During insulin-induced hypoglycemia, there is an increase in extracellular norepinephrine (NE) in the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH). This brain area is known to play an important role in integrated hormonal and behavioral responses to systemic hypoglycemia. Selective glucoprivation restricted to the VMH is both necessary and sufficient to initiate secretion of counterregulatory hormones. The present study was designed to investigate whether increased release of NE in the VMH depends on detection of glucoprivation localized in this area. In awake, chronically catheterized male Sprague-Dawley rats, extracellular NE in the VMH was monitored using 1-mm microdialysis probes perfused with Krebs Ringer buffer (KRB) or KRB + 100 mM d-glucose (d-Glc). During insulin-induced hypoglycemia (glycemic nadir approximately 2.4 mM) extracellular NE was increased to >160% of baseline (P < 0.01) only in the KRB + insulin group. There was no increase in NE from baseline when glucose was added to the perfusate to maintain euglycemia at the periprobe environment. The sympathoadrenal response to hypoglycemia, present in the KRB + insulin group, was attenuated in the d-Glc + insulin group. The present results confirm that noradrenergic activation in the VMH during systemic hypoglycemia depends on detection of glucoprivation locally in this area. These data provide additional support for the importance of increased noradrenergic activity in the VMH in the counterregulatory hormonal responses to hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Animals respond to hypoglycemia by eating and by stimulating gluconeogenesis. These responses to glucose deprivation are initiated by glucose-sensing neurons in the brain, but the neural circuits that control feeding behavior are not well established. Neurons in the arcuate region of the hypothalamus that express neuropeptide Y (NPY) and agouti-related protein (AgRP) have been implicated in mediating the feeding response to glucoprivation. We devised a method to selectively ablate these neurons in neonatal mice and then tested adult mice for their feeding responses to fasting, mild hypoglycemia, 2-deoxy-d-glucose and a ghrelin receptor agonist. Whereas the feeding response to the ghrelin receptor agonist was completely abrogated, the feeding response to glucoprivation was normal. The feeding response after a fast was attenuated when standard chow was available but normal with more palatable solid or liquid diet. We conclude that NPY/AgRP neurons are not necessary for generating or mediating the orexigenic response to glucose deficiency, but they are essential for the feeding response to ghrelin and refeeding on standard chow after a fast.  相似文献

