Q

mechanism of glucose-dependent insulin secretion in B-cells (high glucose)

A
  1. small amounts of glucose are transported into the cell via GLUT 2 transporters
  2. glucose is phosphorylated by glucokinase (now it cannot leave the cell)
  3. Glucose undergoes glycolysis and produces ATP
  4. High concentration of ATP causes a swing in equilibrium in favor of ATP
  5. ATP bind K+ channel blocking inflow
  6. the cell depolarizes
  7. Voltage gated Ca channel is activated allowing influx of Ca
  8. High concentration of Ca activate exocytosis of insulin

Q

mechanism of glucose dependent insulin secretion in B-cells (low glucose)

A
  1. small amounts of glucose are transported into the cell via GLUT 2 transporters
  2. glucose is phosphorylated by glucokinase (now it cannot leave the cell)
  3. Glucose undergoes glycolysis and produces ATP
  4. Low concentration of ATP causes a swing in equilibrium in favor of ADP
  5. ADP bind K+ channel opening the channel allowing influx of Ca
  6. the cell hyper polarizes and stabilizes
  7. Voltage gated Ca channel is closed
  8. No exocytosis of insulin occurs at low Ca concentration

Q

Sulfonylurea drug interactions

A
  • drugs which may enhance the action of sulfonylureas and increase the risk of hypoglycemia (salicylates, phenylbutazone, sulfonamides, clofibrate_
  • drugs that have their own hypoglycemic effects which may be additive to the sulfonylurea (Alcohol: excessive acute intake, high dose salicylates)
  • drugs which cause hyperglycemia which in turn oppose the action of sulfonylureas and insulin therapy (Oral contraceptives, epinephrine, thiazide diuretics, corticosteroids, thyroid)

38
Q

strategies of GLP-1 treatment of T2DM

A

provide long-lasting GLP-1 analog
prevent degradation of endogenous GLP-1
Positive allosteric modulators for the GLP-1 receptor (allows the body to respond to lower concentrations of GLP-1, going in for approval soon)

39
