Increased endogenous glucose production (EGP) and gluconeogenesis contribute to the pathogenesis of hyperglycaemia in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). In healthy subjects, however, EGP remains constant during administration of gluconeogenic precursors. This study was performed in ord

Insulin resistance is a common feature of Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. This defect in insulin-mediated glucose metabolism could result from a defect in either glucose oxidation or non-oxidative glucose disposal. To examine this question, euglycaemic insulin clamp studies were pe
Mild diabetes was induced in adult rats with streptozotocin (45 mg/kg body weight), and insulin sensitivity, glycogen deposition and glycogen synthase activity assessed in liver and muscle 5 weeks later. Diabetic rats had significantly elevated fasting blood glucose concentrations (5.6 +/- 0.1 versu