Antecedent hypoglycemia leads to impaired counterregulation and hypoglycemic unawareness. To ascertain whether antecedent portal vein hypoglycemia impairs portal vein glucose sensing, thereby inducing counterregulatory failure, we compared the effects of antecedent hypoglycemia, with and without normalization of portal vein glycemia, upon the counterregulatory response to subsequent hypoglycemia. Male Wistar rats were chronically cannulated in the carotid artery (sampling), jugular vein (glucose and insulin infusion), and mesenteric vein (glucose infusion). On day 1, the following three distinct antecedent protocols were employed: 1) HYPO-HYPO: systemic hypoglycemia (2.52 +/- 0.11 mM); 2) HYPO-EUG: systemic hypoglycemia (2.70 +/- 0.03 mM) with normalization of portal vein glycemia (portal vein glucose = 5.86 +/- 0.10 mM); and 3) EUG-EUG: systemic euglycemia (6.33 +/- 0.31 mM). On day 2, all groups underwent a hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp in which the fall in glycemia was controlled so as to reach the nadir (2.34 +/- 0.04 mM) by minute 75. Counterregulatory hormone responses were measured at basal (-30 and 0) and during hypoglycemia (60-105 min). Compared with EUG-EUG, antecedent hypoglycemia (HYPO-HYPO) significantly blunted the peak epinephrine (10.44 +/- 1.35 vs. 15.75 +/- 1.33 nM: P = 0.01) and glucagon (341 +/- 16 vs. 597 +/- 82 pg/ml: P = 0.03) responses to next-day hypoglycemia. Normalization of portal glycemia during systemic hypoglycemia on day 1 (HYPO-EUG) prevented blunting of the peak epinephrine (15.59 +/- 1.43 vs. 15.75 +/- 1.33 nM: P = 0.94) and glucagon (523 +/- 169 vs. 597 +/- 82 pg/ml: P = 0.66) responses to day 2 hypoglycemia. Consistent with hormonal responses, the glucose infusion rate during day 2 hypoglycemia was substantially elevated in HYPO-HYPO (74 +/- 12 vs. 49 +/- 4 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1); P = 0.03) but not HYPO-EUG (39 +/- 7 vs. 49 +/- 4 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1): P = 0.36). Antecedent hypoglycemia local to the portal vein is required for the full induction of hypoglycemia-associated counterregulatory failure with slow-onset hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Despite significant technological and pharmacological advancements, insulin replacement therapy fails to adequately replicate β-cell function, and so glucose control in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is frequently erratic, leading to periods of hypoglycemia. Moreover, the counterregulatory response (CRR) to falling blood glucose is impaired in diabetes, leading to an increased risk of severe hypoglycemia. It is now clear that the brain plays a significant role in the development of defective glucose counterregulation and impaired hypoglycemia awareness in diabetes. In this review, the basic intracellular glucose-sensing mechanisms are discussed, as well as the neural networks that respond to and coordinate the body's response to a hypoglycemic challenge. Subsequently, we discuss how the body responds to repeated hypoglycemia and how these adaptations may explain, at least in part, the development of impaired glucose counterregulation in diabetes.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether activation of central type II glucocorticoid receptors can blunt autonomic nervous system counterregulatory responses to subsequent hypoglycemia. Sixty conscious unrestrained Sprague-Dawley rats were studied during 2-day experiments. Day 1 consisted of either two episodes of clamped 2-h hyperinsulinemic (30 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) hypoglycemia (2.8 +/- 0.1 mM; n = 12), hyperinsulinemic euglycemia (6.2 +/- 0.1 mM; n = 12), hyperinsulinemic euglycemia plus simultaneous lateral cerebroventricular infusion of saline (24 microl/h; n = 8), or hyperinsulinemic euglycemia plus either lateral cerebral ventricular infusion (n = 8; LV-DEX group), fourth cerebral ventricular (n = 10; 4V-DEX group), or peripheral (n = 10; P-DEX group) infusion of dexamethasone (5 microg/h), a specific type II glucocorticoid receptor analog. For all groups, day 2 consisted of a 2-h hyperinsulinemic (30 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) or hypoglycemic (2.9 +/- 0.2 mM) clamp. The hypoglycemic group had blunted epinephrine, glucagon, and endogenous glucose production in response to subsequent hypoglycemia. Consequently, the glucose infusion rate to maintain the glucose levels was significantly greater in this group vs. all other groups. The LV-DEX group did not have blunted counterregulatory responses to subsequent hypoglycemia, but the P-DEX and 4V-DEX groups had significantly lower epinephrine and norepinephrine responses to hypoglycemia compared with all other groups. In summary, peripheral and fourth cerebral ventricular but not lateral cerebral ventricular infusion of dexamethasone led to significant blunting of autonomic counterregulatory responses to subsequent hypoglycemia. These data suggest that prior activation of type II glucocorticoid receptors within the hindbrain plays a major role in blunting autonomic nervous system counterregulatory responses to subsequent hypoglycemia in the conscious rat.  相似文献

The effects of oral carbohydrate on modulating counterregulatory responses in humans remain undecided. This study's specific aim was to determine the effects of oral carbohydrate on autonomic nervous system (ANS) and neuroendocrine responses during hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and euglycemia. Nineteen healthy volunteers were studied during paired, single blind experiments. Nine subjects underwent two-step glucose clamps consisting of 60 min of euglycemia (5.0 mmol/l) followed by either 15 g of oral carbohydrate (cal) as orange juice or a noncaloric control (nocal) and subsequent 90 min of clamped hypoglycemia (2.9 mmol/l). Ten other subjects underwent two randomized 150-min hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps with cal or nocal control administered at 60 min. Oral carbohydrate initially blunted (P < 0.05) epinephrine, norepinephrine, cortisol, glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), symptom, and systolic blood pressure responses during hypoglycemia. However, by the end of 90 min of hypoglycemia, plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine responses had rebounded and were increased (P < 0.05) compared with control. MSNA and cortisol levels remained suppressed during hypoglycemia (P < 0.05) after cal, whereas pancreatic polypeptide, glucagon, symptom, and blood pressure responses increased similar to control following initial suppression. Oral carbohydrate had no effects on neuroendocrine or ANS responses during hyperinsulinemic euglycemia. These results demonstrate that oral carbohydrate can have differential effects on the time course of ANS and neuroendocrine responses during hypoglycemia. We conclude that gastro-splanchnic-portal sensing of an amount of carbohydrate recommended for use in clinical practice for correction of hypoglycemia can have widespread and significant effects on central nervous system mediated counterregulatory responses in healthy humans.  相似文献

