*Normal fasting blood glucose ?
|
70-110
|
|
Glucose > 110 mg/dL
|
stimulates insulin secretion
prevents hyperglycemia |
|
Glucose > 110 mg/dL
|
stimulates insulin secretion
prevents hyperglycemia |
|
Glucose < 70 mg/dL
|
stimulates glucagon secretion
prevents hypoglycemia |
|
Glucose < 70 mg/dL
|
stimulates glucagon secretion
prevents hypoglycemia |
|
Insulin
|
allows glucose to enter cells
allows glucose to enter liver inhibits release of liver glycogen inhibits fat breakdown |
|
Amylin
|
slows gastric emptying
promotes satiety inhibits secretion of glucagon (decreases hepatic glucose output) reduces total insulin demand |
|
Glucagon
|
responds to
hypoglycemia & stress promotes glucose production in liver & raises blood glucose inhibited post meals excessive in insulin deficiency |
|
Incretins (GIP, GLP-1)
|
stimulates insulin release
reduces glucagon production delays gastric emptying improves insulin sensitivity may increase # of new pancreatic beta cells |
|
Glycogenolysis
|
makes glucose from protein & fat
|
|
Gluconeogenesis
|
shuts down after meal
stores energy |
|
Avaliable units of insulin
|
U-40 units per mL (not in U.S.)
U-100 100 units per mL U-500 500 units per mL |
