Full textType 1 diabetes (DMT1) leads to absolute insulin deficiency due to immunologic destruction of the islet cells. Therefore affected patients need lifelong insulin treatment. Newer therapies for type 1 diabetes are aimed at developing insulin delivery systems that mimick normal physiology, identifying newer insulins that mimick endogenous insulin. To reproduce physiologic insulin secretion, both long- and short-acting insulins are used. Long-acting insulin, given at bedtime, suppresses glucose output from the liver overnight and provides basal insulin between meals; bolus doses of short-acting insulin modulate glucose excursions associated with carbohydrate consumption. Optimal glycemic control is necessary to reduce the risk for diabetes complications. However, tight glucose control carries a risk for hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia may accelerate the vascular complications of diabetes by increasing platelet aggregation, leading to higher cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality. Even brief hypoglycemia can cause profound dysfunction of the brain. Insulin administration by subcutaneous route has intrinsic limitations that, together with the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of insulin formulations, do not reproduce the physiological patterns of insulin secretion. Insulin degludec (IDeg) is an ultra-long insulin analog that has unique pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties with a half-life of more than 24 h and a duration of action of more than 42 h. Compared to insulin glargine , the insulin degludec glucose-lowering action at steady state shows four time lower day-to day variability. Randomized clinical studies of degludec have shown a reduction in nocturnal hypoglycemia compared to insulin glargine. Given this background, IDeg is an ultra-long insulin analog that exhibits low intra-individual variability and whose efficacy is comparable to IGlar, but which presents as advantages flexibility in dose timing and lower risk of hypoglycemia, benefits that may impact quality of life and adherence to therapy. In Europe data on the use or effect of degludec in the general diabetes population not exist yet. Thus collection of data under routine clinical practice is highly warranted in order to access the effectiveness of degludec in real-life clinical setting. Aim of this retrospective non interventional study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of switching to IDeg in insulin treated patients with DMT1 under condition of routine clinical care. In all patients (n: 900), basal insulin was switched to IDeg at least 6 months before the start of data collection. Baseline was defined as the most recent recording during the 3-month period before first prescription of IDeg. Values are presented as mean [95%CI]. HbA1c decreased by -0.20 % [-0.24; -0.17%] at 6 months vs baseline (P < .001). Rate ratio of overall (0.79 [0.69; 0.89]), non-severe nocturnal (0.54 [0.42; 0.69]) and severe (0.15 [0.09; 0.24]) hypoglycaemia was significantly lower in the 6-month post-switch period vs the pre-switch period (P < .001 for all). Total daily insulin dose decreased by -4.88 [-5.52; -4.24] U (-11%) at 6 months vs baseline (P < .001). This study demonstrates that switching patients to IDeg from other basal insulins improves glycaemic control and significantly reduces the risk of hypoglycaemia in routine clinical practice.

Full textAbstract: Compared to classic regular human insulin (RHI), short-acting insulin analogues were designed to better synchronize plasma insulin increase to food absorption. Although improvements were noted in subjects with type 1 diabetes, slight to no improvement in glycemic control were observed in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using SAIA instead of RHI. Nevertheless, they represent 75 % of all insulin users. Consequently, the relative useful-ness of SAIA in T2D patients is currently hotly debated. Injected volume and subcutaneous (sc) adipose tissue blood flow (ATBF) are two main factors involved in insulin absorption. In fact, T2D patients use large doses of insulin because of their resistance to insulin and have an ATBF 50 to 70 % lower than lean healthy subjects. We already showed that SAIA absorption is decreased in obese T2D (OT2D) subjects compared to normal weight healthy subjects and that volume has additional detrimental effects. We also showed that ATBF can be increased pharmacologically with vasoactive agents (VA) in healthy and insulin-resistant subjects. Then we suggest that in OT2D subjects, addition of VA to SAIA preparations will locally increase ATBF, improve insulin sc absorption (Pharmacokinetic - PK) and bioavailability, thus insulin hypoglycemic effect (Pharmacodynamic - PD). To test this hypothesis, we 1) assessed ATBF response of 4 selected VA within three experimental groups (normal weight, obese non-diabetic and OT2D subjects); 2) evaluated insulin PK/PD and bioavailability improvement in OT2D subjects after the addition of the best VA to SAIA lispro and 3) characterized expression of selected VA targets in sc adipose tissue biopsies, within equivalent experimental groups, and compared results with ATBF responses. All 4 VA were able to increase ATBF of OT2D subjects but in a less extend than other subjects. The occurrence of microvascular rarefaction and/or dysfunction in OT2D subjects can explain the hyporeactivity to tested VA. Nevertheless, one VA among others was shown more effective to increase ATBF in OT2D subjects and was then tested (mixed) with SAIA lispro. With the AV, PK/PD were improved only in OT2D subjects with A1c glycated hemoglobin ≥ 8 %; 4 subjects on 8. The sc absorption of 30 U + VA was faster by 14 and 71 min for respectively 20 and 80 % of the total area under the lispro plasmatic curve. But the sc absorption with VA appeared blunted with the other subjects. Maybe detrimental chemical interactions occurred between the VA and lispro, which could impede absorption. Our results suggest that diabetes control state, injection volume, and VA chemical characteristics influence the efficacy of our SAIA + VA concept. Further tests are needed to seize the impact of these factors on VA effectiveness in sc absorption improvement of SAIA in OT2D subjects.

