| Abstract | Diabetic patients treated with inhaled insulin exhibit reduced fasting plasma glucose levels. In dogs, insulin action in muscle is enhanced for as long as 3 h after insulin inhalation. This study was designed to determine whether this effect lasts for a prolonged duration such that it could explain the effect observed in diabetic patients. Human insulin was administered via inhalation (Exubera; n = 9) or infusion (Humulin R; n = 9) in dogs using an infusion algorithm that yielded matched plasma insulin kinetics between the two groups. Somatostatin was infused to prevent insulin secretion, and glucagon was infused to replace basal plasma levels of the hormone. Glucose was infused into the portal vein at 4 mg/kg/min and into a peripheral vein to maintain the arterial plasma glucose level at 160 mg/dl. Arterial and hepatic sinusoidal insulin and glucose levels were virtually identical in the two groups. Notwithstanding, glucose utilization was greater when insulin was administered by inhalation. At its peak, the peripheral glucose infusion rate was 4 mg/kg/min greater in the inhalation group, and a 50% difference between groups persisted over 8 h. Inhalation of insulin caused a greater increase in nonhepatic glucose uptake in the first 3 h after inhalation; thereafter, net hepatic glucose uptake was greater. Inhalation of insulin was associated with greater than expected (based on insulin levels) glucose disposal. This may explain the reduced fasting glucose concentrations observed in humans after administration of certain inhaled insulin formulations compared with subcutaneous insulin. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