Type 2 corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) receptors (CRFR2) within the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH), a key glucose-sensing region, play a major role in regulating the hormonal counterregulatory responses (CRRs) to acute hypoglycemia. The VMH expresses both subtypes of CRF receptors, CRFR1 and CRFR2. The objective of this study was to examine the role of the CRFR1 receptor in the VMH in the regulation of the CRR to acute hypoglycemia. To compare the hormonal CRR to hypoglycemia, awake and unrestrained Sprague-Dawley rats were bilaterally microinjected to the VMH with either 1) aECF, 2) CRF (1 pmol/side), 3) CRFR1 antagonist Antalarmin (500 pmol/side), or 4) CRF + Antalarmin prior to undergoing a hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic (2.8 mM) clamp. A second series of studies also incorporated an infusion of [(3)H]glucose to allow the calculation of glucose dynamics. In addition the effect of CRFR1 antagonism in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) was studied. Activation of VMH CRFR1 increased, whereas inhibition of CRFR1 suppressed hypoglycemia-induced CRRs. Inhibition of VMH CRFR1 also increased peripheral glucose utilization and reduced endogenous glucose production during hypoglycemia, whereas VMH CRF reduced peripheral glucose utilization. In contrast CRFR1 inhibition in the PVN blunted corticosterone but not epinephrine or glucagon CRR to hypoglycemia. In contrast to CRFR2 activation, CRFR1 activation within the VMH amplifies CRRs to acute hypoglycemia. The balance between these two opposing CRFRs in this key glucose-sensing region may play an important role in determining the magnitude of CRRs to acute hypoglycemia.  相似文献

The counterregulatory hormonal response to proinsulin-induced hypoglycemia was investigated in eight volunteers. Proinsulin cleared slower from the circulation than insulin. Hypoglycemia occurred slower (2P less than 0.005) and was prolonged, while the overall hypoglycemic activities were comparable. The antilipolytic effect of proinsulin was also prolonged (2P less than 0.001). The response of epinephrine to hypoglycemia was less pronounced after proinsulin (2P less than 0.05). The amount of epinephrine was correlated to the rate of fall in plasma glucose (P less than 0.005). The production of lactate induced by beta-stimulation was also correlated to the fall of glucose (P less than 0.005). The responses of prolactin (2P less than 0.02), norepinephrine (2P less than 0.02), cortisol, and growth hormone were attenuated following proinsulin. The decreases of serum potassium and serum phosphate (2P less than 0.05) were less pronounced. Symptoms like sweating (2P less than 0.01) and dizziness (2P less than 0.01) were milder after proinsulin. It is concluded that the rate of fall in glucose concentration determines the differing counterregulatory responses. We don't relate the differing counterregulatory responses to special insulin-like properties of proinsulin, but to the slower kinetics which is emphasized by the intravenous bolus injection.  相似文献