Tissue factor (TF) bearing microparticles (MPs) are surrogates of important membrane remodeling and key players in the systemic and local dissemination of such stress.We investigated the effect of inflammatory stress on β cell survival and function in a MP-mediated cell crosstalk model. Pharmacological modulation by GLP-1 analogues was evaluated by measurement of insulin secretion, TF activity and assessment of plasma membrane remodeling. Our data evidenced MPs as autocrine effectors and possible new target for GLP-1 analogues. They bring new hints on the cellular mechanisms prompted by ischemia reperfusion during IBMIR

Full textIntroduction. Acromegaly is a rare disease, characterized by the production of high GH levels usually by pituitary adenoma leading to comorbidities as sleep apnea and insulin resistance, bringing increase of mortality and life span reduction. Objective: This study aims to assess the impact of treatment of sleep apnea with a continuous positive air pressure device (CPAP) on the insulin resistance by performing the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (HEC). Patients: From 156 acromegalic patients regularly attended on Neuroendocrine Unit of the Hospital das Clínicas, University of São Paulo Medical School, 12 subjects on somatostatin analogs (SA) harboring moderate to severe sleep apnea were selected. Methods: Patients were randomized in two groups of six subjects. Group A started treatment with CPAP while group B started treatment using a nasal dilator adhesive with placebo effect. Basal assessment included polysomnography, determination of GH, IGF-1, HbA1c, free fat acids, lipids assays, HEC as well as insulin resistance indexes (HOMA, HOMA2 and QUICKI). Patients were reevaluated after three months of treatment by the same tests and then the treatment was switched between groups with new assessment 90 days later. Results: A significant reduction on insulin resistance determined by the clamp derived sensibility index was observed after assessing the final data of all patients on CPAP (SICLAMP, pre and post CPAP, 3,83 versus 6,11, p=0,032). This reduction was not seen in the nasal dilator adhesive group (SICLAMP, pre and post adhesive, 5,53 versus 5,19, p=0,455). There was no significant difference on lipids, HbA1c or on peripheral insulin resistance indexes. Conclusion: CPAP treatment of acromegalic patients on AS with moderate to severe sleep apnea leaded to significant reduction on peripheral insulin resistance assessed by the HEC. HOMA, HOMA2 and QUICK did not detect this data

Objectives: The aims of the study are to estimate age- and sex-specific prevalence and incidence of sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy in Taiwan and evaluate the effect of systemic drugs on prevention of diabetic retinopathy progression, focusing on antihypertensive drugs and long-acting insulin analogues. Materials and Methods: Data was collected from a representative database, Longitudinal Health Insurance Database (LHID) 2005, during 2005, on a total of 222 incident cases of patients with sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy (STDR) among 29,165 type 2 diabetic patients. Sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy was defined as clinically significant macular edema or severe nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy or proliferative diabetic retinopathy according to the classification of the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study Research Group. Gender-specific and age-adjusted incidence and prevalence rates of STDR were analyzed for the patients with type 2 diabetes and STDR identified using ICD-9-CM codes and procedure codes. Type 2 diabetic patients aged 20-100 years, with at least one prescription for antihypertensive drugs between 2000 and 2011 were identified from Longitudinal Health Insurance Database (LHID) 2005. The incidence rates of STDR were followed and Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the risk associated with antihypertensive drugs. A retrospective cohort consisting of patients with type 2 diabetes aged &;#8805; 20 years and newly initiated on long-acting insulin analogues (glargine and detemir) and intermediate-acting human insulin were identified from the National Health Insurance database between January 2004 and December 2006 and categorized into different cohorts. Risk of developing STDR was determined by Cox proportional hazards models and compared between different cohorts. Results: The number of incident cases of STDR increased in line with the increasing diabetic population during 2005-2011. During 2005, no gender differences in the age-adjusted incidence and prevalence rates were observed. The prevalence of sight-threatening DR was significantly higher when patients were aged 40-59 and 60-79. The crude incidence rates of STDR among patients received thiazide diuretics, alpha-blockers, beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), and calcium channel blockers (CCB) were 16.45, 9.49, 12.81, 19.19, 17.63, and 18.15 per 1,000 person-years. Users of ACEI and ARB were associated with a significantly higher risk than CCB users, independent of baseline characteristics. After adjusting time-varying use of concomitant medications for propensity score (PS) matched or unmatched cohorts, the results showed that patients receiving ACEI, ARB and CCB were associated with a significantly greater risk compared with beta-blocker users. The hazard ratio varied from 1.18 to 1.55 with statistical significance. Of the 32,395 eligible patients, initiators of insulin glargine, insulin detemir and NPH insulin were identified for comparison through propensity score matching. Long-acting insulin analogue, glargine, was not associated with changed risk for STDR by intention-to-treat and time-varying use approaches between either matched or unmatched cohorts. However, patients treated with insulin detemir, were associated with significantly changed risk for sight-threatening DR while analyses were performed by different approach for matched and unmatched cohort. Conclusions: There was no significant difference in the incidence between genders. Our findings provide the evidence that the incident cases of STDR increased among identified type 2 diabetic patients, but the overall prevalence of STDR was in a declining trend in Taiwan, suggesting that decreased mortality rate, better diabetes management, and early detection of treatable DR might contribute to the prevalence patterns. Our study did not support a superiority of ACEI, ARB and CCB over beta-blockers for lowering the progression of DR over 11-year follow-up. While comparing long-acting insulin analogue, glargine, with NPH insulin, no significant difference in the risk of sight-threatening DR was found. However, significantly increased risk was detected in insulin detemir initiators compared with NPH insulin initiators. The strategies that aim at preventing DR by treating type 2 diabetic patients with long-acting insulin analogues remain further prospective studies with longer follow-up period to validate our observations within an appropriate dosage range and to further evaluate the safety of long-acting insulin analogues on reducing the progression of DR.

