An impaired pancreatic polypeptide response (PP) after hypoglycemia has been described in type I diabetic patients with overt autonomic neuropathy. Some authors have suggested that PP release might be useful as sensitive indicator of autonomic neuropathy. The meal test is safer and simpler than the insulin infusion test as PP stimulus. The aim of this study was to compare PP response to insulin infusion and protein meal test and to correlate these responses to the presence of measurable neuropathic disturbances. We thus studied 13 IDDM children and adolescents and 6 normal children. In diabetics the PP response to both tests was not different from that of the control subjects, but PP response to insulin infusion was inversely correlated to the duration of illness and was significantly lower in subjects with pathological heart rate response when compared to the control group. PP responses to the two stimuli were not correlated. We suggest that reduced PP response to hypoglycemia is an early sign of autonomic neuropathy as well as impairment of beat-to-beat variation when impaired PP response to meal test is still not evident.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D010191 Pancreatic Polypeptide A 36-amino acid pancreatic hormone that is secreted mainly by endocrine cells found at the periphery of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS and adjacent to cells containing SOMATOSTATIN and GLUCAGON. Pancreatic polypeptide (PP), when administered peripherally, can suppress gastric secretion, gastric emptying, pancreatic enzyme secretion, and appetite. A lack of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) has been associated with OBESITY in rats and mice. Pancreatic Polypeptide (PP),Pancreatic Polypeptide Hormone,Pancreatic Prohormone

D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
