravenously over a 30-min period in 9 healthy volunteers. Plasma glucose, insulin (IRI), glucagon (IRG) and SRIF-LI were measured. A two-compartment open model was adopted to analyze the pharmacokinetic data of SRIF-LI. The results showed that plasma SRIF-LI rose from 192.2 +/- 16.2 pg/ml to a plateau of 2,129.8 +/- 288.2 pg/ml within 5-10 min after starting the infusion. The half disappearance time from plasma (Ta1/2) was 1.36 +/- 0.18 min, the half disappearance time from the 'remote' compartment (Tb1/2) was 49.6 +/- 10.9 min and the net half disappearance time from the two compartments together (Tn1/2) was 9.19 +/- 1.49 min. The metabolic clearance rate was 50.3 +/- 7.0 ml/kg/min. The plasma IRI, IRG and the IRI/IRG molar ratio were all suppressed during the infusion period. The recovery time of plasma IRG was mildly delayed in comparison to that of IRI. This indicates that there are dissociations between IRI and IRG in the extent and the duration of suppression caused by somatostatin infusion.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in vivo after bolus and continuous i.v. administrations of the peptide were compared with those of glucagon in rats. The half-disappearance time (t1/2) distribution volume (Vd) and metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of GLP-1 given as a bolus injection and by constant infusion, were, respectively, as follows: t1/2 (min), 47.7 +/- 14.5 and 39.5 +/- 15.5 (mean +/- S.D.); Vd (ml), 903.8 +/- 62.4 and 516.3 +/- 92.1 and MCR (ml kg-1 min-1), 27.4 +/- 10.8 and 18.6 +/- 8.6. These values differed significantly from the respective values for glucagon (t1/2, 3.3 +/- 0.6 and 5.8 +/- 1.0; Vd, 206.5 +/- 25.9 and 240.0 +/- 76.1; and MCR, 83.1 +/- 8.2 and 46.7 +/- 13.3). These findings demonstrate that GLP-1 is degraded more slowly than glucagon in vivo.  相似文献

Glucagon has a short plasma t(1/2) in vivo, with renal extraction playing a major role in its elimination. Glucagon is degraded by neutral endopeptidase (NEP) 24.11 in vitro, but the physiological relevance of NEP 24.11 in glucagon metabolism is unknown. Therefore, the influence of candoxatril, a selective NEP inhibitor, on plasma levels of endogenous and exogenous glucagon was examined in anesthetized pigs. Candoxatril increased endogenous glucagon concentrations, from 6.3 +/- 2.5 to 20.7 +/- 6.3 pmol/l [COOH-terminal (C)-RIA, P < 0.05]. During glucagon infusion, candoxatril increased the t(1/2) determined by C-RIA (from 3.0 +/- 0.5 to 17.0 +/- 2.5 min, P < 0.005) and midregion (M)-RIA (2.8 +/- 0.5 to 17.0 +/- 3.0 min, P < 0.01) and reduced metabolic clearance rates (MCR; 19.1 +/- 3.2 to 9.4 +/- 2.0 ml.kg(-1).min(-1), P < 0.02, C-RIA; 19.2 +/- 4.8 to 9.0 +/- 2.3 ml.kg(-1).min(-1), P < 0.05, M-RIA). However, neither t(1/2) nor MCR determined by NH2-terminal (N)-RIA were significantly affected (t(1/2), 2.7 +/- 0.4 to 4.5 +/- 1.6 min; MCR, 30.3 +/- 6.4 to 28.5 +/- 9.0 ml.kg(-1).min(-1)), suggesting that candoxatril had no effect on NH2-terminal degradation but leads to the accumulation of NH2-terminally truncated forms of glucagon. Determination of arteriovenous glucagon concentration differences revealed that renal glucagon extraction was reduced (but not eliminated) by candoxatril (from 40.4 +/- 3.8 to 18.6 +/- 4.1%, P < 0.02, C-RIA; 29.2 +/- 3.1 to 14.7 +/- 2.2%, P < 0.02, M-RIA; 26.5 +/- 4.0 to 19.7 +/- 3.5%, P < 0.06, N-RIA). Femoral extraction was reduced by candoxatril when determined by C-RIA (from 22.7 +/- 2.4 to 8.0 +/- 5.1%, P < 0.05) but was not changed significantly when determined using M- or N-RIAs (10.0 +/- 2.8 to 4.7 +/- 3.7%, M-RIA; 10.5 +/- 2.5 to 7.8 +/- 4.2%, N-RIA). This study provides evidence that NEP 24.11 is an important mediator of the degradation of both endogenous and exogenous glucagon in vivo.  相似文献

