| Abstract | Insulin resistance of diaphragms of ob/ob mice has been repeatedly demonstrated previously both in vitro and in vivo. In the present study, transport and metabolism of glucose with and without insulin stimulation were compared in a skeletal muscle more likely than diaphragm or heart to be representative of the overall striated muscle mass, i.e. isolated soleus muscle. Compared with soleus muscle from lean controls, unstimulated lactate release in the presence of exogenous glucose was depressed from 16.2 to 12.3 nmol/60 min per mg wet wt in soleus from ob/ob mutants; glycolysis was decreased from 6.6 to 3.7 and [14C]glucose oxidation to 14CO2 from 0.90 to 0.33 nmol glucose/60 min per mg wet wt. Uptake of 2-deoxyglucose (2-DOG), both with and without insulin, was very much less for soleus from ob/ob than from lean mice, at 2-DOG concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 mM, and in mice of 6-15 wk. When 2-DOG concentration was 1 mM, its basal uptake was 0.53 nmol/30 min per mg wet wt for soleus of ob/ob as against 0.96 for soleus of lean mice. The absolute increment due to 1 mU/ml insulin was 0.49 in muscle of ob/ob as against 1.21 in that of lean mice. When the resistance to insulin action was decreased by pretreatment in vivo by either streptozotocin injection or fasting, the decreased basal 2-DOG uptake of subsequently isolated soleus muscle was not improved. Inhibition of endogenous oxidation of fatty acids by 2-bromostearate, while greatly increasing 14CO2 production from [14C]glucose, did not affect basal [5-3H]glucose metabolism or 2-DOG uptake. It is suggested that transport and/or phosphorylation of glucose under basal, unstimulated conditions are depressed in soleus muscle of ob/ob mice, whether or not resistance to insulin and hyperinsulinemia are also present. Although the origin of the decreased basal glucose uptake remains unknown it might be related to a similar decrease in basal glucose uptake by ventromedial hypothalamic cells, an event presumably resulting in a tendency to hyperphagia. Decreased basal glucose uptake by soleus muscle of ob/ob mice might explain the hyperglycemia, and hence partly the hyperinsulinemia and excessive fat deposition of those animals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