SUMMARY Basal insulin is recommended for the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who need initial insulin therapy. However, there is not sufficient evidence about long-term vascular effects between basal insulin in T2DM population. This study was aimed to estimate the risks of macrovascular events, microvascular events, hospitalized hypoglycemia and all-cause mortality between intermediate-acting human insulin (IAHI) and long-acting insulin analogue (LAIA) users. Selection criteria of study population included newly diagnosed T2DM during 1999-2012 and stable basal insulin use during 2004-2012. Previous studies used incident new-user cohort design who never exposed to any kinds of basal insulin. A prevalent new-user cohort design was adopted to include all possible basal insulin users and generalizability to real-world clinical practice settings. Comparability between treatment groups was achieved by matching on (1) initiation time of study drugs, (2) prior exposure to glucose-lowering agents, and (3) diabetes severity and comorbidities (propensity score). Cox proportional hazard model was employed to assess the association between treatments and study outcomes. Study primary results revealed that IAHI users were associated with higher risks of macrovascular and hospitalized hypoglycemia, and lower risks of microvascular events compared to IAHI users. The higher risks of macrovascular events in IAHI users might be partly explained by hypoglycemia, glucose variability and medication adherence. Future research is needed to explore the association between hypoglycemia event and CVD event in insulin users.

Full textInsulin is a protein hormone that is crucial for maintaining the concentration of blood glucose in vivo and is used clinically as a drug for the treatment of diabetes.
Chapter I provides for an overview and background on the state of the art in insulin treatment of diabetes and the many attempts, over 95 years, to improve the pharmaceutically relevant properties of insulin and improve our understanding of the model globular protein.
Chapter II demonstrates the incorporation of hydroxyproline analogs into insulin and shares the discovery of insulin with enhanced stability and an accelerated kinetic rate of dissociation. We also provide the highest resolution structure deposited in the PDB of insulin in the T2 state and the 3rd highest of any insulin to date.
Chapter III extends the incorporation of proline analogs in insulin to include fluorinated insulins. We also provide, for the first time, high-resolution structures of a single globular protein systematically mutated with all possible stereoisomers of fluorination at the 4-position on a single proline residue (4S, 4R, di-substituted).
Chapter IV extends the incorporation of proline analogs in insulin to include ring variant analogs. We also provide, for the first time, high-resolution structures of globular proteins containing pipecolic acid, azetidine-2-carboxylic acid and 3,4 dehydroproline in the polypeptide chain.
Chapter V discusses the significance of the findings described herein and discusses future directions to undertake in further engineering insulin for improved characteristics.
This thesis describes a systematic approach, akin to medicinal chemistry, of altering a particular protein side chain by atomistic changes. I hope that the breadth of different amino acids incorporated into a single globular protein combined with the structural, functional, thermodynamic and kinetic information contained within this set of mutants will provide future protein engineers, computational protein designers and proline enthusiasts with a wealth of new information to be used to improve our understanding of proteins and predictive power.

Examines the levels of insulin-like growth factor and the presence of IGF binding proteins in human wound fluid. Tests the potency of IGF-1 and 2 analogues in in vitro models of fibroblast activity and their effect on healing in normal and diabetic rodent wounds. Shows that IGF-1, IGF-2 and their binding proteins are present in fluid from a partial thickness cutaneous wound; that the binding proteins negatively modulate the activity of insulin-like growth factors in vitro, but that the IGFs do not necessarily show enhanced activity in vivo at the wound site if binding protein affinity is decreased. Discusses possible roles of these binding proteins in wound repair.

This study shows that when LR3IGF-I is administered to animals in pharmacologically active doses, it may be present in either the free form or bound to IGF-binding protein(s) in the circulation. Age and nutrition which are factors that regulate synthesis of endogenous IGF-I and IGF-binding proteins, affect the in vivo formation of complexes between the analog and IGFBP(s). This study also suggests that IGFBP-1 inhibits the pharmacological activity of circulating LR3IGF-I on thymus whereas it appears to stimulate the pharmacological activity of LR3IGF-I in kidneys.
