We tested the hypothesis that caffeine ingestion results in an exaggerated response in blood glucose and (or) insulin during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Young, fit adult males (n = 18) underwent 2 OGTT. The subjects ingested caffeine (5 mg/kg) or placebo (double blind) and 1 h later ingested 75 g of dextrose. There were no differences between the fasted levels of serum insulin, C peptide, blood glucose, or lactate and there were no differences within or between trials in these measures prior to the OGTT. Following the OGTT, all of these parameters increased (P < or = 0.05) for the duration of the OGTT. Caffeine ingestion resulted in an increase (P < or = 0.05) in serum fatty acids, glycerol, and plasma epinephrine prior to the OGTT. During the OGTT, these parameters decreased to match those of the placebo trial. In the caffeine trial the serum insulin and C peptide concentrations were significantly greater (P < or = 0.001) than for placebo for the last 90 min of the OGTT and the area under the curve (AUC) for both measures were 60 and 37% greater (P < or = 0.001), respectively. This prolonged, increased elevation in insulin did not result in a lower blood glucose level; in fact, the AUC for blood glucose was 24% greater (P = 0.20) in the caffeine treatment group. The data support our hypothesis that caffeine ingestion results in a greater increase in insulin concentration during an OGTT. This, together with a trend towards a greater rather than a more modest response in blood glucose, suggests that caffeine ingestion may have resulted in insulin resistance.  相似文献

INTRODUCTION, MATERIAL AND METHODS: Visfatin is a cytokine, mainly expressed in visceral fat, that exerts insulin-mimicking effects in rodents through activation of an insulin receptor, although the binding-site is distinct from that of insulin. However, the mechanisms that regulate visfatin synthesis are still not fully understood. In particular, it is not clear whether short-term glucose-induced hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia as well as a glucocorticoid-induced increase in insulin resistance are reflected in appreciable alterations in serum visfatin levels in humans. In order to investigate this we measured serum visfatin, glucose and insulin concentrations during a 75.0 gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) [Study 1], as well as before and after oral administration of dexamethasone [Study 2]. Study 1 included 17 subjects (2 males), aged 35.7 +/- 15.6 (mean +/- SD) years of BMI 35.2 +/- 9.3 kg/m(2). Blood samples were taken before (0 minutes) and at 60 and 120 minutes after glucose administration. Study 2 included 20 subjects (4 males, 5 subjects with type 2 diabetes), aged 42.1 +/- 17.2 years of BMI 36.7 +/- 8.38 kg/m(2) who underwent screening for Cushing's disease/syndrome. Dexamethasone was administered at a dose of 0.5 mg every 6 hours for 48 hours. Fasting serum concentrations of visfatin, glucose and insulin were assessed before (D0) and after 48 hours of dexamethasone administration (D2). Insulin resistance was assessed according to the HOMA method in non-diabetic individuals (n = 15). RESULTS: In Study 1 two subjects were found to have impaired glucose tolerance and one subject was found to have diabetes mellitus. Glucose administration resulted in a highly significant increase in insulin (from 11.4 +/- 7.2 microU/mL at 0 min to 98.9 +/- 68.6 microU/mL at 60 min and 72.6 +/- 45.1 microU/mL at 120 minute of OGTT, p < 0.001 for 60 and 120 minutes in comparison to baseline). However, there was no change in serum visfatin concentrations (84.6 +/- 11.6 ng/mL at 0 minutes, 82.6 +/- 12.7 ng/mL at 60 minutes and 81.1 +/- 14.5 ng/mL at 120 minutes of OGTT, p = ns). All subjects in Study 2 achieved suppression of cortisol concentrations below 50 nmo/l. Dexamethasone administration resulted in an increase in fasting insulin (from 11.5 +/- 6.9 to 16.9 +/- 7.6 microU/mL; p = 0.011) and an increase in HOMA (from 2.73 +/- 1.74 to 4.02 +/- 2.27; p = 0.015), albeit without a significant change in serum visfatin concentrations (61.1 +/- 19.8 vs. 68.3 +/- 19.4 ng/mL, p = ns). In neither Study 1 nor Study 2 was there any significant correlation between serum visfatin and age, BMI or HOMA. CONCLUSIONS: There is a striking difference between the marked rise in insulin concentrations and the lack of change in visfatin concentrations during the oral glucose tolerance test. This implies that it is highly unlikely that visfatin is involved in the short-term regulation of glucose homeostasis in human subjects. Dexamethasone administration (4 mg/48 hours) induces an increase in insulin resistance, although without significant change in serum visfatin concentrations. Therefore in contrast to the in vitro data, short term glucocorticoid administration does not result in appreciable changes in serum levels of this adipocytokine. Furthermore, the results of our study do not support the notion that glucocorticoid-induced insulin resistance is likely to be related to changes in serum concentrations of visfatin.  相似文献