The antral hormone gastrin is synthesized by processing progastrin into different peptides that stimulate gastric secretion. The effect on acid secretion depends mainly on the metabolic clearance rate of the peptides, but some of them may differ in potency and maximum acid output at similar concentrations in plasma. Sulfated and nonsulfated gastrin-6 are the smallest circulating bioactive gastrins in humans. Their effect and metabolism have now been investigated in nine normal subjects and compared with nonsulfated gastrin-17, a main product of progastrin. Maximum acid output after stimulation with gastrin-17, sulfated gastrin-6, and nonsulfated gastrin-6 were 28.3 +/- 2.0, 24.5 +/- 2.0 (P < 0.02), and 19.3 +/- 2. 3 (P < 0.05) mmol H(+)/50 min, respectively, and the corresponding EC(50) values were 43 +/- 6, 24 +/- 2 (P < 0.01), and 25 +/- 2 (not significant) pmol/l. The half-life of gastrin-17 was 5.3 +/- 0.3 min, the metabolic clearance rate (MCR) was 16.5 +/- 1.3 ml. kg(-1). min(-1), and the apparent volume of distribution (V(d)) was 124.3 +/- 9.6 ml/kg. The half-lives of sulfated and nonsulfated gastrin-6 were 2.1 +/- 0.3 and 1.9 +/- 0.3 min, the MCRs were 42.8 +/- 3.7 and 139.4 +/- 9.6 ml kg(-1) min(-1) (P < 0.01), and the V(d) were 139.0 +/- 30.5 and 392.0 +/- 81.6 (P < 0.01) ml kg(-1). All pharmacokinetic parameters differed significantly from gastrin-17 (P < 0.01). We conclude that gastrin 6 has a higher potency but a lower efficacy than gastrin-17. The efficacy of gastrin-6 is increased by tyrosine O-sulfation, which also enhances the protection against elimination.  相似文献

The removal of exogenous and endogenous glucagon from plasma was determined in vivo in sheep weighing 53 +/- 1 (mean +/- s.e.) kg. Porcine glucagon was infused intravenously for 90 min. The metabolic clearance rates (MCR) were determined from plateau immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) concentrations in plasma and infusion rates of glucagon. The mean clearance rate (+/0 s.e.) was 16.7 +/- 1.6 litres per hour (n = 20). Upon termination of the infusion, the decrease in IRG concentrations in plasma was determined. Least-squares regression analysis of non-linear functions indicated the data fit a two-component exponential function. The time constant for the rapid component of the plasma IRG disappearance function was -0.32 +/- 0.04 min-1 (mean +/- s.e.). The time constant for the slow component was -0.22 +/- 0.008 min-1. The rate of removal of endogenous glucagon was estimated during the infusion of somatostatin when glucagon secretion was inhibited. The time constants (mean +/. s.e., n = 8) for the decrease in IRG during somatostatin infusion were -0.42 +/- 0.08 and -0.003 +/- 0.002 min-1 for fast and slow components, respectively. The time constants for the rapid components of exogenous and endogenous glucagon were not significantly different. This suggests that endogenous and exogenous glucagon are similarly removed from plasma.  相似文献

The disappearance of glycerol from plasma was studied after a single intravenous injection to estimate its volume of distribution (Vdist), plasma clearance rate, and rate constant for irreversible loss (kd). Studies were repeated before and after birth of the lamb to test whether loss of the placenta could account for rapidly increasing plasma concentrations in the newborn. The disappearance of glycerol was closely described by a double-exponential model in each instance. In fetal sheep Vdist averaged 0.41 +/- 0.15 (SD) 1/kg fetal wt (n = 15). This volume decreased to 0.33 +/- 0.11 l/kg (n = 8) soon after functionally removing the placenta (by snaring the umbilical cord and maintaining the fetus with intrauterine ventilation), but the change was not significant. In newborn lambs 1-3 days of age, Vdist averaged 0.45 +/- 0.11 l/kg (n = 5, NS). Plasma clearance rate also did not change significantly, averaging 7.9 +/- 2.9, 7.9 +/- 3.8, and 9.0 +/- 5.9 ml.min-1.kg-1 in the fetus, after simulated birth, and in the newborn lamb, respectively, kd also was not altered measurably and averaged 0.020 +/- 0.006, 0.024 +/- 0.007, and 0.019 +/- 0.007 min-1 during the same time periods. Similar results were obtained by using three widely different amounts of infused glycerol. The results indicate that removal of glycerol does not depend on placental function to an appreciable extent. It is concluded that plasma glycerol concentration reflects principally glycerol turnover and, hence, lipolysis before and after birth.  相似文献

