Plasma Glucose: DM/Metabolic Synd Flashcards
DM causes chronic what?
hyperglycemia (impaired glucose tolerance)
DM caused by what?
1) Inability of pancreas to secrete insulin
2) Inability of tissue to respond to insulin
Chronic DM results in what conditions?
Neuropathy
Vascular Dz
Infection
Type I DM is result of what?
immune-mediated destruction of β cells
Stages of development of Type I?
Genetic predisposition ->
Precipitating even (u/k) ->
Overt immuno abnormalities/normal insulin ->
Progressive insulin loss/Glucose normal ->
Overt DM/C-peptides ->
No C-peptides
Clinical presentation of Type I?
Hypergly induces:
polydipsia
polyuria (glucosuria)
Insulin deficiency induces:
polyphagia
Diabetic Ketoacidosis????

Ketone Bodies produced how?
Can be used for?
glucagon stim FA oxidation ->
excess FA oxid makes ketone bodies
fuel for brain during fasting state
Type II DM caused by?
Obesity/Inactivity
Genetics
Aging
Insulin resistance can result in? (4)
Type II
HTN
Dyslipidemia
Atherosclerosis
Type II results in what changes in insulin signaling?
Downregulates insulin receptors
Impairs post-receptor signaling
Type II insulin resistance occurs mainly where?
Is result of?
muscles
↓ insulin receptor content -> ↓ tyrosine kinase activity
IRS1/2 (insulin receptor substrate) defects -> ↓ glucose transport
Tissue resistance to insulin results in?
↑ FA storage
