Effects of free fatty acids on hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in conscious dogs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of high levels of free fatty acids (FFA) and/or hyperglycemia on hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Intralipid was infused peripherally in 18-h-fasted conscious dogs maintained on a pancreatic clamp in the presence (FFA + HG) or absence (FFA + EuG) of hyperglycemia. In the control studies, Intralipid was not infused, and euglycemia (EuG) or hyperglycemia (HG) was maintained. Insulin and glucagon were clamped at basal levels in all four groups. The arterial blood glucose level increased by 50% in the HG and FFA + HG groups. It did not change in the EuG and FFA + EuG groups. Arterial plasma FFA increased by approximately 140% in the FFA + EuG and FFA + HG groups but did not change significantly either in the EuG or HG groups. Arterial glycerol levels increased by approximately 150% in both groups. Overall (3-h) net hepatic glycogenolysis was 196 +/- 26 mg/kg in the EuG group. It decreased by 96 +/- 20, 82 +/- 16, and 177 +/- 22 mg/kg in the HG, FFA + EuG, and FFA + HG groups, respectively. Overall (3-h) hepatic gluconeogenic flux was 128 +/- 22 mg/kg in the EuG group, but it was suppressed by 30 +/- 9 mg/kg in response to hyperglycemia. It was increased by 59 +/- 12 and 56 +/- 10 mg/kg in the FFA + EuG and FFA + HG groups, respectively. In conclusion, an increase in plasma FFA and glycerol significantly inhibited hepatic glycogenolysis and markedly stimulated hepatic gluconeogenesis.

The Inhibitory Effects of Insulin on Hepatic Glucose Production Are Both Direct and Indirect
Previous studies suggest that insulin can inhibit hepatic glucose production by both direct and indirect actions. The indirect effects include inhibition of glucagon secretion, reduction in plasma nonesterified fatty acid levels, reduction of the amount of gluconeogenic precursor supplied to the liver, and change in neural input to the liver. There is a controversy concerning the fact that the ...
متن کاملObesity and type 2 diabetes impair insulin-induced suppression of glycogenolysis as well as gluconeogenesis.
To determine whether the hepatic insulin resistance of obesity and type 2 diabetes is due to impaired insulin-induced suppression of glycogenolysis as well as gluconeogenesis, 10 lean nondiabetic, 10 obese nondiabetic, and 11 obese type 2 diabetic subjects were studied after an overnight fast and during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. Gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis were measured using ...
متن کاملEffects of free fatty acids per se on glucose production, gluconeogenesis, and glycogenolysis.
Insulin-independent effects of a physiological increase in free fatty acid (FFA) levels on fasting glucose production, gluconeogenesis, and glycogenolysis were assessed by administering [6,6-(2)H(2)]-glucose and deuteriated water ((2)H(2)O) in 12 type 1 diabetic patients, during 6-h infusions of either saline or a lipid emulsion. Insulin was either fully replaced (euglycemic group, n = 6), or u...

We assessed basal glucose metabolism in 16 female nonpregnant (NP) and 16 late-pregnant (P) conscious, 18-h-fasted dogs that had catheters inserted into the hepatic and portal veins and femoral artery approximately 17 days before the experiment. Pregnancy resulted in lower arterial plasma insulin (11 +/- 1 and 4 +/- 1 microU/ml in NP and P, respectively, P < 0.05), but plasma glucose (5.9 +/- 0...
