To search if biological effects of GLP-I on glucose metabolism in
extrapancreatic tissue are present in diabetic states, we have studied the
action of GLP-I and insulin on glycogen-enzyme activity, glycogen
synthesis, and glucose metabolism in isolated hepatocytes and soleus muscle
from adult streptozotocin (STZ)- and neonatal STZ-treated diabetic rats.
This work confirms the previously reported insulin-like effects of GLP-I on
glucose metabolism in both muscle and liver tissue from normal rats
(control). The present study extends those observations to the muscle and
liver tissue of diabetic animals. In both muscle and liver tissue, the
metabolism of D-glucose, in the absence of added peptides, was more
severely affected in adult STZ (IDDM model) than in neonatal STZ (nSTZ;
NIDDM model) rats, and the magnitude of hormonal effect on metabolic
variables was lower in diabetic rats than in control rats, as a rule.
Nevertheless, in liver and muscle tissue of diabetic rats, GLP-I was able
to increase glycogen synthase activity, augment the net rate of
D-[U-14C]glucose incorporation into glycogen, and increase D-[5-3H]glucose
utilization, D-[U-14C]glucose oxidation, and lactate production. In
conclusion, GLP-I exerts insulin-like effects on D-glucose metabolism in
both muscle and liver tissue in IDDM or NIDDM animal models, and present
observations reinforce the view that GLP-I may represent a most promising
tool in the treatment of diabetic patients.
