Effects of Diet-Induced Moderate Weight Reduction on Intrahepatic and Intramyocellular Triglycerides and Glucose Metabolism in Obese Subjects

Abstract: Our results suggest that moderate weight reduction in obese subjects decreased IHL and augmented splanchnic glucose uptake. This mechanism is at least in part involved in improvement of glucose metabolism by moderate weight reduction in obese subjects.

“…In agreement with these findings, one randomized controlled trial and a recent meta-analysis (17,29) showed significant improvements in fasting glucose and total cholesterol in T2DM patients under low-carbohydrate diets. Interestingly, the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with combined T2DM and obesity has been reported as 100% (30).…”

“…Moreover, weight loss of as little as 6%-8% has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, and intra-abdominal and hepatic steatosis. 3,9,10 Data specific to NASH subjects is limited to small trials with incomplete histologic follow-up. A pilot trial of 15 subjects treated for 12 months with a 1,400 calorie/day diet consisting of 40%-45% carbohydrate, 35%-40% fat, and 15%-20% protein showed that a weight loss of 7% improved the total NASH score and steatosis.…”

“…A primed, continuous infusion of [6,6-2 H2]glucose (priming dose, 22 μmol/kg; infusion rate, 0.22 μmol/kg/min) was started and continued until the end of the study. After 3.5 hours of tracer infusion, subjects ingested a liquid meal (containing 46 g glucose mixed with 0.9 g [U- 13 C]glucose, 9 g fat, and 9 g protein), which was provided in 7 equally divided aliquots given every 5 minutes over a 30-minute period. Blood samples were obtained immediately before starting the glucose tracer infusion, every 10 minutes for 30 minutes just before starting the meal ingestion, and then every 15 minutes for the first hour and every 20 minutes for the subsequent 5 hours after starting the meal, to determine plasma substrate and hormone concentrations as well as glucose TTRs.…”
