Insulin response and FFA behavior have been evaluated during an IVGTT in 63 subjects of whom 18 were normal, 31 were obese (with varying degrees of carbohydrate tolerance) and 14 were mild non insulin-dependent diabetics. The extreme reduction of insulin secretion in the early phase (delta 0-15 min)
Assuming that the serum-to-saliva transfer of insulin reflects internalization and re-cycling of the hormone in the membrane-located binding sites of salivary epithelial cells and that these cells have in obesity a'marked decrease in insulin receptor content, it has been postulated that insulin
Blood sugar and IRI were followed for 24 hr in healthy patients, young and adult diabetics, and in subjects with apparently primary obesity on a standard, normal calorie diet. Morning and nocturnal insulin positivity peaks were noted in the normal subjects, though circadians variations in these
In order to obtain a dynamic picture of the way abnormal insulinemia, as a function of blood glucose, occurs in the morning in subjects with insulinoma, we have measured amended plasma insulin (IRI)/blood glucose (BG) ratio during the fasting period of 4 sleeping subjects with insulinoma. Healthy
