Impaired in vivo mitochondrial function but similar intramyocellular lipid content in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and BMI-matched control subjects
Open accessAbstract
Aims/hypothesis Mitochondrial dysfunction and increased intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) content have both been implicated in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus, but the relative contributions of these two factors in the aetiology of diabetes are unknown. As obesity is an independent determinant of IMCL content, we examined mitochondrial function and IMCL content in overweight type 2 diabetes patients and BMI-matched normoglycaemic controls.Methods In 12 overweight type 2 diabetes patients and nine controls with similar BMI (29.4 +/- 1 and 29.3 +/- 0.9 kg/m(2) respectively) in vivo mitochondrial function was determined by measuring phosphocreatine recovery half-time (PCr half-time) immediately after exercise, using phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy. IMCL content was determined by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging and insulin sensitivity was measured with a hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp.Results The PCr half-time was 45% longer in diabetic patients compared with controls (27.3 +/- 3.5 vs 18.7 +/- 0.9 s, p < 0.05), whereas IMCL content was similar (1.37 +/- 0.30 vs 1.25 +/- 0.22% of the water resonance), and insulin sensitivity was reduced in type 2 diabetes patients (26.0 +/- 2.2 vs 18.9 +/- 2.3 mumol min(-1) kg(-1), p < 0.05 [all mean +/- SEM]). PCr half-time correlated positively with fasting plasma glucose (r (2) = 0.42, p < 0.01) and HbA(1c) (r (2) = 0.48, p < 0.05) in diabetic patients.Conclusions/interpretation The finding that in vivo mitochondrial function is decreased in type 2 diabetes patients compared with controls whereas IMCL content is similar suggests that low mitochondrial function is more strongly associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes than a high IMCL content per se. Whether low mitochondrial function is a cause or consequence of the disease remains to be investigated.

“Furthermore, assessment of mitochondria function in vivo using non-invasive measurement of the phosphocreatine resynthesis rate after exercise corroborated these remarkable mitochondrial defects at the protein as well as at the transcriptional levels providing further evidence that muscle mitochondria oxidative capacity is impaired in patients with overt T2DM (Schrauwen-Hinderling et al., 2007).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
