Q

insulin action

A

up-regulates GLUT-4 transporters
-muscle and adipose tissue

promotes formation of glycogen in liver and muscle

inhibits glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis

decreased FA and ketoacid concentration in blood

stimulates fat deposition and inhibits lipolysis

promotes K uptake into cells

17
Q

DM I

A

insulin-dependent - destruction of beta cells
increased blood glucose, FA, ketoacids, AA
increased ketoacids
metabolic acidosis (diabetic ketoacidosis)
polyuria
hyperkalemia

18
Q

DM I and polyuria

A

glucose is an osmotic diuretic

19
Q

DM II

A

insulin-independent - associated with obesity
insulin resistance
normal insulin levels, no response
blood glucose elevated fed and fasting states
Tx: caloric restriction, weight reduction, sulfonylurea drugs and biguanide drugs

20
Q

biguanide drugs

A

upregulate receptors for insulin

Tx for type II DM

21
Q

glucagon secretion

A

stimulated by low blood glucose
inhibited by insulin
stimulated by protein ingestion (Arg, Ala)
stimulated by fasting and exercise
stimulated by alpha-adrenergic stimulation

22
Q

action of somatostatin

A

from delta cells
inhibit secretion of insulin and glucagon

modulate response of insulin and glucagon

23
Q

type I DM

A

immune mediated
beta cell destruction

insulin dependent
ketoacidosis**

24
Q

type II DM

A

insulin resistance

overweight, usually no ketoacidosis

25
gestational DM
during pregnancy
26
diabeticogenetic effect
acromegaly and hypercortisolism
27
family Hx
more with type II DM
28
obesity
BMI > 30 kg / m~2
29
pre-diabetic
fasting 100-126 | 2 hour oral glucose tolerance 140-200
30
criteria for diabetes Dx
fasting oral glucose tolerance random glucose hemoglobin A1c
31
incretin effect
oral glucose - stimulates GLP-1 -potentiates insulin release from beta cells no GLP-1 with IV
32
glucagon and incretins
glucagon, GLP-1, GLP-2 from same gene
33
amylin
also from beta cells suppress appetite inhibit gastric emptying
34
type 2 diabetics
reduced incretin effect can use GLP-1 agonists
35
fruity odor on breath
indicative of ketones
36
type 1 DM
cell mediated autoimmune T cell mediated** predictable with islet autoantibodies
37
pre-diabetes
beta cell mass decreases | after autoantibodies present
38
genes associated with type I DM
HLA also INS, PTPN22 insulin in thymus - protective - recognize as self
39
MHC
``` class II - DP DQ DR class I - B C A ```
40
major islet autoantigens
ZnT8 IA-2 GAA mIAA
41
diabetic ketoacidosis
C peptide of zero
42
common to DM I and DM II
nonenzymatic glycosylation of proteins