Beta-endorphin (beta-End) and adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) were determined in the peripheral blood of 14 human volunteers exercising on a bicycle ergometer. After 1 h of submaximal work below anaerobic threshold (AT), defined as the 4 mmol X l-1 lactic acid level in arteriolar blood (Kindermann 1979; Mader 1980), beta-End and ACTH levels did not change from control conditions. Eleven of the same 14 subjects performed an uninterrupted graded exercise test on the same bicycle ergometer until exhaustion. This time beta-End and ACTH levels increased concomitantly with exercise of high intensity: at each moment, during and after this maximal test, a highly significant correlation (P less than 0.0001) was noted between the levels of beta-End and ACTH. The peak values of these hormones were reached within 10 min after stopping maximal exercise, and coincided with lactic acid peak levels. A rise in lactic acid levels above the anaerobic threshold always preceded the exercise-induced rise in beta-End and ACTH. Within the population tested, two subgroups could be distinguished: one comprising individuals whose hormonal response nearly coincided with the rise in lactic acid (rapid responders) and a second group composed of subjects whose normal response appeared delayed with respect to the lactic acid rise (slow responders). These results support the view that beta-End and ACTH are secreted in equimolar quantities into the blood circulation in response to exercise, and suggest that metabolic changes of anaerobiosis play a key role in the regulation of stress-hormone release.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The responses of plasma beta-endorphin, insulin and glucose to two different isocaloric mixed meals--high carbohydrate (CHO meal) and high fat (fat meal)--were assessed in women with android obesity before (n = 11) as well as after (n = 5) weight reduction, and in normal-weight controls (n = 8). Basal plasma beta-endorphin concentrations in the obese subjects (7.7 +/- 1.2 pmol/l) were significantly (p less than 0.005) higher than in the controls (3.8 +/- 0.5 pmol/l) and were not influenced by weight loss. Fasting plasma levels and the integrated releases of insulin and glucose, both after the CHO meal and after the fat meal were significantly higher in the obese subjects than in the controls. The fat meal induced no changes in beta-endorphin levels in either group. After the CHO meal a significant decrease in plasma beta-endorphin concentration was observed only in the obese group before weight reduction. An influence on beta-endorphin release by macronutrients is hypothesized.  相似文献

Glucose tolerance tests performed on 12 patients within 15 hours of myocardial infarction and repeated two to four weeks later showed failure of insulin secretion, hyperglycaemia, glucose intolerance, and high free fatty acid levels. More pronounced changes were found in patients with cardiogenic shock. These findings suggest that the therapeutic use of potassium, glucose, and insulin should be re-evaluated.  相似文献

Monitoring bile acids as signal molecules in combination with a bile acid synthesis marker and the FXR regulator fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19), this study addresses significant postprandial changes. The efficacy of the different pathways to regulate bile acid synthesis through short heterodimer partner (SHP) dependent FXR modulation in liver, and SHP independent activation via FGF19 is demonstrated. Characteristic changes of the bile acid profile during an oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT) were investigated in 73 individuals. 15 bile acid species including conjugated and unconjugated forms were quantitatively determined with LC–MS/MS in serum samples collected at three time points during the oGTT. All conjugated bile acid species showed the same time course, a significant increase at 60 min after the glucose intake and an incline at 120 min. In contrast, a consistent decline of all unconjugated bile acids was monitored. 7α-Hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one, an early bile acid synthesis marker, showed an inverse response with a significant decrease at 60 min which proves the efficient and rapid downregulation of CYP7A1 via FXR activation through bile acid signaling. Significantly higher levels of FGF19 were observed 120 min after glucose intake and 60 min after bile acid excursion.  相似文献

The utility of the disposition index as a measure of beta-cell compensatory capacity rests on the established hyperbolic relationship between its component insulin secretion and sensitivity measures as derived from the intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT). If one is to derive an analogous measure of beta-cell compensation from the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), it is thus necessary to first establish the existence of this hyperbolic relationship between OGTT-based measures of insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity. In this context, we tested five OGTT-based measures of secretion (insulinogenic index, Stumvoll first phase, Stumvoll second phase, ratio of total area-under-the-insulin-curve to area-under-the-glucose-curve (AUC(ins/gluc)), and incremental AUC(ins/gluc)) with two measures of sensitivity (Matsuda index and 1/Homeostasis Model of Assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)). Using a model of log(secretion measure) = constant + beta x log(sensitivity measure), a hyperbolic relationship can be established if beta is approximately equal to -1, with 95% confidence interval (CI) excluding 0. In 277 women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), the pairing of total AUC(ins/gluc) and Matsuda index was the only combination that satisfied these criteria (beta = -0.99, 95% CI (-1.66, -0.33)). This pairing also satisfied hyperbolic criteria in 53 women with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (beta = -1.02, (-1.72, -0.32)). In a separate data set, this pairing yielded distinct hyperbolae for NGT (n = 245) (beta = -0.99, (-1.67, -0.32)), IGT (n = 116) (beta = -1.18, (-1.84, -0.53)), and diabetes (n = 43) (beta = -1.37, (-2.46, -0.29)). Moreover, the product of AUC(ins/gluc) and Matsuda index progressively decreased from NGT (212) to IGT (193) to diabetes (104) (P < 0.001), consistent with declining beta-cell function. In summary, a hyperbolic relationship can be demonstrated between OGTT-derived AUC(ins/gluc) and Matsuda index across a range of glucose tolerance. Based on these findings, the product of these two indices emerges as a potential OGTT-based measure of beta-cell function.  相似文献

