| Abstract | AIMS: Amino acid (AA) metabolism is altered in type 2 diabetes (T2D), and fasting levels of -hydroxybutyrate ( -HB), a biomarker for insulin resistance, have been suggested to track AA metabolism. We investigated the changes in AA and -HB induced by a mixed-meal tolerance test (MTT) and the effects of sitagliptin treatment. METHODS: Forty-seven T2D patients [56 ± 7 years, body mass index (BMI) 29.9 ± 4.2 kg/m(2) ] were randomized to sitagliptin (100 mg/day, 6 weeks) or placebo. Seven age- and BMI-matched non-diabetic subjects served as control (CT). RESULTS: During a 5-h MTT, branched-chain AA (BCAA) peaked earlier in T2D than CT [75(25) vs. 62(3) mmol/l · h over 2 h, median(interquartile range), p = 0.05], and rose higher [5-h increment: 31(23) vs. 19(24) mmol/l · h, p = 0.05]. Fasting -HB was higher [7.5(2.7) vs. 5.9(1.3) µg/ml, p = 0.04 T2D vs. CT], and its meal-induced increments were larger [24(99) vs. -41(86) µg/ml · h, p = 0.006]. Plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) declined during MTT, but their increments were greater in patients (53 ± 16 vs. 35 ± 10 mEq/l · h, p = 0.005). Compared to placebo, both BCAA [-6.4(21.1) vs. 0.0(48.0) mmol/l · h, p = 0.01] and -HB increments [-114(250) vs. 114(428) µg/ml · h, p = 0.002] decreased with sitagliptin, and meal-induced NEFA suppression was improved. Changes in BCAA and -HB were reciprocally related to changes in insulin sensitivity (ρ = -0.37 and -0.43, p ≤ 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: T2D is associated with a hyperaminoacidaemic response to MTT, which circulating -HB levels track. Sitagliptin-induced glycaemic improvement was associated with reductions in BCAA and -HB excursions and better NEFA suppression, in parallel with improved insulin sensitivity, confirming that -HB is a readout of metabolic overload. |

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.