We reported that plasma human atrial natriuretic polypeptide (hANP) in healthy aged men was significantly higher than that in young men, presumably due to a diminished cellular response to endogenous hANP in the aged subjects (J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab., 64 (1987) 81). To examine the effect of age on the metabolic clearance rate for hANP, synthetic alpha-hANP (2 micrograms/kg) was administered intravenously to healthy young (n=6) and aged (n=4) men. The plasma hANP was measured by a direct radioimmunoassay. The disappearance of alpha-hANP from plasma was characterized by a biexponential decay curve, in both groups. There was no difference of the initial phase between young and aged groups (young vs aged; 1.2 +/- 0.2 min vs 2.9 +/- 1.0 min), while the second phase of alpha-hANP disappearance in the aged group was significantly prolonged compared with that in the young individuals (young vs aged; 17.3 +/- 3.9 min vs 34.3 +/- 3.0 min, P less than 0.05). We tentatively conclude that the reduced metabolic clearance rates for hANP were responsible, in part, for the high plasma concentrations in the aged men.  相似文献

The half-life (t1/2) and metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of exogenous natural porcine oxyntomodulin (porcine OXM) and the synthetic analog of rat oxyntomodulin, [Nle27]-OXM (rat OXM), were compared with that of glucagon in control, sham-operated and acutely nephrectomized rats using the primed-continuous infusion technique. The half-disappearance times for porcine OXM (8.2 +/- 0.5 min) and rat OXM (6.4 +/- 0.5 min) were 3-fold slower than that of glucagon (1.9 +/- 0.1 min). Acute bilateral nephrectomy significantly prolonged the half-disappearance time of rat OXM (8.2 +/- 0.7 min) and glucagon (3.6 +/- 0.4 min) compared with that of sham-operated animals (6.5 +/- 0.8 min and 2.5 +/- 0.2 min, respectively). The mean MCRs were similar for porcine and rat OXM (11.3 +/- 0.7 and 11.9 +/- 0.5 ml.kg-1.min-1) but were 3 times lower than that measured with glucagon (36 +/- 5 ml.kg-1.min-1). Bilateral nephrectomy reduced the MCR of OXM and glucagon by 38% and 34%, respectively. No significant increase in C-terminal glucagon immunoreactivity was noticed during infusion of either porcine or rat OXM, measured directly in plasma, with a specific C-terminal glucagon antiserum or after HPLC. In the course of the glucagon infusion, blood glucose was increased 2-fold, while the same dose of porcine OXM or of rat OXM induced only a small increase over the values in phosphate buffer-infused rats. 10 times higher doses of rat OXM were necessary to obtain a similar hyperglycemic effect. These results indicate that: (1) the metabolism of OXM is 3-fold slower than that of glucagon, (2) renal clearance contributed close to 35% of the overall metabolic plasma extraction for OXM and glucagon and (3) OXM, although effective at a higher dose, when compared with glucagon, displays a hyperglycemic effect probably through the glucagon receptors.  相似文献

Changes in metabolic clearance rate (MCR) and production rate (PR) of estradiol-17 beta (E2) and testosterone (T) were evaluated in crossbred boars averaging 35 +/- 1, 91 +/- 3, 118 +/- 4 and 177 +/- 6 kg at 80, 160, 260 and 560 days of age, respectively. A comparison of E2 and T MCR determined in blood or plasma was made in castrate and intact boars at 180 days of age. In the two experiments, estimates of MCR of E2 and T were consistently greater (22.0 and 23.8%) in blood than in plasma. These differences were not influenced by age of boar or castration. The MCR (l X day X kg BW) for E2 and T in plasma was greater (P less than 0.05) for 80-day-old prepuberal boars than the three groups of older boars. Production rates of E2 and T were lower in boars at 80 days of age than in older boars. Thus, a reduction in the MCR and an increase in PR of E2 and T in the boar are involved in the increased concentrations of circulating steroids associated with puberal development. Difference in MCR, determined in blood and plasma for both E2 and T, suggests that the contribution of the cellular component of blood to MCR studies in pigs should not be ignored.  相似文献

