1. The work investigated hepatic glycogen synthesis and glucose output after the intragastric administration of glucose or glycerol or the provision of chow ad libitum to 48 h-starved euthyroid or hyperthyroid rats. 2. After glucose administration, glycogen synthesis via the indirect pathway [Newgard, Hirsch, Foster & McGarry (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 8046-8052] occurred concomitantly with reversal of glucose flux across the liver and re-activation of pyruvate kinase in the euthyroid controls. Glycogen synthesis was decreased and net glucose output continued in the hyperthyroid rats, but normal re-activation of pyruvate kinase was observed. 3. Use of 3-mercaptopicolinate indicated that the glucose released from liver of hyperthyroid rats was synthesized from substrates metabolized via the gluconeogenic pathway. 4. Hepatic glycogen synthesis was also impaired in hyperthyroid rats after administration of glycerol or chow. Measurement of portal-minus-hepatovenous concentration differences and arterial glucose concentrations after the administration of glycerol in combination with 3-mercaptopicolinate indicated that flux from triose phosphate to glucose 6-phosphate was not decreased. 5. Inhibited glycogen synthesis after chow re-feeding was associated with accelerated re-activation of hepatic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in the hyperthyroid rats. 6. The results indicate three distinct and independent actions of hyperthyroidism after re-feeding: (i) it inhibits the reversal of glucose flux across the liver normally observed in response to carbohydrate; (ii) it affects glycogen deposition at a site distal to glucose 6-phosphate; (iii) it allows more rapid re-activation of liver pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in response to a mixed diet.  相似文献

The administration of glucose to 48 h-starved euthyroid or hyperthyroid rats led to decreased blood concentrations of fatty acids and ketone bodies in both groups, but fatty acid concentrations were higher and ketone-body concentrations lower in the latter group. Decreased ketonaemia was not due to increased ketone-body clearance. Flux through carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 was increased, consistent with the effects of hyperthyroidism on enzyme activity demonstrated in vitro. Correlations between the concentrations of ketone bodies and long-chain acylcarnitine measured in freeze-clamped liver samples indicated that a lower proportion of the product of beta-oxidation was used for ketone-body synthesis. Citrate concentrations were unaffected by hyperthyroidism, but lipogenesis was increased. The results are discussed in relation to the factors controlling hepatic carbon flux and energy requirements after re-feeding.  相似文献

1. A trace amount of glucose labelled with 14C uniformly and with 3H at position 2, 3 or 6 was injected intravenously into starved rats to measure the turnover rate of blood glucose. 2. Reliable estimates were made based on the semilogarithmic plot of specific radioactivity of the glucose contained in whole blood samples taken from the tail vein. 3. Glucose turned over more rapidly in hyperthyroid and more slowly in hypothyroid than in euthyroid rats. The percentage contribution of glucose recycling (determined from the difference in replacement rates between [U-14C]glucose and [6-3H]glucose) to the glucose utilization increased on induction of hyperthyroidism. 4. Futile cycles between glucose and glucose 6-phosphate (determined from the difference between replacement rates of [2-3H]glucose and [6-3H]glucose) were activated and inactivated by induction of hyperthyroid and hypothyroid states respectively. 5. The hepatic content of glycogen was much lower in hyper- and hypo-thyroid than in euthyroid rats. The enhanced glucose production in hyperthyroid rats resulted from not only activationof hepatic gluconeogenesis but also diversion of the final product of gluconeogenesis from liver glycogen to blood glucose. In hypothyroidism, the inhibition of gluconeogensis led to suppression of both glucose production and glycogenesis in the liver.  相似文献

Starvation for 48 h elicited a 74% increase in hepatic pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) kinase activity, measured directly by 32Pi-incorporation from [gamma-32P]ATP into a synthetic peptide corresponding to the major phosphorylation site on E1. The administration of chow ad libitum to previously-starved rats suppressed hepatic PDH kinase activity by only approx. 20% within 2 h of re-feeding, and the relatively high activity of PDH kinase was associated with continued suppression of PDC complex re-activation. Whereas there was no further decline in PDH kinase activity over the next 2 h, PDC re-activation to the fed value was observed during this time interval. PDH kinase activity decreased to fed values only after 8 h.  相似文献

Triiodothyronine induced hyperthyroidism caused significantly elevated basal and stimulated glucose and insulin levels in rats. The release of Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP) following an oral glucose load was not significantly different between euthyroid and hyperthyroid rats. The insulin response, however, was significantly higher in hyperthyroid rats. Following intravenous glucose hyperthyroid rats showed a diminished insulin response when compared with euthyroid rats but intravenous infusion of glucose together with GIP caused a significantly higher insulin response in hyperthyroid rats. It is hypothesized that in hyperthyroidism there is an increased sensitivity to the insulinotropic action of GIP and that this mechanism could emphasize the importance of the enteroinsular axis in pathophysiological states.  相似文献

