Direct and indirect effects of insulin on hepatic glucose production in diabetic depancreatized dogs during euglycemia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Insulin suppresses glucose production (GP) via both extrahepatic (indirect) and hepatic (direct) effects. We have shown that the direct effect, undetectable in moderately hyperglycemic diabetic dogs, is restored by insulin-induced euglycemia. The first aim of the present study was to determine whether euglycemia per se, and not the excess insulin needed to obtain it, restores the direct effect of insulin on GP. Basal insulin was given portally in depancreatized dogs to attain only moderate hyperglycemia, then an additional insulin was given portally or peripherally to match the peripheral insulin levels and thus to obtain a greater hepatic insulinization with portal delivery. Plasma glucose was allowed to fall to euglycemia before a euglycemic clamp was performed. During euglycemia, there was a tendency (P=0.075) for greater suppression of GP by portal than peripheral insulin. Also, there was a significantly different effect of time (P=0.01) on GP in the two groups, with greater suppression over time in the portal group. The second aim was to test the hypothesis that because of inadequate hepatic insulinization and consequent lack of direct inhibition of GP, peripheral insulin replacement requires peripheral hyperinsulinemia to achieve euglycemia. Portal or peripheral insulin was given to achieve euglycemia and basal GP, and insulin levels were measured. More peripheral insulinemia was required with peripheral than portal insulin replacement to maintain similar euglycemia and GP. Our conclusions are as follows: (1) euglycemia per se is sufficient to acutely restore the direct effect of insulin on GP and (2) at euglycemia, peripheral replacement of insulin, as in insulin-treated diabetes, results in peripheral hyperinsulinemia but unchanged basal GP.

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.
