Abstract:
:Insulin secretion was studied in 12 non-insulin dependent diabetics during middle-term administration of the sulphonylurea gliclazide. Blood sugar, C-peptide and glucagon were also estimated during the intravenous glucose tolerance and arginine tests performed before and after therapy. After 3 months of gliclazide therapy (240 mg/day) in addition to a low carbohydrate diet, the intravenous glucose tolerance test showed a significant reduction in blood sugar levels and in the partial and total areas under the blood sugar curve, as well as an improvement in early insulin secretion, characterized by a significant increase in plasma C-peptide at 4, 10 and 20 minutes. Plasma glucagon levels were not affected by the sulphonylurea therapy. In the arginine test, blood sugar levels were lower at the end of the treatment period; plasma insulin, C-peptide and glucagon did not change significantly. In this study, plasma C-peptide has proved to be a better indicator of stimulated insulin secretion than plasma insulin levels. The scarcity of hypoglycaemic episodes during therapy with gliclazide may be related to the selective stimulation of early insulin secretion by this drug.
