Diabetes Flashcards
A disorder of pancreatic dysfunction and beta cell destruction
DM 1
Beta cell destruction leading to absolute insulin deficiency?
Which type
Type 1
Immune mediated diabetes is most common form of which diabetes
Type 1
Chronic and metabolic disease
Defects in pancreatic insulin secretion and insulin resistance in target tissues
Persistent hyperglycemia
Type 2
Obesity
Poor diet
Lack of regular exercise
Risks for what
Type 2
Suboptimal response of insulin sensitive tissues to insulin
Which diabetes
Type 2
Three insulin sensitive tissues
Liver
Adipose tissue
Muscle
LAM
GLP1 is a what
Incretin
What two conditions have decreased beta cell responsiveness to GLP1
Prediabetes
Type 2
What should GLP1 do to blood glucose?
Decrease it
Adipokines are cytokines produced by what type of tissue
Adipose tissue
Adipokines are increased or decreased in obesity?
Increased
There are increased or decreased levels of leptin in obesity
Increased
Leptin resistance
Free fatty acids are increased or decreased in obesity
Increased
Free fatty acids lead to increased or decreased tissue responses to insulin
Decreased
Decreased insulin-induced activity of what organelle leads to insulin resistance
Mitochondria
A serious complication related to a deficiency of insulin and an increase in the levels of insulin counterregulatory hormones
DKA
Catecholamines
Cortisol
Glucagon
Growth hormone are four what
Insulin counterregulatory hormones
List the four insulin counterregulatory hormones
CCGG
Catecholamines
Cortisol
Glucagon
Growth hormone
