    Notes: Summary We examined whether tolbutamide has any acute or short-term effects on insulin action in Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes. A euglycaemic glucose clamp was performed in seven Type 1 diabetic patients without clinical insulin resistance by infusing glucose at a constant rate of 0.01 mmol·kg-1·min-1 for 3 h together with a simultaneous insulin infusion using an ‘artificial pancreas’. The insulin infusion rate required to maintain blood glucose at 6.7 mmol/l at a set low glucose infusion rate provides an index of insulin action in vivo. The euglycaemic clamp was performed on 3 separate days in the same patient: (1) in the basal state; (2) during simultaneous intravenous tolbutamide infusion of 0.5 g/h, and (3) after treatment with 2.5 g tolbutamide/day for 6 days in addition to insulin. The insulin infusion rate needed to maintain the set blood glucose level did not differ significantly between the three experimental conditions (1.2±0.2 versus 1.3±0.3 versus 1.2±0.3 U/h). Plasma glucagon, growth hormone, non-esterified fatty acid and glycerol levels did not differ between control or sulphonylurea treatment studies. The results suggest that tolbutamide does not exert any acute or short-term effects on insulin action in vivo in Type 1 diabetes. Our results do not provide support for the idea that this agent is a clinically useful adjunct to insulin in such patients.

    Pregnancy-associated changes in the endocrine pancreas of normoglycaemic streptozotocin-treated Wistar rats (1985)

    Notes: Summary The effect of pregnancy on pancreatic insulin content and relative B-cell volume has been studied in normoglycaemic Wistar rats treated with streptozotocin 14 days before mating. A single intravenous injection of streptozotocin (30 mg/kg body weight) caused a significant reduction of pancreatic insulin content and B-cell volume. The islet insulin content was 60% of control values. However, pregnancy-associated adaptation was preserved in these streptozotocin-treated animals. Plasma insulin levels, pancreatic insulin and B-cell volume were significantly enhanced compared with non-pregnant rats investigated on the same date. The incorporation of [3H]-thymidine into islets from pregnant rats (day 10.5) was higher than that in islets isolated from non-pregnant animals. After delivery insulin content and B-cell volume returned to pre-pregnant values. Also during a longer period after streptozotocin treatment (156 days), no measurable enhancement of B-cell volume and pancreatic insulin content was observed indicating the unresponsiveness of residual B cells to compensate spontaneously for the loss despite persisting normoglycaemia.