A marked sexual dimorphism exists in healthy individuals in the pattern of blunted neuroendocrine and metabolic responses following antecedent stress. It is unknown whether significant sex-related counterregulatory differences occur during prolonged moderate exercise after antecedent hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Fourteen patients with T1DM (7 women and 7 men) were studied during 90 min of euglycemic exercise at 50% maximal O(2) consumption after two 2-h episodes of previous-day euglycemia (5.0 mmol/l) or hypoglycemia of 2.9 mmol/l. Men and women were matched for age, glycemic control, duration of diabetes, and exercise fitness and had no history or evidence of autonomic neuropathy. Exercise was performed during constant "basal" intravenous infusion of regular insulin (1 U/h) and a 20% dextrose infusion, as needed to maintain euglycemia. Plasma glucose and insulin levels were equivalent in men and women during all exercise and glucose clamp studies. Antecedent hypoglycemia produced a relatively greater (P < 0.05) reduction of glucagon, epinephrine, norepinephrine, growth hormone, and metabolic (glucose kinetics) responses in men compared with women during next-day exercise. After antecedent hypoglycemia, endogenous glucose production (EGP) was significantly reduced in men only, paralleling a reduction in the glucagon-to-insulin ratio and catecholamine responses. In conclusion, a marked sexual dimorphism exists in a wide spectrum of blunted counterregulatory responses to exercise in T1DM after prior hypoglycemia. Key neuroendocrine (glucagon, catecholamines) and metabolic (EGP) homeostatic responses were better preserved during exercise in T1DM women after antecedent hypoglycemia. Preserved counterregulatory responses during exercise in T1DM women may confer greater protection against hypoglycemia than in men with T1DM.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that antecedent short-term administration of estradiol or progesterone into the central nervous system (CNS) reduces levels of neuroendocrine counterregulatory hormones during subsequent hypoglycemia. Conscious unrestrained male Sprague-Dawley rats were studied during randomized 2-day experiments. Day 1 consisted of an 8-h lateral ventricle infusion of estradiol (1 mug/mul; n = 9), progesterone (1 mug/mul; n = 9), or saline (0.2 mul/min; n = 10). On day 2, a 2-h hyperinsulinemic (30 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1)) hypoglycemic (2.9 +/- 0.2 mM) clamp was performed on all rats. Central administration of estradiol on day 1 resulted in significantly lower plasma epinephrine levels during hypoglycemia compared with saline, whereas central administration of progesterone resulted in increased levels of plasma norepinephrine and decreased levels of corticosterone both at baseline and during hypoglycemia. Glucagon responses during hypoglycemia were unaffected by prior administration of estradiol or progesterone. Endogenous glucose production following day 1 estradiol was significantly lower during day 2 hypoglycemia, and consequently, the glucose infusion rate to maintain the glycemia was significantly greater after estradiol administration compared with saline. These data suggest that 1) CNS administration of both female reproductive hormones can have rapid effects in modulating levels of counterregulatory hormones during subsequent hypoglycemia in conscious male rats, 2) forebrain administration of reproductive hormones can significantly reduce pituitary adrenal and sympathetic nervous system drive during hypoglycemia, 3) reproductive steroid hormones produce differential effects on sympathetic nervous system activity during hypoglycemia, and 4) reduction of epinephrine resulted in significantly blunted metabolic counterregulatory responses during hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Our aim was to determine whether complete hepatic denervation would affect the hormonal response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia in dogs. Two weeks before study, dogs underwent either hepatic denervation (DN) or sham denervation (CONT). In addition, all dogs had hollow steel coils placed around their vagus nerves. The CONT dogs were used for a single study in which their coils were perfused with 37 degrees C ethanol. The DN dogs were used for two studies in a random manner, one in which their coils were perfused with -20 degrees C ethanol (DN + COOL) and one in which they were perfused with 37 degrees C ethanol (DN). Insulin was infused to create hypoglycemia (51 +/- 3 mg/dl). In response to hypoglycemia in CONT, glucagon, cortisol, epinephrine, norepinephrine, pancreatic polypeptide, glycerol, and hepatic glucose production increased significantly. DN alone had no inhibitory effect on any hormonal or metabolic counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia. Likewise, DN in combination with vagal cooling also had no inhibitory effect on any counterregulatory response except to reduce the arterial plasma pancreatic polypeptide response. These data suggest that afferent signaling from the liver is not required for the normal counterregulatory response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely prescribed for patients with comorbid diabetes and depression. Clinical case studies in diabetic patients, however, suggest that SSRI therapy may exacerbate hypoglycemia. We hypothesized that SSRIs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia by impairing hormonal counterregulatory responses (CRR). We evaluated the effect of the SSRI sertraline on hormonal CRR to single or recurrent hypoglycemia in nondiabetic rats. Since there are time-dependent effects of SSRIs on serotonin neurotransmission that correspond with therapeutic action, we evaluated the effect of 6- or 20-day sertraline treatment on hypoglycemia CRR. We found that 6-day sertraline (SERT) treatment specifically enhanced the epinephrine response to a single bout of hypoglycemia vs. vehicle (VEH)-treated rats (t = 120: VEH, 2,573 +/- 448 vs. SERT, 4,202 +/- 545 pg/ml, P < 0.05). In response to recurrent hypoglycemia, VEH-treated rats exhibited the expected impairment in epinephrine secretion (t = 60: 678 +/- 73 pg/ml) vs. VEH-treated rats experiencing first-time hypoglycemia (t = 60: 2,081 +/- 436 pg/ml, P < 0.01). SERT treatment prevented the impaired epinephrine response in recurrent hypoglycemic rats (t = 60: 1,794 +/- 276 pgl/ml). In 20-day SERT-treated rats, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and glucagon CRR were all significantly elevated above VEH-treated controls in response to hypoglycemia. Similarly to 6-day SERT treatment, 20-day SERT treatment rescued the impaired epinephrine response in recurrent hypoglycemic rats. Our data demonstrate that neither 6- nor 20-day sertraline treatment impaired hormonal CRR to hypoglycemia in nondiabetic rats. Instead, sertraline treatment resulted in an enhancement of hypoglycemia CRR and prevented the impaired adrenomedullary response normally observed in recurrent hypoglycemic rats.  相似文献

