Impaired glucose transport in skeletal muscle but normal GLUT-4 tissue distribution in glucose-infused rats

Abstract: This study was undertaken to determine if glucose toxicity in normal rats caused decreased whole body insulin-stimulated glucose disposal and in vivo impaired muscle glucose transport and, if so, whether it was mediated by changes in GLUT-4 content or tissue distribution. Rats were infused with 50% dextrose for 48 h after which they were clamped and injected with 2-deoxy-D-[3H]glucose. Hindlimb muscles were removed for measurement of uptake of radioactivity (glucose transport) and GLUT-4 levels in total, plasm… Show more

“…There was significant impairment of insulin-induced glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in isolated soleus muscle. This may be explicable on the basis of glucose toxicity since impaired muscle glucose uptake and oxidation has been previously documented in hyperglycemic states (19). Alternatively, it may represent an intrinsic defect in insulin action resulting from inhibition of the IGF-I effect in muscle.…”

“…This glucose toxicity form of insulin resistance can also be induced by prolonged glucose infusions that result in high levels of blood glucose and insulin (7,25,31) and by incubation of isolated muscles or fat cells with high concentrations of glucose and insulin (11,24,25,30). Glucose toxicity insulin resistance may also develop in type 1 diabetics with high blood glucose levels whose hyperglycemia is reversed by insulin therapy (47).…”

“…Fasting plasma free fatty acid levels were measured with Wako NEFA C kit (Wako Chemicals, Richmond, VA), and triglycerides were measured with the Infinity triglyceride reagent (Sigma-Aldrich). For analyzing glucose utilization by skeletal muscle, an intravenous injection of 1Ci of the non-metabolizable glucose analog 2-deoxy-D- [1][2][3] H]glucose (GE Healthcare) and an intraperitoneal injection of insulin (0.75 milliunits/kg of body weight) were administered to random-fed mice. The specific blood 2-deoxy-D- [1-3 H]glucose clearance was determined with 25-l blood samples collected from the tail vein obtained 1, 15, and 30 min after injection as previously reported (33).…”

“…These acquired and secondary factors further impair insulin action in diabetic individuals. For instance, chronic hyperglycemia per se promotes insulin resistance (2,3). A number of mechanisms have been proposed to explain hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance.…”
