In this study, we
investigated the hypothesis that impairments in forearm skeletal muscle
free fatty acid (FFA) metabolism are present in patients with type 2 diabetes both in the overnight fasted state and during
-adrenergic
stimulation. Eight obese subjects with type 2 diabetes and eight
nonobese controls (Con) were studied using the forearm balance
technique and indirect calorimetry during infusion of the stable
isotope tracer [U-13C]palmitate after an overnight fast
and during infusion of the nonselective
-agonist isoprenaline (Iso,
20 ng · kg lean body mass
1 · min
1). Additionally, activities of mitochondrial enzymes
and of cytoplasmatic fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) were determined
in biopsies from the vastus lateralis muscle. Both during fasting and
Iso infusion, the tracer balance data showed that forearm muscle FFA uptake (Con vs. type 2: fast 449 ± 69 vs. 258 ± 42 and Iso
715 ± 129 vs. 398 ± 70 nmol · 100 ml
tissue
1 · min
1, P < 0.05) and FFA release were lower in type 2 diabetes compared with Con.
Also, the oxidation of plasma FFA by skeletal muscle was blunted during
Iso infusion in type 2 diabetes (Con vs. type 2: Iso 446 ± 274 vs. 16 ± 70 nmol · 100 ml tissue
1 · min
1, P < 0.05). The net forearm
glycerol release was increased in type 2 diabetic subjects
(P < 0.05), which points to an increased forearm
lipolysis. Additionally, skeletal muscle cytoplasmatic FABP content and
the activity of muscle oxidative enzymes were lowered in type 2 diabetes. We conclude that the uptake and oxidation of plasma FFA are
impaired in the forearm muscles of type 2 diabetic subjects in the
overnight fasted state with and without Iso stimulation.
