In vivo insulin action in adrenodemedullated rats after voluntary running
2004
Abstract The purpose of this study was to estimate the influence of epinephrine on in vivo insulin sensitivity and responsiveness after voluntary running. Wistar rats that had previously undergone adrenodemedullation or sham-operation were kept in a sedentary state or trained over a 4 week period. An euglycemic insulin clamp study was performed on adrenodemedullated sedentary rats (ADMX), adrenodemedullated voluntary running rats (ADMX-T), sham-operated voluntary running rats (SHAM-T), and control rats (C) at 18 h after the last bout of exercise. The insulin infusion rate was 3.0, 6.0, and 303.0 mU/(kg min), respectively. The blood glucose concentration was maintained constant at basal levels. Metabolic clearance rate of glucose (MCR) was calculated as an index of whole-body insulin action. In the presence of physiological hyperinsulinemia (an insulin infusion rate of 6.0 mU/(kg min)), MCR (ml/(kg min)) was significantly higher in ADMX-T rats (31.2±2.0) than in ADMX rats (19.8±0.8, P P P P
