Q

what cell of the pancrease secretes insulin

describe the mechanism of this secretion

A

Beta Cell

GLUT 2 Receptor – Glucose enter the Beta Cell
Glucokinase – controls the rate of the glucose in to the Beta Cell
Increased Mitochondrial Acitivty
Increased ATP/ADP ratio
Closure of the Inward Rectifying K channel
Depolarization of the Cell
Opening of VG Calcium channels
Insulin packaged in vesicles; released when exposed to Ca2+

Q

effects of insulin on the:
liver
adipose
muscle

A

Liver –
Anabolic: Glycogen Synth, Fatty Acid Synth (shunting towards energy storage)
AntiCatabolic: Inhibits GNG, Glycogenolyisis, ketogenesis

Adipose –
Anabolic: Promotes Fatty acid uptake; Triglyceride formation and storage
AntiCatabolic: Inhibits Lipolysis

Muscle –
Anabolic: Glycogen synthesis; protein synthesis
Anticatabolic: Inhibits proteolysis

Q

what cells are indepdent of insulin for uptake of Glucose?

what cells are depedent

wjhat are the associated GLUT Transporters

A

Indepedent: RBC and Brain — GLUT 1

dependent – muscle, fat – GLUT4

what are 3 monogenic forms of DM

A

MODY - Mutatins to Glucokinase genes (MODY 2)

Maternally Inherited DM and Deafness (MIDD) – mitochondrial DNA

Q

what is DKA

how do you treat it?

A

States of Low Insulin, but Increased glucagon, catecholamine’s, Cortisol

Increased Lipolysis —> Increased FFA in Plasma —> FFA to Liver —> KETOGENESIS –> Ketonemia/Ketoniuria —> Decreased Alkali Rerserve —> Acidosis

Treatment: IV Fluids, Insulin, Electrolyte Management (K+)

Q

what is a Hyperosmolar / Hyperglycemic States: describe the progression

A

after a trigger (infection) – decreased insulin but high glucagon

Utilization/Uptake, but High GNG —> increased Plasma Glucose
—> Glucose osmotic Diuresis —> urinary loses of H20 greater than that other electrolytes —> Dehydration
Hyperosmolar state —> Shock —-> Coma —-> Death