1. The effects of hypothyroidism (caused by surgical thyroidectomy followed by treatment for 1 month with propylthiouracil) and of hyperthyroidism [induced by subcutaneous administration of L-tri-iodothyronine (T3)] on glucose tolerance and skeletal-muscle sensitivity to insulin were examined in rats. Glucose tolerance was estimated during 2 h after subcutaneous glucose injection (1 g/kg body wt.). The sensitivity of the soleus muscle to insulin was studied in vitro in sedentary and acutely exercised animals. 2. Glucose tolerance was impaired in both hypothyroid and hyperthyroid rats in comparison with euthyroid controls. 3. In the soleus muscle, responsiveness of the rate of lactate formation to insulin was abolished in hypothyroid rats, whereas the sensitivity of the rate of glycogen synthesis to insulin was unchanged. In hyperthyroid animals, opposite changes were found, i.e. responsiveness of the rate of glycogen synthesis was inhibited and the sensitivity of the rate of lactate production did not differ from that in control sedentary rats. 4. A single bout of exercise for 30 min potentiated the stimulatory effect of insulin on lactate formation in hyperthyroid rats and on glycogen synthesis in hypothyroid animals. 5. The data suggest that thyroid hormones exert an interactive effect with insulin in skeletal muscle. This is likely to be at the post-receptor level, inhibiting the effect of insulin on glycogen synthesis and stimulating oxidative glucose utilization.  相似文献

The aim was to establish whether increased cardiac fatty acid oxidation in hyperthyroidism is due to direct alterations in cardiac metabolism which favour fatty acid oxidation and/or whether normal regulatory links between changes in glucose supply and fatty acid oxidation are dysfunctional. Euthyroid rats were sampled in the absorptive state or after 48 h starvation. Rats were rendered hyperthyroid by injection of tri-iodothyronine (1000 microg/kg body wt. per day; 3 days). We evaluated the regulatory significance of direct effects of hyperthyroidism by measuring rates of palmitate oxidation in the absence or presence of glucose using cardiac myocytes. The results were examined in relation to the activity/regulatory characteristics of cardiac carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) estimated by measuring rates of [3H]palmitoylcarnitine formation from [3H]carnitine and palmitoyl-CoA by isolated mitochondria. To define the involvement of other hormones, we examined whether hyperthyroidism altered basal or agonist-stimulated cardiac cAMP concentrations in cardiac myocytes and whether the effects of hyperthyroidism could be reversed by 24 h exposure to insulin infused subcutaneously (2 i. u. per day; Alzet osmotic pumps). Rates of 14C-palmitate oxidation (to 14CO2) by cardiac myocytes were significantly increased (1.6 fold; P< 0.05) by hyperthyroidism, whereas the percentage suppression of palmitate oxidation by glucose was greatly diminished. Cardiac CPT activities in mitochondria from hyperthyroid rats were 2-fold higher and the susceptibility of cardiac CPT activity to inhibition by malonyl-CoA was decreased. These effects were not mimicked by 48 h starvation. The decreased susceptibility of cardiac CPT activities to malonyl-CoA inhibition in hyperthyroid rats was normalised by 24 h exposure to elevated insulin concentration. Acute insulin addition did not influence the response to glucose in cardiac myocytes from euthyroid or hyperthyroid rats and basal and agonist-stimulated cAMP concentrations were unaffected by hyperthyroidism in vivo. The data provide insight into possible mechanisms by which hyperthyroidism facilitates fatty acid oxidation by the myocardium, identifying changes in cardiac CPT activity and malonyl-CoA sensitivity that would be predicted to render cardiac fatty acid oxidation less sensitive to external factors influencing malonyl-CoA content, and thereby to favour fatty acid oxidation. The increased CPT activity observed in response to hyperthyroidism may be a consequence of an impaired action of insulin but occurs through a cAMP-independent mechanism.  相似文献

We investigated the temporal relationship between hepatic glycogen depletion and cardiac and hepatic PDH (pyruvate dehydrogenase complex) activities during the acute phase of starvation. There was a striking correlation between the decline in hepatic glycogen and PDH inactivation during the first 10 h of starvation. Re-feeding after 6 h starvation was associated with complete re-activation of PDH in liver and re-activation to approx. 75% of the fed value in heart, whereas in rats previously starved for 24-48 h re-activation was delayed in liver and diminished in heart. The results are discussed with reference to the fate of dietary carbohydrate after re-feeding.  相似文献

