Residual beta-cell function can be improved by other therapies. Cyclosporin (CyA) and nicotinamide (NA), alone or in combination, can preserve this function, as indicated by the parameters of metabolic control (insulin dose, HbA1C). After suspension of CyA, insulin requirement returns to control values, suggesting loss of residual beta-cell function. The effects induced by withdrawal of NA after 1 year are not known. For the first time, we studied 27 type 1 diabetes patients treated with NA for 12 months and then followed up for 1 year after discontinuance of NA. Another 25 patients treated with NA + CyA and 28 control patients were followed up similarly. Insulin requirement doubled 12 months after discontinuance of NA or NA + CyA, becoming identical to that of controls. As patients showed HbA1C values similar to control subjects, it is likely that beta-cell function deteriorated after discontinuance of therapy. As NA is safer than other agents and its effects are beneficial, longer studies are warranted to investigate NA in prolonged treatments since this compound is also being considered for prevention of type 1 diabetes.</p>","PeriodicalId":11111,"journal":{"name":"Diabete & metabolisme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18782570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are, however, several problems with these assumptions. Thus, definition of Type 2 diabetes is one of exclusion of other types (insulin-dependent, malnutrition-related, gestational and other rarer types) and inevitably contains a heterogeneous group of disorders the aetiology of which is largely unclear, and separation from the insulin-dependent type can be problematic. Diagnosis is also imprecise in asymptomatic subjects due to the lack of accurate diagnostic tools and lack of clear distinction of impaired glucose tolerance. An alternative to the oral glucose tolerance test is urgently needed. Epidemiological studies of Type 2 diabetes and its complications are also fraught with difficulties due to variability of the oral glucose tolerance test, potential problems in glucose measurement, heterogeneity, population selection and problems in international comparisons due to differing age ranges and life expectancy.

{"title":"[Insulin resistance: role in type 2 diabetes].","authors":"J Girard","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Type 2, non-insulin-dependent, diabetes is a disease of glucose homeostasis involving up to 5% of the adult population. The percentage of the population with glucose intolerance is even greater, 10%. These later patients are not diagnosed as \"diabetics\", but 50% of them have non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Globally, 10% of the adult population has or will have Type 2 diabetes, a major health care problem. Characteristically, in patients with Type 2 diabetes, pancreatic insulin secretion is deficient, liver glucose production is increased during the post-absorption period and peripheral glucose consumption, particularly in striated muscles, is decreased due to insulin resistance. There has been much progress in our understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms involved. When clinical manifestations have become apparent, the relative roles of defective insulin secretion and insulin resistance are difficult to distinguish. However, in persons with oral glucose intolerance or in persons with a high risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, these two mechanisms are more easily differentiated. High risk patients can be identified on the basis of our knowledge of genetic factors in Type 2 diabetes. The incidence of Type 2 diabetes is considerably increased in subjects with two diabetic parents. In addition to genetic factors, environmental factors also influence the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes, contributing to the multifactorial nature of Type 2 diabetes. In order to establish the relative importance of these different factors, it is useful to define the different stages with characteristic degrees of metabolic disorder, insulin secretion abnormalities and insulin secretion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":11111,"journal":{"name":"Diabete & metabolisme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18829197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metformin applied intraluminally had no significant effect on portal glycaemia after a glucose load, but lactate increased, whereas in vivo only a high Metformin dosage reduced portal glucose appearance significantly. Although high Metformin concentrations were found in gut biopsies, precise histological analysis in the isolated intestine revealed that it was absent from enterocytes; however the drug accumulated in villous lacteals. Intrarterially applied Metformin decreased glucose absorption in the isolated perfused ileo-jejunal segment. These data suggested that vascular Metformin boosted intestinal anaerobic glucose metabolism. Biochemical measurements performed on freshly isolated enterocytes showed that even high Metformin levels did not interfere with cell respiration or with Na+/K+ ATPase activity. Thus, our data agree with other recent reports, suggesting that even at nontherapeutic concentrations Metformin has no relevant inhibitory effect on intestinal glucose absorption. The data are discussed in the frame of previous divergent observations. The results suggest however that Metformin of vascular origin stimulates glucose consumption by the intestine, which then increases lactate output from the gut.</p>","PeriodicalId":11111,"journal":{"name":"Diabete & metabolisme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18715170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