This study examined the effects of preexercise glucose administration, with and without epinephrine infusion, on carbohydrate metabolism in horses during exercise. Six horses completed 60 min of treadmill exercise at 55 +/- 1% maximum O(2) uptake 1) 1 h after oral administration of glucose (2 g/kg; G trial); 2) 1 h after oral glucose and with an intravenous infusion of epinephrine (0.2 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1); GE trial) during exercise, and 3) 1 h after water only (F trial). Glucose administration (G and GE) caused hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia ( approximately 8 mM). In GE, plasma epinephrine concentrations were three- to fourfold higher than in the other trials. Compared with F, the glucose rate of appearance was approximately 50% and approximately 33% higher in G and GE, respectively, during exercise. The glucose rate of disappearance was approximately 100% higher in G than in F, but epinephrine infusion completely inhibited the increase in glucose uptake associated with glucose administration. Muscle glycogen utilization was higher in GE [349 +/- 44 mmol/kg dry muscle (dm)] than in F (218 +/- 28 mmol/kg dm) and G (201 +/- 35 mmol/kg dm). We conclude that 1) preexercise glucose augments utilization of plasma glucose in horses during moderate-intensity exercise but does not alter muscle glycogen usage and 2) increased circulating epinephrine inhibits the increase in glucose rate of disappearance associated with preexercise glucose administration and increases reliance on muscle glycogen for energy transduction.  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

I have adapted the primed-infusion technique for the rapid estimation of the metabolic clearance rate (MCR) and production rate (PR) of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) in chronically catheterized conscious rats. Following a bolus injection, [3H]-1,25(OH)2D3 was infused iv at a constant rate for 7 h. Steady-state [3H]-1,25(OH)2D3 levels in plasma were achieved within 3 h. HPLC-purification of plasma [3H]-1,25(OH)2D3 was necessary. This rapid, primed-infusion technique thus eliminates the need for protracted infusions to achieve steady-state plasma [3H]-1,25(OH)2D3 levels. The MCR averaged 0.201 +/- 0.003 ml.min-1.kg-1 in fed male rats weighing 200-300 g. This MCR is approximately 50% lower than that seen in other species. Overnight fasting was without effect on the MCR. The MCR increased in direct proportion to body weight in maturing rats (6-16 weeks old) weighing 150-450 g. Thus, the MCR can be normalized per kg across this age range. However, 1,25(OH)2D3 production and plasma levels both decreased by 65-67% as the rats matured. The failure of a 3-fold decrease in plasma 1,25(OH)2D3 levels to affect the MCR suggests that 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulates its own catabolism only at markedly elevated concentrations.  相似文献

Insulin resistance is a key pathogenic factor of type 2 diabetes (T2DM); in contrast, in type 1 diabetes (T1DM) it is considered a secondary alteration. Increased intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) content accumulation and reduced plasma adiponectin were suggested to be pathogenic events of insulin resistance in T2DM. This study was designed to assess whether IMCL content and plasma adiponectin were also associated with the severity of insulin resistance in T1DM. We studied 18 patients with T1DM, 7 older and overweight/obese patients with T2DM, and 15 nondiabetic, insulin-resistant offspring of T2DM parents (OFF) and 15 healthy individuals (NOR) as appropriate control groups matched for anthropometric features with T1DM patients by means of the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp combined with the infusion of [6,6-2H2]glucose and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the calf muscles. T1DM and T2DM patients showed reduced insulin-stimulated glucose metabolic clearance rate (MCR: 5.1 +/- 0.6 and 3.2 +/- 0.8 ml x kg(-1) min(-1)) similar to OFF (5.3 +/- 0.4 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)) compared with NOR (8.5 +/- 0.5 ml x kg(-1) min(-1), P < 0.001). Soleus IMCL content was increased in T1DM (112 +/- 15 AU), T2DM (108 +/- 10 AU) and OFF (82 +/- 13 AU) compared with NOR (52 +/- 7 AU, P < 0.05) and the result was inversely proportional to the MCR (R2 = 0.27, P < 0.001); an association between IMCL content and Hb A1c was found only in T1DM (R2 = 0.57, P < 0.001). Fasting plasma adiponectin was reduced in T2DM (7 +/- 1 microg/ml, P = 0.01) and OFF (11 +/- 1 microg/ml, P = 0.03) but not in T1DM (25 +/- 6 microg/ml), whose plasma level was increased with respect to both OFF (P = 0.03) and NOR (16 +/- 2 microg/ml, P = 0.05). In conclusion, in T1DM, T2DM, and OFF, IMCL content was associated with insulin resistance, demonstrating that IMCL accretion is a marker of insulin resistance common to both primary genetically determined and secondary metabolic (chronic hyperglycemia) alterations. The increased adiponectin levels in insulin-resistant patients with T1DM, in contrast to the reduced levels found in patients with T2DM and in OFF, demonstrated that the relationship of adiponectin to insulin resistance in humans is still unclear.  相似文献