The importance of neuropeptides in the hypothalamus has been experimentally established. Due to difficulties in assessing function in vivo, the roles of the fast-acting neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA are largely unknown. Synaptic vesicular transporters (VGLUTs for glutamate and VGAT for GABA) are required for vesicular uptake and, consequently, synaptic release of neurotransmitters. Ventromedial hypothalamic (VMH) neurons are predominantly glutamatergic and express VGLUT2. To evaluate the role of glutamate release from VMH neurons, we generated mice lacking VGLUT2 selectively in SF1 neurons (a major subset of VMH neurons). These mice have hypoglycemia during fasting secondary to impaired fasting-induced increases in the glucose-raising pancreatic hormone glucagon and impaired induction in liver of mRNAs encoding PGC-1alpha and the gluconeogenic enzymes PEPCK and G6Pase. Similarly, these mice have defective counterregulatory responses to insulin-induced hypoglycemia and 2-deoxyglucose (an antimetabolite). Thus, glutamate release from VMH neurons is an important component of the neurocircuitry that functions to prevent hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Glucagon, growth hormone and cortisol responses to insulin-induced hypoglycemia have been studied in nine normal subjects and four patients with orthostatic hypotension who also had markedly deficient sympathoadrenal medullary responses. Absence of catecholamine responses to hypoglycemia does not prevent the other hormonal responses. Glucagon, growth hormone and cortisol secretion appear to be evoked independently from the catecholamine response during hypoglycemia. Elevated basal cortisol levels are the probable cause of a delay in the nadir of hypoglycemia observed in patients with adrenergic insufficiency. The sympathetic nervous system dysfunction in patients with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension may include deficient adrenal medullary responses although other counterregulatory responses remain functional.  相似文献

Caudal hindbrain "sensing" of glucoprivation activates central neural mechanisms that enhance systemic glucose availability, but the critical molecular variable(s) linked to detection of local metabolic insufficiency remains unclear. Central neurons and glia are metabolically coupled via intercellular trafficking of the glycolytic product lactate as a substrate for neuronal oxidative respiration. Using complementary in vivo models for experimental manipulation of lactate availability within the caudal hindbrain, we investigated the hypothesis that lactate insufficiency may be monitored by local metabolically "sensitive" neurons as an indicator of central nervous system energy imbalance. The data show that caudal fourth ventricular (CV4) administration of the monocarboxylate transporter inhibitor alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate (4CIN) resulted in dose-dependent increases in blood glucose in euglycemic animals, whereas the degree and duration of hypoglycemia elicited by insulin administration were exacerbated by exogenous L-lactate delivery to the CV4. Immunocytochemical processing of the hindbrain for the inducible c-fos gene product Fos revealed that 4CIN enhanced Fos immunoreactivity in the dorsal vagal complex (DVC), e.g., the nucleus of the solitary tract and dorsal vagal motor nucleus, and adjacent area postrema, sites where cells characterized by unique sensitivity to diminished glucose and/or glycolytic intermediate/end product levels reside, and in the medial vestibular nucleus (MV), and that CV4 L-lactate infusion increased Fos labeling within the DVC and MV after insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Together, these results support the view that lactate is a critical monitored metabolic variable in caudal hindbrain detection of energy imbalance resulting from glucoprivation and that diminished uptake and/or oxidative catabolism of this fuel activates neural mechanisms that increase systemic glucose availability.  相似文献

Neuronal excitation can be substantially modulated by alterations in metabolism, as evident from the anticonvulsant effect of diets that reduce glucose utilization and promote ketone body metabolism. We provide genetic evidence that BAD, a protein with dual functions in apoptosis and glucose metabolism, imparts reciprocal effects on metabolism of glucose and ketone bodies in brain cells. These effects involve phosphoregulation of BAD and are independent of its apoptotic function. BAD modifications that reduce glucose metabolism produce a marked increase in the activity of metabolically sensitive K(ATP) channels in neurons, as well as resistance to behavioral and electrographic seizures in vivo. Seizure resistance is reversed by genetic ablation of the K(ATP) channel, implicating the BAD-K(ATP) axis in metabolic control of neuronal excitation and seizure responses.  相似文献