1. The effects of intragastric glucose feeding and L-tri-iodothyronine (T3) administration on rates of hepatic and brown-fat lipogenesis in vivo were examined in fed and 48 h-starved rats. 2. T3 treatment increased hepatic lipogenesis in the fed but not the starved animals. Brown-fat lipogenesis was unaffected or slightly decreased by T3 treatment of fed or starved rats. 3. Intragastric glucose feeding increased hepatic lipogenesis in control or T3-treated fed rats, but did not increase hepatic lipogenesis in starved control rats. Glucose feeding increased hepatic lipogenesis if the starved rats were treated with T3. Glucose feeding increased rates of brown-fat lipogenesis in all experimental groups. The effects of glucose feeding on liver and brown-fat lipogenesis were mimicked by insulin injection. 4. The increase in hepatic lipogenesis in T3-treated 48 h-starved rats after intragastric glucose feeding was prevented by short-term insulin deficiency, but not by (-)-hydroxycitrate, an inhibitor of ATP citrate lyase. The increase in lipogenesis in brown adipose tissue in response to glucose feeding was inhibited by both short-term insulin deficiency and (-)-hydroxycitrate. 5. The results tend to preclude pyruvate kinase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase as the sites of interaction of insulin and T3 in the regulation of hepatic lipogenesis in 48 h-starved rats. Other potential sites of interaction are discussed.  相似文献

1. In euthyroid rats, treatment with reserpine of 6-hydroxydopamine, which deprived neuronal terminals of catecholamines, resulted in increases in rates and rate coefficients for blood glucose turnover in the starved states as determined by decay of [U-14C,6-3H]-glucose. Conversely, the injection of adrenaline or noradrenaline into starved euthyroid rats caused a marked decrease in rate coeeficients for glucose turnover. There was no change in the percentage glucose recycling under these conditions. 2. Adrenaline and noradrenaline caused more pronounced hyperglycaemia in hyperthyroid than in euthyroid rats owing to the greater activation of hepatic glucose production. 3. The increase in glucose turnover characteristics of hyperthyroidism was observed even after treatment with an alpha- or beta-adrenergic antagonist, showing the insignificant role of the balance between alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors in the thyroid-dependent metabolic changes. 4. Rate coefficients for glucose turnover were not affected by reserpine treatment or catecholamine injections when rats had been rendered hyperthyroid. 5. Thus catecholamines are direct determinants of glucose-turnover rates in the starved state, and depend to some extent on the prevailing thyroid state.  相似文献

In the fed state, hyperthyroidism increased glucose utilization indices (GUIs) of skeletal muscles containing a lower proportion of oxidative fibres. Glycogen concentrations were unchanged, but active pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDHa) activities were decreased. Hyperthyroidism attenuated the effects of 48 h of starvation to decrease muscle GUI. Glycogen concentrations and PDHa activities after 48 h of starvation were low and similar in euthyroid and hyperthyroid rats. The increase in glucose uptake and phosphorylation relative to oxidation and storage in skeletal muscle induced by hyperthyroidism may contribute to increased glucose re-cycling in the fed hyperthyroid state and to glucose turnover in the starved hyperthyroid state.  相似文献

The effects of thyrotoxicosis on insulin secretion were studied in 11 patients with Graves' disease and compared with the results obtained in 6 of the patients after they had attained clinical remission. Constant glucose infusion (CGI) and acute tolbutamide infusion (AIT) tests were chosen to investigate beta-cell function. For similar means of fasting plasma glucose, basal plasma insulin mean was significantly higher during thyrotoxicosis. During AIT, mean peak insulin was obtained earlier in the hyperthyroid state (2 min) than after remission (4 min), being its level higher in the hyperthyroid state. During CGI, early insulin responses to similar plasma glucose increments, were comparable for both hyper and euthyroid subjects. After 10 minutes of CGI, insulin concentrations in the hyperthyroid state did not increase as in the euthyroid state in spite of comparable increments of plasma glucose, being similar plateau insulin levels attained thereafter. These results suggest the presence of an insulin-resistant state in hyperthyroidism which may either disappear during a chronic glucose infusion and/or be accompanied by a deficient late glucose-induced insulin release.  相似文献

