RESUMO
Transgenic mice that overexpressed IGFBP-1 are hyperinsulinemic in the first week of life and gradually develop fasting hyperglycemia. In adult transgenic mice, the hypoglycemic response to IGF-I but not insulin or des (1-3) IGF-I was attenuated (P < 0.05) compared with wild-type mice. Furthermore, in isolated adipocytes from transgenic mice, the stimulatory effect of IGF-I but not insulin on 2-deoxy-[3H]-glucose uptake was reduced (P < 0.02). In contrast, in isolated soleus muscle, the effects of both IGF-I and insulin on 2-deoxy-3H-glucose uptake and on [3H]-glucose incorporation into glycogen were significantly reduced compared to wild-type mice. The decline in specific activity of the 2-deoxy-3H-glucose, a measure of glucose appearance in the circulation, was more marked in transgenic animals (P < 0.05). In addition, tissue uptake of glucose was significantly higher in diaphragm, heart, intestine, liver, soleus muscle, and adipose tissue from fasting transgenic mice. Plasma concentrations of alanine, lysine, and methionine were also elevated in transgenic mice. These data suggest that overexpression of IGFBP-1 attenuates the hypoglycemic effect of endogenous IGF-I, which is initially compensated for by enhanced pancreatic insulin production. However, in adult mice pancreatic insulin content is reduced, insulin resistance is demonstrable in skeletal muscle and fasting hyperglycemia develops.
