Multiscale modelling of insulin secretion during an intravenous glucose tolerance test.
Dysfunctional insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells plays a major role in the development of diabetes. The intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) is a widely used clinical test to assess β-cell function. The analysis of IVGTT data is conveniently performed using mathematical models, which need to be fairly simple to enable parameter identifiability (minimal models), but should at the sa...
متن کاملMP Modelling of Glucose-Insulin Interactions in the Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test
The Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test is an experimental procedure used to study the glucose-insulin endocrine regulatory system. An open problem is to construct a model representing simultaneously the entire regulative mechanism. In the past three decades, several models have appeared, but they have not escaped criticisms and drawbacks. In this paper, the authors apply the Metabolic P systems...
متن کاملAblation of capsaicin-sensitive afferent nerves affects insulin response during an intravenous glucose tolerance test.
We investigated the role of sensory nerves in glucose tolerance in conscious Wistar rats neonatally treated with neurotoxin capsaicin or vehicle. Intravenous glucose tolerance tests (IVGTT, 150, 300 and 450 mg in 30 min) were performed to measure glucose tolerance, and glucose, insulin and glucagon levels were measured. Higher glucose concentration resulted in a greater insulin response in both...
متن کاملTianeptine Enhances Insulin Secretion Throughout the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
Drugs that inhibit the uptake of serotonin at the synaptic level, such as doxepin, are able to counteract hyperinsulism-induced hypoglycemia. Thus, we postulated that tianeptine, a drug which facilitates the uptake of serotonin at both synaptic and platelet levels, might display an antidiabetogenic effect. We investigated the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) + placebo in 38 normal humans. A s...
متن کاملGlycogenesis and glucose oxidation during an intravenous glucose tolerance test in man.
The quantity of deuterated glucose customarily given in labelled IVGTTs (intravenous glucose tolerance tests) changes the isotopic composition of the subject's body water enough to be detected by mass spectrometric techniques. Glucose undergoing direct glycogenesis does not contribute label to the body water pool, and isotope incorporated into it must have come from glucose that has either been...
