RESUMO
To compare the metabolic effects of elevated plasma concentrations of IGF-I and insulin, overnight-fasted normal subjects were studied twice, once receiving IGF-I and once insulin at doses that resulted in identical increases in glucose uptake during 8-h euglycemic clamping. Recombinant human IGF-I or insulin were infused in one group at high doses (30 micrograms/kg per h IGF-I or 0.23 nmol/kg per h insulin) and in another group at low doses (5 micrograms/kg per h IGF-I or 0.04 nmol/kg per h insulin). Glucose rate of disappearance (measured by [6,6-D2]-glucose infusions) increased from baseline by 239 +/- 16% during high dose IGF-I vs 197 +/- 18% during insulin (P = 0.021 vs IGF-I). Hepatic glucose production decreased by 37 +/- 6% during high dose IGF-I vs 89 +/- 13% during insulin (P = 0.0028 vs IGF-I). IGF-I suppressed whole body leucine flux ([1-13C]-leucine infusion technique) more than insulin (42 +/- 4 vs 32 +/- 3% during high doses, P = 0.0082). Leucine oxidation rate decreased during high dose IGF-I more than during insulin (55 +/- 4 vs 32 +/- 6%, P = 0.0001). The decreases of plasma concentrations of free fatty acids, acetoacetate, and beta-hydroxybutyrate after 8 h of IGF-I and insulin administration were similar. Plasma C-peptide levels decreased by 57 +/- 4% during high doses of IGF-I vs 36 +/- 6% during insulin (P = 0.005 vs IGF-I). The present data demonstrate that, compared to insulin, an acute increase in plasma IGF-I levels results in preferential enhancement of peripheral glucose utilization, diminished suppression of hepatic glucose production, augmented decrease of whole body protein breakdown (leucine flux), and of irreversible leucine catabolism but in similar antilipolytic effects. The data suggest that insulin-like effects of IGF-I in humans are mediated in part via IGF-I receptors and in part via insulin receptors.
