Differential loss of β-cell function in youth vs. adults following treatment withdrawal in the Restoring Insulin Secretion (RISE) study.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

To compare OGTT-derived estimates of β-cell function between youth and adults with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes after treatment discontinuation in RISE.

Methods

Youth (n = 89) and adults (n = 132) were randomized to 3 months glargine followed by 9 months metformin (G/M) or 12 months metformin (MET). Insulin sensitivity and β-cell responses were estimated from 3-hour OGTTs over 21 months. Linear mixed models tested for differences by time and age group within each treatment arm.

Results

After treatment withdrawal, HbA1c increased in both youth and adults with a larger net increase in G/M youth vs. adults at 21 months. Among youth, β-cell function decreased starting at 12 months in G/M and 15 months in MET. Among adults, β-cell function remained relatively stable although insulin secretion rates decreased in G/M at 21 months. At 21 months vs. baseline β-cell function declined to a greater extent in youth vs. adults in both the G/M and MET treatment arms.

Conclusions

After treatment withdrawal youth demonstrated progressive decline in β-cell function after stopping treatment with either G/M or MET. In contrast, β-cell function in adults remained stable despite an increase in HbA1c over time. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01779375 and NCT01779362 at clinical trials.gov.

Project description:The presence of islet autoantibodies and islet reactive T cells (T+) in adults with established type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been shown to identify those patients with more severe β-cell dysfunction. However, at what stage in the progression toward clinical T2D does islet autoimmunity emerge as an important component influencing β-cell dysfunction? In this ancillary study to the Restoring Insulin SEcretion (RISE) Study, we investigated the prevalence of and association with β-cell dysfunction of T+ and autoantibodies to the 65 kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase antigen (GADA) in obese pre-diabetes adults with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and recently diagnosed treatment naïve (Ndx) T2D. We further investigated the effect of 12 months of RISE interventions (metformin or liraglutide plus metformin, or with 3 months of insulin glargine followed by 9 months of metformin or placebo) on islet autoimmune reactivity. We observed GADA(+) in 1.6% of NdxT2D and 4.6% of IGT at baseline, and in 1.6% of NdxT2D and 5.3% of IGT at 12 months, but no significant associations between GADA(+) and β-cell function. T(+) was observed in 50% of NdxT2D and 60.4% of IGT at baseline, and in 68.4% of NdxT2D and 83.9% of IGT at 12 months. T(+) NdxT2D were observed to have significantly higher fasting glucose (p = 0.004), and 2 h glucose (p = 0.0032), but significantly lower steady state C-peptide (sscpep, p = 0.007) compared to T(-) NdxT2D. T(+) IGT participants demonstrated lower but not significant (p = 0.025) acute (first phase) C-peptide response to glucose (ACPRg) compared to T(-) IGT. With metformin treatment, T(+) participants were observed to have a significantly lower Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c, p = 0.002) and fasting C-peptide (p = 0.002) compared to T(-), whereas T(+) treated with liraglutide + metformin had significantly lower sscpep (p = 0.010) compared to T(-) participants. In the placebo group, T(+) participants demonstrated significantly lower ACPRg (p = 0.001) compared to T(-) participants. In summary, T(+) were found in a large percentage of obese pre-diabetes adults with IGT and in recently diagnosed T2D. Moreover, T(+) were significantly correlated with treatment effects and β-cell dysfunction. Our results demonstrate that T(+) are an important component in T2D.

Project description:IntroductionBiphasic insulin secretion is an intrinsic characteristic of the pancreatic islet and has clinical relevance due to the loss of first-phase in patients with Type 2 diabetes. As it has long been shown that first-phase insulin secretion only occurs in response to rapid changes in glucose, we tested the hypothesis that islet response to an increase in glucose is a combination of metabolism plus an osmotic effect where hypertonicity is driving first-phase insulin secretion.MethodsExperiments were performed using perifusion analysis of rat, mouse, and human islets. Insulin secretion rate (ISR) and other parameters associated with its regulation were measured in response to combinations of D-glucose and membrane-impermeable carbohydrates (L-glucose or mannitol) designed to dissect the effect of hypertonicity from that of glucose metabolism.ResultsRemarkably, the appearance of first-phase responses was wholly dependent on changes in tonicity: no first-phase in NAD(P)H, cytosolic calcium, cAMP secretion rate (cAMP SR), or ISR was observed when increased D-glucose concentration was counterbalanced by decreases in membrane-impermeable carbohydrates. When D-glucose was greater than 8 mM, rapid increases in L-glucose without any change in D-glucose resulted in first-phase responses in all measured parameters that were kinetically similar to D-glucose. First-phase ISR was completely abolished by H89 (a non-specific inhibitor of protein kinases) without affecting first-phase calcium response. Defining first-phase ISR as the difference between glucose-stimulated ISR with and without a change in hypertonicity, the peak of first-phase ISR occurred after second-phase ISR had reached steady state, consistent with the well-established glucose-dependency of mechanisms that potentiate glucose-stimulated ISR.DiscussionThe data collected in this study suggests a new model of glucose-stimulated biphasic ISR where first-phase ISR derives from (and after) a transitory amplification of second-phase ISR and driven by hypertonicity-induced rise in H89-inhibitable kinases likely driven by first-phase responses in cAMP, calcium, or a combination of both.