Increasing evidence suggests that the postprandial state is a contributing factor to the development of atherosclerosis. To evaluate the effects of acute hyperglycemia on the oxidative stress, concentrations of serum-oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL), paraoxonase 1 (PON1), and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured in subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) (n=35), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (n=25), and diabetic glucose tolerance (DGT) (n=20). In NGT group, the 2 hours' TBARS and oxLDL levels were not statistically different when compared to baseline, and 2 hours' PON1 activities were higher when compared to baseline (p<0.01). Subjects with IGT and DGT have higher 2 hours' serum TBARS and oxLDL levels than their baseline levels (p<0.01, for each). Baseline oxLDL levels of both IGT and DGT groups were higher than NGT group (p<0.01 and p<0.01, respectively). While there were not any significant differences in 2 hours' versus baseline PON1 activities in the IGT group, the 2 hours' versus baseline PON1 activities in the DGT group were significantly lower (p<0.01). The postchallenge 2 hours' PON1 activities of both IGT and DGT groups were lower than NGT group (p<0.01 and p<0.01, respectively). Baseline oxLDL was positively correlated with 2 hours' glucose (r=0.613, p<0.01) in IGT and DGT groups. PON1 activities were correlated with HDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol, and fasting glucose (r=0.680, r=0.698 and r=0.431, respectively, for each p<0.01) in NGT. In conclusion, oxidative stress occurs at an early stage in diabetes, and protective effects of HDL against atherosclerosis may be dependent on the PON1 activities.  相似文献

The effects of low blood glucose concentration during low-intensity prolonged physical exercise on the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenocortical axis were investigated in healthy young men. In experiment 1, six subjects who had fasted for 14 h performed bicycle exercise at 50% of their maximal O2 uptake until exhaustion. At the end of the exercise, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol increased significantly. However, this hormonal response was totally abolished when the same subjects exercised at the same intensity while blood glucose concentrations were maintained at the preexercise level. In experiment 2, in addition to ACTH and cortisol, the possible changes in plasma concentration of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) were investigated during exercise of the same intensity performed by six subjects. As suggested by a previous study (Tabata et al. Clin. Physiol. Oxf. 4: 299-307, 1984), when the blood glucose concentrations decreased to less than 3.3 mM, plasma concentrations of CRF, ACTH, and cortisol showed a significant increase. At exhaustion, further increases were observed in plasma CRF, ACTH, and cortisol concentrations. These results demonstrate that decreases in blood glucose concentration trigger the pituitary-adrenocortical axis to enhance secretion of ACTH and cortisol during low-intensity prolonged exercise in humans. The data also might suggest that this activation is due to increased concentration of CRF, which was shown to increase when blood glucose concentration decreased to a critical level of 3.3 mM.  相似文献

In order to establish possible alterations in the hypothalamic pituitary-adrenal axis and in ACTH-related opioids in cocaine addicts, plasma ACTH, cortisol and beta-endorphin levels were measured throughout the day in 9 cocaine addicts [age: 27 +/- 5 years (mean +/- SE); weight: 72 +/- 6.1 kg, duration of cocaine addiction: at least 2 years] on the day of their admission to a recovery community for drug abusers (first test) and after 15 days of abstinence (second test). Nine normal controls (age: 28 +/- 6 years; weight: 73 +/- 3.2 kg) were tested only once in a similar manner. Blood samples were taken at 06:00, 08:00, 10:00, 12:00, 18:00 and 20:00 h and served for hormonal assays. Urine samples were taken from cocaine addicts at 08:00 h on the experimental day and on the following day. Results of both urine assays were positive for cocaine catabolites, indicating cocaine administration during the day before the experimental test. From the day of their admission in the community (1st experimental day), the patients were forbidden to use cocaine. For 4 days after admission, they were treated with symptomatics to attenuate withdrawal symptoms. Thereafter, the patients underwent a washout period of pharmacological treatments for 10 days before being retested (second test). Urine samples taken at 08:00 h on this second experimental day and on the next day were negative for the presence of drug catabolites. During the first test, cocaine addicts showed higher plasma ACTH, cortisol and beta-endorphin levels than normal controls at all examined time points.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The present study compared the effects of vasopressin on plasma concentrations of corticotropin, cortisol and glucose in cattle and sheep. After intravenous injection of 1, 0.1 and 0.01 g vasopressin per kg body weight, the plasma vasopressin concentration increased proportionally to the injected dose, and this increase was similar in cattle and sheep. Doses of 1 and 0.1 g per kg body weight of vasopressin triggered significant responses of corticotropin, cortisol and glucose in cattle and sheep. The corticotropin response to both doses was significantly greater in sheep, whereas the glucose response was greater in cattle. The cortisol response did not differ between species. The lowest dose of vasopressin (0.01 g per kg body weight) still induced a significant cortisol response without a substantial effect on plasma corticotropin, suggesting that a direct action of vasopressin on the adrenals may contribute to the observed cortisol response. The results demonstrate that vasopressin increases plasma levels of corticotropin, cortisol and glucose in cattle, as it does in sheep, but the intensities of the corticotropin and glucose responses to vasopressin differ between cattle and sheep. The reasons for these differences remain to be clarified.Abbreviations ACTH corticotropin - AVP vasopressin - bw body weight  相似文献

