Subsensitivity to insulin in adipocytes from rats submitted to foot-shock stress
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We examined the effect of three daily foot-shock stress sessions on glucose homeostasis, insulin secretion by isolated pancreatic islets, insulin sensitivity of white adipocytes, and glycogen stores in the liver and soleus muscle of rats. Stressed rats had plasma glucose (128.3 +/- 22.9 mg/dL) and insulin (1.09 +/- 0.33 ng/mL) levels higher than the controls (glucose, 73.8 +/- 3.5 mg/dL; insulin, 0.53 +/- 0.11 ng/mL, ANOVA plus Fisher's test; p < 0.05). After a glucose overload, the plasma glucose, but not insulin, levels remained higher (area under the curve 8.19 +/- 1.03 vs. 4.84 +/- 1.33 g/dL 30 min and 102.7 +/- 12.2 vs. 93.2 +/- 16.1 ng/mL 30 min, respectively). Although, the area under the insulin curve was higher in stressed (72.8 +/- 9.8 ng/mL) rats than in control rats (34.9 +/- 6.9 ng/mL) in the initial 10 min after glucose overload. The insulin release stimulated by glucose in pancreatic islets was not modified after stress. Adipocytes basal lipolysis was higher (stressed, 1.03 +/- 0.14; control, 0.69 +/- 0.11 micromol of glycerol in 60 min/100 mg of total lipids) but maximal lipolysis stimulated by norepinephrine was not different (stressed, 1.82 +/- 0.35; control, 1.46 +/- 0.09 micromol of glycerol in 60 min/100 mg of total lipids) after stress. Insulin dose-dependently inhibited the lipolytic response to norepinephrine by up to 35% in adipocytes from control rats but had no effect on adipocytes from stressed rats. The liver glycogen content was unaltered by stress, but was lower in soleus muscle from stressed rats than in control rats (0.45 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.35 +/- 0.04 mg/100 mg of wet tissue). These results suggest that rats submitted to foot-shock stress develop hyperglycemia along with hyperinsulinemia as a consequence of insulin subsensitivity in adipose tissue, with no alteration in the pancreatic sensitivity to glucose. Foot-shock stress may therefore provide a useful short-term model of insulin subsensitivity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