The effect of hypo- and hyper-thyroidism on insulin-mediated alterations in tracer-determined glucose kinetics and the arterial concentration of gluconeogenic precursors were investigated in 24 h-starved conscious unrestrained miniature pigs. Hyperinsulinaemia (about 40 microunits/ml) decreased blood glucose and, transiently, glucose output at unaltered glucose utilization in all thyroid states: this effect was pronounced in hyperthyroid (-50%) and less in hypothyroid pigs (-25%) compared with euthyroid controls (-35%). We conclude that moderate experimental hyperthyroidism does not induce hepatic insulin resistance, whereas hypothyroidism slightly impairs insulin action with respect to the regulation of glucose output.  相似文献

Glucose metabolism was studied as evidenced by the sugar and pyruvic acid levels in blood and glycogen and pyruvic acid content of tissues in euthyroid, hypothyroid and hyperthyroid rats by giving insulin. Results show that in a normal thyroxine-excess insulin state, the rise in blood sugar was less, glycogenesis was much enhanced and glycolysis was reduced in comparison to these data in the euthyroid state. When tyroxine deficiency was associated with excess insulin, glycogenesis was enhanced further and an almost complete inhibition of glycolysis was observed. In excess thyroxine-excess insulin state glycogenesis was increased at the expense of glycolysis in comparison to the finding in the hyperthyroid state. Thus exogenous insulin in the euthyroid state altered the pattern of carbohydrate metabolism enhancing glycogenesis and inhibiting glycolysis. In a low thyroxine-excess insulin state, further enhancement of glycogenesis and inhibition of glycolysis were observed. But in an excess thyroxine-excess insulin state, the higher thyroxine activity was somewhat neutralized by higher insulin action allowing glycogenesis with glucose to proceed to some extent.  相似文献

We investigated the capacity for pyruvate oxidation in skeletal muscle, diaphragm and heart after starvation and re-feeding. Starvation for 48 h decreased pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity in soleus (by 47%), extensor digitorum longus (64%), gastrocnemius (86%), diaphragm (87%), adductor longus (90%), tibialis anterior (92%) and heart (99%). Chow re-feeding increased PDH activity in all muscles to 43-78% of the fed value within 2 h. However, complete re-activation was not observed for at least 4-6 h, during which time hepatic glycogen was replenished. We discuss the importance of muscle PDH activity in relation to sparing carbohydrate for hepatic glycogen synthesis.  相似文献

It has been suggested that part of the increased beta-catecholamine responsiveness in hyperthyroid animals is due to a decrease in alpha-catecholamine action. The present results indicate that neither hyperthyroidism nor hypothyroidism altered the alpha 2-adrenergic inhibition of adenylate cyclase or the alpha 1-adrenergic stimulation of phosphatidylinositol turnover in adipocytes from the white adipose tissue of hamsters. No effect of hyperthyroidism was found on the Kd for binding of [3H]dihydroergocryptine or the number of binding sites in membranes prepared from hamster adipocyte tissue. The stimulation of cyclic AMP due to beta-catecholamines was enhanced in adipocytes from hyperthyroid hamsters, as was lipolysis. However, in adipocytes from hyperthyroid hamsters the maximal stimulation of cyclic AMP due to isoproterenol, ACTH or epinephrine plus yohimbine, as seen in the presence of adenosine deaminase and theophylline, was less than in adipocytes from euthyroid hamsters. The activation of adenylate cyclase by isoproterenol was the same in membranes from hyperthyroid as compared to those from euthyroid hamsters in the absence or presence of guanine nucleotides. These data suggest that thyroid status has little effect on alpha-catecholamine action by enhances the activation of lipolysis by beta-catecholamine agonists.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate ghrelin and resistin concentrations in patients with hyperthyroidism before and after restoration to a euthyroid state and to correlate the 2 peptides with anthropometric and insulin resistance parameters.MethodsThe study included hyperthyroid patients and euthyroid healthy participants as a control group. Hyperthyroid patients were evaluated at the start of the study and after normalization of thyroid function with appropriate antithyroid drugs. Anthropometric parameters, insulin resistance parameters (fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance), thyroid function tests, and measurement of ghrelin and resistin were assessed in patients and control participants.ResultsThe study included 40 hyperthyroid patients (32 women and 8 men, aged 26-42 years) and 30 euthyroid healthy participants (20 women and 10 men, aged 25-43 years) as a control group. In hyperthyroid patients, serum resistin levels and insulin resistance parameters werehigher and plasma ghrelin levels were lower than in control participants (P <.001), and all normalized after treatment. Ghrelin levels were correlated only with insulin resistance parameters, but no correlations with any anthropometric or laboratory data were found. Resistin levels did not correlate with any clinical or laboratory data of hyperthyroid patients.ConclusionIn hyperthyroid patients, resistin was increased and ghrelin was decreased, they were not related to anthropometric parameters, and they normalized after treatment of hyperthyroidism.