Changes in body fluid distribution are known to influence neuroendocrine function. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that changes in plasma volume affect the counterregulatory neuroendocrine response to hypoglycemia. The tests were performed in 12 subjects in two situations: 'head-up' (+60 degrees head-up tilt standing for 30 min and hypoglycemia in sitting position afterwards) and 'leg-up' (leg-up position for 30 min and hypoglycemia in leg-up position afterwards) in a random order. Insulin-induced hypoglycemia was adjusted to 2.7 mmol/l for 15 min by glucose infusion. Plasma volume was greater by 2.2% (p < 0.001) in leg-up and lower by 9.6% (p < 0.001) in head-up position compared to the basal value in sitting position. Head-up position was associated with increases in ACTH, aldosterone, norepinephrine levels and plasma renin activity (p < 0.01). Leg-up position resulted in decreases in plasma growth hormone and epinephrine concentrations (p < 0.05). Except epinephrine, the neuroendocrine response to hypoglycemia, if any, was mild. Hypoglycemia failed to activate ACTH release after head-up position. Body fluid redistribution did not modify hormonal changes during insulin hypoglycemia. In conclusion, we suggest that body position and accompanying plasma volume changes do not appear to affect neuroendocrine and counterregulatory responses to moderate, short duration hypoglycemia in healthy subjects.  相似文献

Exercise-induced hypoglycemia can occur within hours after exercise in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients. This study tested the hypothesis that an acute exercise bout causes (within hours) blunted autonomic and metabolic responses to subsequent hypoglycemia in patients with T1DM. Twelve T1DM patients (3 W/9 M) were studied during a single-step, 2-h hyperinsulinemic (572 +/- 4 pmol/l) hypoglycemic (2.8 +/- 0.1 mmol/l) clamp 2 h after either a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic (AM EUG) or hypoglycemic clamp (AM HYPO) or after sitting in a chair with basal insulin infusion (AM CON) or 90 min of moderate-intensity exercise (50% Vo(2 max), AM EX). Both AM HYPO and AM EX significantly blunted epinephrine responses and muscle sympathetic nerve activity responses to subsequent hypoglycemia compared with both control groups. Endogenous glucose production was significantly lower and the exogenous glucose infusion rate needed to maintain the hypoglycemic level was significantly greater during subsequent hypoglycemia in AM EX vs. CON. Rate of glucose disposal (Rd) was significantly reduced following AM HYPO. In summary, within 2.5 h, both moderate-intensity AM EX and AM HYPO blunted key autonomic counterregulatory responses. Despite this, glucose Rd was reduced during afternoon hypoglycemia following morning hypoglycemia, indicating posthypoglycemic insulin resistance. After morning exercise, endogenous glucose production was blunted, but glucose Rd was maintained during afternoon hypoglycemia, thereby indicating reduced metabolic defenses against hypoglycemia. These data suggest that exercise-induced counterregulatory failure can occur very rapidly, increasing the risk for hypoglycemia in T1DM within hours.  相似文献

Adaptation to microgravity is associated with alteration in some endocrine functions. In the present longitudinal study, the counterregulatory hormonal response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia (ITT, 0.1 IU/kg short acting insulin i. v.) was evaluated under simulated microgravity conditions in 15 physically fit subjects. ITT was performed at the beginning of the investigation, and again after completion of 6 weeks of endurance training and after a subsequent period of 4 days of head-down bed rest at a backward tilt of 6 degrees from the horizontal. Endurance training showed a significant increase in maximal aerobic capacity in previously well-trained subjects (increase by 12 %), as well as on attenuation of counterregulatory response of epinephrine to hypoglycemia. After 4 days of bed rest, basal concentrations of plasma norepinephrine was diminished (p < 0.002) and plasma renin activity was enhanced (p < 0.02). After bed rest, decreased responses of the two catecholamines (norepinephrine, p < 0.001; epinephrine, p < 0.001), growth hormone (p < 0.001), and cortisol (p < 0.05) were observed. Response of plasma renin activity after bed rest was increased (p < 0.01). This longitudinal study indicated that 4 days of bed rest in endurance-trained subjects induced increased response of PRA to hypoglycemia and attenuation of other counterregulatory neuroendocrine responses.  相似文献
