Effect of the antilipolytic nicotinic acid analogue acipimox on whole-body and skeletal muscle glucose metabolism in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
Open accessAbstract
Increased nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) levels may be important in causing insulin resistance in skeletal muscles in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The acute effect of the antilipolytic nicotinic acid analogue Acipimox (2 X 250 mg) on basal and insulin-stimulated (3 h, 40 mU/m2 per min) glucose metabolism was therefore studied in 12 patients with NIDDM. Whole-body glucose metabolism was assessed using [3-3H]glucose and indirect calorimetry. Biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis muscle during basal and insulin-stimulated steady-state periods. Acipimox reduced NEFA in the basal state and during insulin stimulation. Lipid oxidation was inhibited by Acipimox in all patients in the basal state (20 +/- 2 vs. 33 +/- 3 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01) and during insulin infusion (8 +/- 2 vs. 17 +/- 2 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01). Acipimox increased the insulin-stimulated glucose disposal rate (369 +/- 49 vs. 262 +/- 31 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01), whereas the glucose disposal rate was unaffected by Acipimox in the basal state. Acipimox increased glucose oxidation in the basal state (76 +/- 4 vs. 50 +/- 4 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01). During insulin infusion Acipimox increased both glucose oxidation (121 +/- 7 vs. 95 +/- 4 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01) and nonoxidative glucose disposal (248 +/- 47 vs. 167 +/- 29 mg/m2 per min, P less than 0.01). Acipimox enhanced basal and insulin-stimulated muscle fractional glycogen synthase activities (32 +/- 2 vs. 25 +/- 3%, P less than 0.05, and 50 +/- 5 vs. 41 +/- 4%, P less than 0.05). Activities of muscle pyruvate dehydrogenase and phosphofructokinase were unaffected by Acipimox. In conclusion, Acipimox acutely improved insulin action in patients with NIDDM by increasing both glucose oxidation and nonoxidative glucose disposal. This supports the hypothesis that elevated NEFA concentrations may be important for the insulin resistance in NIDDM. The mechanism responsible for the increased insulin-stimulated nonoxidative glucose disposal may be a stimulatory effect of Acipimox on glycogen synthase activity in skeletal muscles.

In the citing paper
“Conversely, reduction of plasma FFA concentration in insulin resistant individuals, for example, type 2 diabetic subjects, augments insulin-stimulated glucose disposal in skeletal muscle [69–72], and the improvement in insulin sensitivity is closely associated with a reduction in intramyocellular FACoA concentration [69].”

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.
