The effect of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion on insulin binding to erythrocytes in diabetes mellitus. 1987

F M Ng, and E Babacan, and M Cohen, and P Z Zimmet

The effect of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) on glycaemic control and insulin binding to erythrocytes was studied in six diabetic patients. A marked improvement in blood glucose control during CSII was observed in these patients previously on conventional therapy. Specific 125I-insulin binding to erythrocytes of the diabetics before the institution of CSII was significantly lower than that of age-, weight- and sex-matched nondiabetic subjects, 6.5 +/- 0.1% vs. 9.8 +/- 0.3% (P less than 0.05). After 4-6 months of CSII, insulin binding was restored to normal levels. This normalization in insulin binding to erythrocytes of patients on CSII was due to a 35% increase in active binding sites, together with a small change in binding affinity.

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).

D007332 Insulin Infusion Systems Portable or implantable devices for infusion of insulin. Includes open-loop systems which may be patient-operated or controlled by a pre-set program and are designed for constant delivery of small quantities of insulin, increased during food ingestion, and closed-loop systems which deliver quantities of insulin automatically based on an electronic glucose sensor.

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.