Objective: Glucose exerts a dual action in the regulation of energy balance, consisting of inhibition of energy intake and stimulation of energy expenditure. Whether blood glucose affects long‐term regulation of body weight in humans remains to be established. We sought to test the hypothesis that the post‐challenge glucose response is a predictor of weight change. Research Methods and Procedures: We performed a prospective analysis of the impact of glucose response to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and a mixed‐meal test (MT) on subsequent changes in body weight (BW) on 253 Pima Indians (166 men and 87 women) with normal glucose regulation at baseline and follow‐up (follow‐up: 7 ± 4 years). Main outcome measures included BW change (total, percent, and annual), plasma glucose and insulin concentrations during OGTT and MT [total and incremental areas under the curve (AUCs)], resting metabolic rate (RMR; indirect calorimetry), and insulin action (euglycemic‐hyperinsulinemic clamp). Results: Total and incremental glucose AUCs during the OGTT (but not the MT) were negatively associated with BW change (total, percent, and annual), both before and after adjusting for sex, age, initial BW, follow‐up time, insulin action, RMR, fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations, and insulin response. Total and incremental glucose AUCs during the OGTT were independent determinants of final BW with age, initial BW, follow‐up time, fasting plasma insulin concentrations, and RMR. Discussion: Higher post‐challenge glucose response protects against BW gain in subjects with normal glucose regulation. We propose that this action may be because of the effect of glucose on food intake and/or thermogenesis.  相似文献

Cyclic AMP, glucose and cortisol in plasma during surgery.   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Cyclic AMP, glucose and cortisol in plasma were measured before, during and after major surgery (hysterectomy, six patients) and minor surgery (tympanoplasty, 10 patients). During major surgery cyclic AMP as well as glucose and cortisol showed a pronounced increase. During minor surgery cyclic AMP, glucose and cortisol levels were significantly lower than in the group undergoing major surgery. It is concluded that the increase of plasma cyclic AMP during operative procedures is related to the severity of the trauma.  相似文献

β-Endorphin (BE) infusion at rest can influence insulin and glucagon levels and thus may affect glucose availability during exercise. To clarify the effect of BE on levels of insulin, glucagon and glucose during exercise, 72 untrained male Sprague-Dawley rats were infused i.v. with either: (1) BE (bolus 0.05 mg · kg−1 +0.05 mg · kg−1 · h−1, n = 24); (2) naloxone (N, bolus 0.8 mg · kg−1 + 0.4 mg · kg−1, n = 24); or (3) volume-matched saline (S, n = 24). Six rats from each group were killed after 0, 60, 90 or 120 min of running at 22 m · min−1, at 0% gradient. BE infusion resulted in higher plasma glucose levels at 60 min [5.93 (0.32) mM] and 90 min [4.16 (0.29) mM] of exercise compared to S [4.62 (0.27) and 3.41 (0.26 mM] and N [4.97 (0.38) and 3.44 (0.25) mM]. Insulin levels decreased to a greater extent with BE [21.5 (0.9) and 18.3 (0.6) uIU · ml−1] at 60 and 90 min compared to S [24.5 (0.5) and 20.6 (0.6) uIU · ml−1] and N [24.5 (0.4) and 21.6 (0.7) uIU · ml−1] groups. Plasma C-peptide declined to a greater extent at 60 and 90 min of exercise with BE infusion compared to both S and N. BE infusion increased glucagon at all times during exercise compared to S and N. These data suggest that BE infusion during exercise influences plasma glucose by augmenting glucagon levels and attenuating insulin release. Accepted: 26 February 1997  相似文献
