The effects of prior
fast duration (18 h, n = 8;
42 h, n = 8) on the glycemic and
tissue-specific responses to an intraduodenal glucose load were studied
in chronically catheterized conscious dogs.
[3-3H]glucose was
infused throughout the study. After basal measurements, glucose spiked
with [U-14C]glucose
was infused for 150 min intraduodenally. Arterial insulin and glucagon
were similar in the two groups. Arterial glucose (mg/dl) rose ~70%
more during glucose infusion after 42 h than after an 18-h fast. The
net hepatic glucose balance
(mg · kg
1 · min
1)
was similar in the two groups (basal: 1.8 ± 0.2 and 2.0 ± 0.3; glucose infusion:
2.2 ± 0.5 and
2.2 ± 0.7). The
intrahepatic fate of glucose was 79% glycogen, 13% oxidized, and 8%
lactate release after a 42-h fast; it was 23% glycogen, 21% oxidized, and 56% lactate release after an 18-h fast. Net hindlimb glucose uptake was similar between groups. The appearance of intraduodenal glucose during glucose infusion (mg/kg) was 900 ± 50 and 1,120 ± 40 after 18- and 42-h fasts (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: glucose administration after prolonged fasting induces
higher circulating glucose than a shorter fast (increased appearance of
intraduodenal glucose); liver and hindlimb glucose uptakes and the
hormonal response, however, are unchanged; finally, an intrahepatic
redistribution of carbons favors glycogen deposition.
