    Notes: Summary Islet blood flow was quantified in NIDDM rats either of the GK strain on after neonatal injection of STZ (n0-STZ), using the non-radioactive microsphere technique. In the basal state, there was a good correlation between plasma insulin level and islet blood flow, i.e. both were increased or decreased in comparison to those of control rats in GK and n0-STZ rats, respectively. The increased islet blood flow and plasma insulin levels observed in the GK rats were abolished by bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy. During a glucose challenge, whereas plasma insulin and islet blood flow were doubled in control rats, these parameters were not modified in the diabetic rats. These data demonstrate an alteration in the islet blood flow of diabetic rats during a glucose challenge which could participate in the abnormal glucose-induced insulin secretion previously described in these two models.

    Notes: Summary We investigated the importance of the level and the duration of glucose stimulation on the in vivo and in vitro insulin response to glucose in normal rats previously submitted to hyperglycaemia. Rats were made hyperglycaemic by a 48-h glucose infusion. Glucose-induced insulin secretion was investigated in vivo by a 20-min hyperglycaemic clamp and in vitro by the isolated perfused pancreas technique, 3 h after the end of the in vivo glucose infusion. In glucose-infused rats, as compared to controls, in vivo incremental plasma insulin values above baseline integrated over the 20-min hyperglycaemic clamp (ΔI) were five times higher during 8 mmol/l glucose clamp, only two times higher in 11 mmol/l glucose clamp and no different in 16.5 mmol/l. Compared to the controls, in vitro incremental plasma insulin concentration above baseline integrated over a 20-min period (ΔI) in glucose-infused rats was 16 times higher in response to 2.8 mmol/l glucose, two times higher in response to 5.5 mmol/l, similar in response to 8.3 mmol/l and significantly lower in response to 16.5 mmol/l. In conclusion, our data suggest that a 48-h hyperglycaemic period results in an increased response of the pancreatic beta cell to low glucose. The response is immediately maximal and can not be increased with higher glucose concentrations. This situation could explain the apparent minimal effect of high concentrations on in vitro insulin secretion in previously hyperglycaemic rats and may provide insights into the sequence of events leading to the impairment of beta-cell function in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus.
