Acute hyperglycemia alters the ability of the normal β-cell to sense and respond to glucose
Abstract
Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are associated with an impaired ability of the beta-cell to sense and respond to small changes in plasma glucose. The aim of this study was to establish whether acute hyperglycemia per se plays a role in inducing this defect in beta-cell response. Seven healthy volunteers with no family history of NIDDM were studied on two occasions during a 12-h oscillatory glucose infusion with a periodicity of 144 min. Once, low-dose glucose was infused at a mean rate of 6 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1) and amplitude 33% above and below the mean rate, and, once, high-dose glucose was infused at 12 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1) and amplitude 16% above and below the mean rate. Mean glucose levels were significantly higher during the high-dose compared with the low-dose glucose infusion [9.5 +/- 0.8 vs. 6.8 +/- 0.2 mM (P < 0.01)], resulting in increased mean insulin secretion rates [ISRs; 469.1 +/- 43.8 vs. 268.4 +/- 29 pmol/min (P < 0.001)] and mean insulin levels [213.6 +/- 46 vs. 67.9 +/- 10.9 pmol/l (P < 0.008)]. Spectral analysis evaluates the regularity of oscillations in glucose, insulin secretion, and insulin at a predetermined frequency. Spectral power for glucose, ISR, and insulin was reduced during the high-dose glucose infusion [11.8 +/- 1.4 to 7.0 +/- 1.6 (P < 0.02), 7.6 +/- 1.5 to 3.2 +/- 0.5 (P < 0.04), and 10.5 +/- 1.6 to 4.6 +/- 0.7 (P < 0.01), respectively]. In conclusion, short-term infusion of high-dose glucose to obtain glucose levels similar to those previously seen in IGT subjects results in reduced spectral power for glucose, ISR, and insulin. The reduction in spectral power previously observed for ISR in IGT or NIDDM subjects may be due partly to hyperglycemia.

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.
