Comparison of normal glucose patterns to patient with diabetes (probably type 1).
Direct Effects of Insulin • Glucose metabolism • Lipoprotein metabolism • Ketone metabolism • Protein metabolism
Insulin Action: Definitions Insulin Sensitivity • Ability of insulin to lower circulating glucose concentrations • Insulin Resistance • Condition of low insulin sensitivity
Insulin Amylin 600 400 200 0 Insulin and Amylin Co-secreted • Meal • Meal • Meal 30 25 Plasma amylin (pM) Without Diabetes n = 6 Plasma insulin (pM) 20 15 10 5 7 am 12 noon 5 pm Midnight Time Koda et al, Diabetes. 1995; 44 (s1): 23BA. Data on file. (Fineman)
Amylin • Secreted by pancreatic beta-cells • An anorectic hormone • Works on the brain to stimulate the feeling of satiety. • This results in decreased G.I. motility, slowed carbohydrate absorption, and decreased appetite.
GLP-1 • “Incretin” hormone secreted by jejunal and ileal L cells in response to a meal • Stimulates insulin secretion • Decreases glucagon secretion • Slows gastric emptying • Reduces fuel intake (increases satiety) • Improves insulin sensitivity • Increases b-cell mass and improves b-cell function (animal studies)
GLP-1 release following meal:comparison of control, T2DM & IGT
Diabetes is a Multi-Hormonal Disease • Pancreatic hormones • Insulin (b-cell) • Glucagon (a-cell) • Amylin (b-cell) • Intestinal Hormones (Incretins) • GLP-1 (L-cells) • GIP (K-cells)
Type 1 Diabetes: Pathophysiology • Impaired insulin secretion • Absolute insulin deficiency
T1DM • Typically autoimmune (~90%) • Beta-cells destroyed by multiple antibodies. • Can occur at any age (but more in kids) • Fast progression (the older the slower) • Related to ketones @ • Urine ketones • Ketoacidosis • Weight loss, N&V, lethargy
Ketogenesis • Normal physiological responses to carbohydrate shortages cause the liver to increase the production of ketone bodies from the acetyl-CoA generated from fatty acid oxidation. • Allows the heart and skeletal muscles primarily to use ketone bodies for energy, thereby preserving the limited glucose for use by the brain
Honeymooning The ability of the failing b-cells to become hyper-productive and compensate for failing insulin response.
T2DMDiagnosis characteristics • Insidious • Obesity (almost always), or weight gain • Related to other IRS signs • Hyperlipidemia, acanthosis nigricans • Older (↑Obesity = ↓Age; fatter = younger) • Ethnic links • Family history of T2DM • No ketones
Acanthosis Nigricans Hyperpigmented, velvety patches of skin in axillary regions and neck (typically).
Type 2 Diabetes: Pathophysiology • Impaired insulin secretion • Absolute or relative insulin deficiency • Impaired insulin action (sensitivity) • Insulin resistance
Dual Metabolic Abnormalities in Type 2 Diabetes Insulin Resistance Insulin Deficiency Decreased Glucose Uptake Decreased Insulin Secretion Unrestrained Lipolysis Excessive Hepatic Glucose Output

Idiopathic type 1 diabetes • Also known as “Flatbush diabetes” • African American and Asian men (18-25) • Fluctuating insulin secretion • No antibodies • Many honeymoons
LADA • Latent autoimmune diabetes of adulthood • Like type 1 but diagnosed after age 25. • ~20% of those with diagnosis of T2 may actually have LADA. • Slower onset than type 1 dm. • Positive antibodies. • Low or no c-peptide • No family history
MODY • Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young • A collection of many (at least 6) inherited diseases affecting insulin secretion. • Dominant inheritance characteristics • Normal insulin sensitivity • Impaired insulin secretion (but still some). • Diagnosis confirmed by genetic testing.
Pancreatic Diabetes • Results from a failure of the pancreas as a whole. • May be secondary to ETOH abuse, trauma, repeat pancreatitis. • Exocrine pancreas generally fails before endocrine pancreas. • Will need pancreatic enzyme replacement as well as insulin.
Gestational diabetes • Any glucose intolerance first diagnosed during pregnancy • Some definitions require return to normal following end of pregnancy. • Closely related to T2DM • Treat only with insulin • Some data support the use of SUs & metformin.
For every 1% point of increase in A1c add 35mg/dl of glucose.
