what is role of amylin in body?

A

inhibit glucagon release
increase satiety
slow gastric emptying

31

what is drug that can act as amylin in diabetes rx?

A

pramlinitide

32
Q

what is MOA of pramlinitide?

A

inhibit glucagon release

increase satiety and slow gastric emptying

33

A

inhibit the SGLT2 transporter in the PCT of the kidney so glucose secreted

37
Q

what is insulin therapy effect on liver?

A

increase glucose storage as glycogen

38
Q

what is insulin therapy effect on muscle?

A

increase glycogen and protein synthesis

39
Q

what is insulin therapy effect on fat??

A

increase TG storage

40

A

alpha and beta chain

41
Q

what are the two modified human insulins?

A

regular insulin
and
NPH insulin

42
Q

regular insulin has what duration effect?

A

short acting insulin

43
Q

NPH insulin has what duration effect?

A

intermediate acting insulin

44
Q

short acting normal insulin lasts about how many hours?

A

6-8

45
Q

intermediate acting NPH insulin lasts about how long?

A

12-20 hours

46
Q

name the three insulin analogues that are rapid acting?

A

aspart
glulisine
lispro

47
Q

how quickly is peak effect of aspart, glulisine and lispro?

A

1 hr after administration

48
Q

what is mnemonic to remember the rapid acting insulins?

A

no LisproAaspartGlulisine

49
Q

name the two long acting insulins

A

detemir and glargine

50
Q

why are rapid acting insulins able to act so fast?

A

because they are monomers and wuickly absorbed

51
Q

what makes long acting insulins act longer?

A

they are hexamers and have to be broken down to monomers to act

52
Q

how long to long acting insulins act?

A

no real peak time…system for say 24 hrs

Q

when is peak of NPH?

A

4-10 hrs

immune mediated with loss of fat at insulin injxn sites…this is very uncommon
