thinking hemochromatosis
type 1 vs type 2 dm
type 1 (10%)
- onset < 20 yrs; not obese, absolute insulin def; antibody +; DKA +
- 50% concordance int wins; HLA-D linked
- autoimmune disease
- Islet cells = insulitis early: precides clinical disease; marked atrophy & fibrosis; B cell depletion

type 2 (90%)
- onset > 30 yrs; obese; normal or increased insulin; antibody
- 90-100% concordance in twins; no HLA association
- insulin R and relative insulin def
- ISlet cells = focal atrophy and amyloid deposits; mild B cell depletion

group of 20 asymptoatmic individuals with fam history of type 1 undergo screeening tests; all are + for GAD antibody and nearly all have + HLA DR3 or HLA DR4 alleles and glucose levels are normale. what islet abnormaltiies would most likely be found on pancreatic biopsy
insulitis: WBC's in islet inflamed
52 yo male with type 2 presents to clinic on oral diabetes meds; blood glucose values high every morning upon awaking; much of this elevation in fasting blood glucoses is related to insulin R in
liver
factors responsible for normal glucose tolerance
insulin secretion

tissue glucose uptake
- peripheral : primarily muscle
- splanchnic: liver & gut

suppression of heptic glucosse production
- decreased FFA's
- decreased glucagon

incretin effect
- GLP-1 and GIP secretion with oral glucose load
incretin effect
release of GLP-1 and GIP rom small intestin in response to oral nutrient intake
- no incretin response to IV nutrients

GLP-1 & GIP
- delay gastric emptying
- stimulate insulin secetion and inhibit glucagon release: glucose dependent resonse; asglucose falls so does effect on insulin & glucagon secretion
- may promote satiety

in type 2, GLP-1 secretion and GIP action are reduced
metabolic staging of type 2
obesity contributtes to insulin resistance
hyperinsulinemia
impaired glucose tolerance
B- cell defect contributes to decreased insulin secretion
early diabetes
B cell failure
late diabetes
pathogenesis of type 2
genetic predisposition

insulin resistance
- muscle, liver & adipocytes

insufficient insulin seccreion

abnormal splanchnic glucose uptake
genetics of type 2
majority fo pts with type 2 have genetic predisposition
- up to 40% risk of type 2 in first degress relatives

insulin R common in normal, glucose tolerant first degree relatives

most cases not explained by single gene model
- multiple candidate gnes in combo most likely

disproportionately affects minorities

no HLA association
insulin resistance
precedes onset of clinical type 2
seen even in lean invidiuals with type 2
present at all concentattion of insulin
IR in tpe 2 states
basal state: liver is major site of IR
- associated with an overproduction of glucosse

insulin stimulated state (after meals)
- decreased muscle glucose uptake
- impared suppression of hepatic glucose production

IR involves post Receptor impairment of insulin action
post Rimpairment of insulin action
abnormal insulin R tyrosin kinase activity
- impaired phosphorylation of downstream proteins

insulin R substrate (IRS) defects
- impaired GLUT4 translocation 7 function : fed state
- increased hepatic glucose production: fasting state
clinical components of insulin resistnace syndrome
hyperglycemia

lipid abnormaltiies

visceral fat accumulation (around organs)

HTN

coronary artery disease: overlaps with type 2
lipid abnormalities n IRS
eleavted TG's
depressed HDL-C
small dense LDL
insulin secretion & action in DM2
control: normal glucose, insulin, glucose uptake

obese, glucose intolerant: IGT, elevated insulin, decreased glucose uptake
- evidence of IR

obese, DM, high insulin: DM level glucoses, elevated insulin, decreased glucose uptake
- IR and mild beta cell dysfunction/loss

obese, DM, low insulin: DM level glucose, low insulin, low glucose uptake
- IR and severe beta cell dysfunction/loss
potential mechanisms for insulin def in type 2
reduced B cel mass
glcuose toxicity
islet amyoid
genetics
lipotoxicity: acute rise in FFA's augments insulin secretion;n chronic elevations in FFA's with type 2 inhibit insulin secretion
decreased incerrtin effect
cytokines/inflammation
pathophys of type 2 insulin secertion
up regulaion of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) - decrease ATP production - decrease insulin secretion
splanchnic glucose uptake
most profound uptake issue is in muscle

total splanchnicglucose uptkae in DM2 similar to control

BUT, with profound hyperglycemia, splanchnic glucose uptake should increase to counter this
- does not happen in DM2
15 yo female presents to ER with 3 days of nausea/vomiting; 2 months of wt loss, polyuria/dipsia; blood glucose 400 and serum bicarb is 8 ; what is most likely expanation fo rpts clniical presentation?
she has new dx of type 1

DKA: lowbicarb makes acidotic
acute complicataions of diabetes
hyperglycemia

diabetic ketoacidosis
hyperosmolar nonketotic states
DKA components
hyperglycemia

ketosis: breakdown of fat ofr energy

met acid
DKA cause
relative or absolute insulin def
- infection
- omission or inadequate insulin
- new onset typee 1
- other severe sress: heart attack, stroe

type 2 only rarely associated with DKA
DKA pathogenesis
alterations in met: carb, protein, lipds

lack of effective insulin

elevated counter regulatory hormones
- glucagon & cats
- eleavte glucose & induce lipolysis; lipolysis source of ketones

diabetic hyperosmolar states
poorly controled type 2
- glucose impermeable solute
- osmotic diuresis from glycosuria
= decreases ICF & ECF water
= fall in GFR leads to high glucose levels (>1000 mg/dl)
= older individuals have higher renale thresholds for glucose
is insulin produced in diabetic hyperosmolar states
yes
- relative nsulin def
- insulin resistance high
is there ketoacidosis in diabetic hyperosmolar states