Metabolism of apolipoprotein (apo)A-I was studied in normal and chow-fed hyperthyroid rats, in 24-h fasted untreated male rats, and in rats after thyroparathyroidectomy (TXPTX). Rats were made hyperthyroid by administration of T3 (9.6 micrograms/day) or T4 (30 micrograms/day) with an Alzet osmotic minipump. Hyperthyroidism produced a similar two- to threefold elevation in plasma levels of apoA-I in male or female animals. During treatment with T3, plasma levels of T3 ranged from 200 to 400 ng/dl and did not correlate with plasma apoA-I levels. The net mass secretion and synthesis ([3H]leucine incorporation) of apoA-I by perfused livers from male hyperthyroid rats was elevated, while secretion of albumin was not different than that of euthyroid rats. Furthermore, the incorporation of [3H]leucine into total perfusate and hepatic protein was not altered by hyperthyroidism. The effect of thyroid hormone on apoA-I synthesis, therefore, does not appear to be a general effect on protein synthesis. After longer periods of treatment (28 days) with T3 (9.6 micrograms/day), hepatic apoA-I production decreased from that observed after 7 or 14 days of treatment, yet plasma apoA-I concentrations remained elevated. Plasma T3 decreased from 100 ng/dl to 40 ng/dl, in the hypothyroid rat resulting from TXPTX, but the plasma concentration of apoA-I did not change during the 2-week experimental period. The net secretion of apoA-I by livers from hypothyroid animals was depressed and albumin was uneffected compared to the euthyroid. Overnight fasting of euthyroid rats did not alter hepatic apoA-I secretion or plasma apoA-I levels, although under fasting conditions we had reported that hepatic output of apoB and E of VLDL is depressed. The addition of oleic acid to the perfusion medium, sufficient to stimulate VLDL production, did not affect net hepatic secretion of apoA-I by livers from euthyroid, hyperthyroid, or hypothyroid rats. In summary, hepatic synthesis of apoA-I appears to be controlled independently of other apo-lipoproteins and secretory proteins (albumin). Hepatic apoA-I synthesis is sensitive to thyroid status, increased in the hyperthyroid and decreased in the hypothyroid state. The specific stimulation of hepatic synthesis and secretion of apoA-I in the hyperthyroid state, however, tends to normalize over an extended period, perhaps from compensatory effects of a hormonal nature.  相似文献

Although protein turnover in skeletal muscle is increased in hyperthyroidism and decreased in hypothyroidism, a deficient protein intake tends to increase serum T3 (tri-iodothyronine) while decreasing muscle protein turnover. To determine whether this diet-induced decrease in protein turnover can occur independent of thyroid status, we have examined muscle protein turnover and nitrogen conservation in hyperthyroid rats fed on a protein-free diet. After inducing hyperthyroidism by giving 20 micrograms of T3/100g body wt. daily for 7 days, groups of euthyroid and hyperthyroid animals were divided into subgroups fed on basal and protein-free diets. Muscle protein turnover was measured by N tau-methylhistidine excretion and [14C]tyrosine infusion. Urinary nitrogen output of euthyroid and hyperthyroid animals fed on the protein-free diet was also measured. Although hyperthyroidism increased the baseline rates of muscle protein synthesis and degradation, it did not prevent a decrease in these values in response to protein depletion. Furthermore, hyperthyroid rats showed greatly decreased nitrogen excretion in response to the protein-free diet, although not to values for euthyroid rats. These findings suggest that protein depletion made the experimental animals less responsive to the protein-catabolic effects of T3.  相似文献

Arteriovenous glucose difference across the mammary gland of the lactating rat was used as an 'instantaneous' monitor of mammary glucose uptake. Plasma [glucose] and arteriovenous glucose difference varied according to whether Halothane, diethyl ether or sodium pentobarbitone anaesthesia was used. In pentobarbitone-treated rats a 60% glucose extraction in the fed state decreased to 5% after 18 h starvation, and recovered to 40% and 59% after 15 min and 60 min re-feeding respectively. The increase and decrease in plasma [fatty acids] and the depletion and restoration of hepatic glycogen mostly followed similar time courses. Re-feeding was accompanied by a brief surge of plasma [insulin]. Starved lactating rats showed a markedly greater capacity than age-matched virgin rats in the oral and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests. Mammary glucose uptake in the starved rat was significantly restored by oral or intraperitoneal glucose or by insulin, but not by acetoacetate or by heparin-induced elevation of plasma [fatty acids]. The role of insulin and of possible changes in mammary sensitivity to insulin in the return of mammary glucose uptake on re-feeding is discussed.  相似文献
