Abstract
We have examined the effect of chronic (4 wk) hyperglycemia on insulin secretion in vivo in an awake, unstressed rat model. Three groups of animals were examined: control, partial (90%) pancreatectomy, and partial pancreatectomy plus phlorizin, in order to normalize plasma glucose levels. Insulin secretion in response to arginine (2 mM), hyperglycemia (+100 mg/dl), and arginine plus hyperglycemia was evaluated. In diabetic compared with control animals three specific alterations were observed: (a) a deficient insulin response, in both first and second phases, to hyperglycemia; (b) an augmented insulin response to the potentiating effect of arginine under basal glycemic conditions; and (c) an inability of hyperglycemia to augment the potentiating effect of arginine above that observed under basal glycemic conditions. Normalization of the plasma glucose profile by phlorizin treatment in diabetic rats completely corrected all three beta cell abnormalities. These results indicate that chronic hyperglycemia can lead to a defect in in vivo insulin secretion which is reversible when normoglycemia is restored.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
