Abstract

Rationale: Low serum testosterone is commonly observed in men with type 2 diabetes (T2 DM), but the neuroendocrine pathophysiology remains to be elucidated. Objectives: The hypothalamic neuropeptide kisspeptin integrates metabolic signals with the reproductive axis in animal models. We hypothesized that administration of exogenous kisspeptin‐10 will restore luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone secretion in hypotestosteronaemic men with T2 DM. Participants: Five hypotestosteronaemic men with T2 DM (age 33·6 ± 3 years, BMI 40·6 ± 6·3, total testosterone 8·5 ± 1·0 nmol/l, LH 4·7 ± 0·7 IU/l, HbA 1c 7·4±2%, duration of diabetes <5 years) and seven age‐matched healthy men. Experiment 1: Mean LH increased in response to intravenous administration of kisspeptin‐10 (0·3 mcg/kg bolus) both in healthy men (5·5 ± 0·8 to 13·9 ± 1·7 IU/l P < 0·001) and in men with T2 DM (4·7 ± 0·7 to 10·7 ± 1·2 IU/l P = 0·02) with comparable Δ LH (P = 0·18). Experiment 2: Baseline 10‐min serum sampling for LH and hourly testosterone measurements were performed in four T2 DM men over 12 h. An intravenous infusion of kisspeptin‐10 (4 mcg/kg/h) was administered for 11 h, 5 days later. There were increases in LH (3·9 ± 0·1 IU/l to 20·7 ± 1·1 IU/l P = 0·03) and testosterone (8·5 ± 1·0 to 11·4 ± 0·9 nmol/l, P = 0·002). LH pulse frequency increased from 0·6 ± 0·1 to 0·9 ± 0 pulses/h (P = 0·05) and pulsatile component of LH secretion from 32·1 ± 8·0 IU/l to 140·2 ± 23·0 IU/l (P = 0·007). Conclusions: Kisspeptin‐10 administration increased LH pulse frequency and LH secretion in hypotestosteronaemic men with T2 DM in this proof‐of‐concept study, with associated increases in serum testosterone. These data suggest a potential novel therapeutic role for kisspeptin agonists in enhancing endogenous testosterone secretion in men with T2 DM and central hypogonadism.

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.
