Abstract
Abstract
CSNK1A1 is a serine/threonine kinase involved in multiple cellular processes, including cell division, beta catenin signaling, and TP53 activation. Inhibition of CSNK1A1 has previously been validated as a therapeutic strategy in hematologic malignancy, and degradation of CSNK1A1 protein is the downstream mechanism of action for lenalidomide in 5q- myelodysplasia (Krönke, et al. Nature. 2015.). However, lenalidomide is inactive in most solid tumor models, thus limiting the study of CSNK1A1 inhibition in other contexts. Analysis of genetic loss-of-function data from the Cancer Dependency Map reveals multiple sensitive models, including lineage-specific enrichment in colorectal and gastric cancer. In an academic-industry collaboration, we a) developed first-in-class potent and selective ATP-competitive CSNK1A1 small molecule inhibitors with preclinical anti-cancer efficacy in vivo, and b) identified FAM83 expression as a key determinant of inhibitor sensitivity.
We identified a tetrahydro-pyrrolopyridinone scaffold that was subsequently optimized to yield BAY-888 (CSNK1A1 IC50 4 nM @ 10 μM ATP; 63 nM @ 1 mM ATP) and BAY-204 (CSNK1A1 IC50 2 nM @ 10 μM ATP; 12 nM @ 1 mM ATP). The crystal structure of CSNK1A1 in complex with BAY-888 confirmed compound binding in the ATP binding pocket. Across the PRISM barcoded cell line panel of more than 500 solid tumor cell lines, inhibitors phenocopy the CSNK1A1 shRNA knockdown profile. To determine downstream mediators of CSNK1A1 inhibitor sensitivity, we performed co-IP mass spectrometry following CSNK1A1 pulldown and global phosphoproteomic assays following inhibitor treatment. We identified multiple interacting proteins that are also phosphorylation targets, including FAM83 family members. FAM83 was recently reported to mediate the subcellular localization of CSNK1A1 (Fulcher, et al. Sci Signal. 2018.). Excitingly, the baseline expression of FAM83B and FAM83H correlates with inhibitor and shRNA cell line sensitivity. Modulation of FAM83H expression altered CSNK1A1 localization and sensitivity to CSNK1A1 inhibition.
BAY-888 and BAY-204 are orally bioavailable and were evaluated in multiple murine cell line xenograft models. We observed promising efficacy in DLBCL (TMD8) in vivo as well as in multiple FAM83-high solid tumor models, including colorectal (HCT116 and HT29), gastric (IM95), and urothelial cancer (KU19-19). We identified RPS6 phosphorylation as one of the PD biomarkers correlating with efficacy in vivo. In summary, CSNK1A1 is a promising target with anti-tumor efficacy and achievable therapeutic index in preclinical models of FAM83-high solid tumors.

Abstract
Background Almost 40% of stroke patients have a poor outcome at 3 months after the index event. Predictors for stroke outcome in the early acute phase may help to tailor stroke treatment. Infection and inflammation are considered to influence stroke outcome. Methods In a prospective multicenter study in Germany and Spain, including 486 patients with acute ischemic stroke, we used multivariable regression analysis to investigate the association of poor outcome with monocytic HLA-DR (mHLA-DR) expression, interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) as markers for immunodepression, inflammation and infection. Outcome was assessed at 3 months after stroke via a structured telephone interview using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Poor outcome was defined as a mRS score of 3 or higher which included death. Furthermore, a time-to-event analysis for death within 3 months was performed. Results Three-month outcome data was available for 391 patients. Female sex, older age, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) and higher National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score as well as lower mHLA-DR levels, higher IL-6 and LBP-levels at day 1 were associated with poor outcome at 3 months in bivariate analysis. Furthermore, multivariable analysis revealed that lower mHLA-DR expression was associated with poor outcome. Female sex, older age, atrial fibrillation, SAP, higher NIHSS score, lower mHLA-DR expression and higher IL-6 levels were associated with shorter survival time in bivariate analysis. In multivariable analysis, SAP and higher IL-6 levels on day 1 were associated with shorter survival time. Conclusions SAP, lower mHLA-DR-expression and higher IL-6 levels on day one are associated with poor outcome and shorter survival time at 3 months after stroke onset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) - polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia and primary myelofibrosis - are associated with increased risk for ischaemic cerebrovascular events (ICVEs). Due to their low prevalence, MPNs often remain undiagnosed as the cause of ICVEs. METHODS Case records at the University of Tübingen between 2014 and 2017 were screened to identify patients with MPN-related ICVEs. Clinical features, brain imaging, laboratory findings, applied treatments and neurological outcomes were assessed. RESULTS In all, 3318 patients with ICVEs were identified, and amongst them 17 patients with MPN-related ICVEs were included in a retrospective study. In 58% of these patients, ICVEs were the first manifestation of the underlying MPN; 24% presented with transient ischaemic attack and 76% with ischaemic stroke. Potentially concurrent ICVE etiologies were noted in 70% of the patients. The majority (94%) of patients were positive for the JAK2 V617F mutation, whilst in 29% recurrent ICVEs (range two to three) were noted prior to MPN diagnosis. Early MPN diagnosis and management was the only significant prognostic factor for ICVE recurrence (P < 0.001). DISCUSSION Evidence is provided that, although rare, MPNs represent an underdiagnosed cause of recurrent ICVEs. High clinical awareness is warranted to identify an underlying MPN in patients presenting with sustained, abnormal blood count findings. Clinical algorithms for prompt MPN diagnosis and initiation of MPN treatment (e.g. cytoreductive therapy, phlebotomy) are required. As MPN management comprises a significant protective factor against ICVE recurrence, induction of MPN treatment should be regarded as an integral component of secondary stroke prevention in MPN-associated ICVEs.

Abstract
PURPOSE The catalytic function of BUB1 is required for chromosome arm resolution and positioning of the chromosomal passenger complex for resolution of spindle attachment errors and plays only a minor role in spindle assembly checkpoint activation. Here, we present the identification and preclinical pharmacologic profile of the first BUB1 kinase inhibitor with good bioavailability. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The Bayer compound library was screened for BUB1 kinase inhibitors and medicinal chemistry efforts to improve target affinity and physicochemical and pharmacokinetic parameters resulting in the identification of BAY 1816032 were performed. BAY 1816032 was characterized for kinase selectivity, inhibition of BUB1 signaling, and inhibition of tumor cell proliferation alone and in combination with taxanes, ATR, and PARP inhibitors. Effects on tumor growth in vivo were evaluated using human triple-negative breast xenograft models. RESULTS The highly selective compound BAY 1816032 showed long target residence time and induced chromosome mis-segregation upon combination with low concentrations of paclitaxel. It was synergistic or additive in combination with paclitaxel or docetaxel, as well as with ATR or PARP inhibitors in cellular assays. Tumor xenograft studies demonstrated a strong and statistically significant reduction of tumor size and excellent tolerability upon combination of BAY 1816032 with paclitaxel or olaparib as compared with the respective monotherapies. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest clinical proof-of-concept studies evaluating BAY 1816032 in combination with taxanes or PARP inhibitors to enhance their efficacy and potentially overcome resistance.

Abstract
Abstract
BUB1 (budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1) is a serine/threonine protein kinase. The protein is bound to kinetochores and plays a key role in the establishment of the mitotic spindle checkpoint and chromosome congression prior to anaphase.
Inhibition of BUB1 kinase represents a novel approach for cancer treatment: whereas cell cycle arrest is the predominant mode of action of a number of antimitotic cancer drugs (e.g. taxanes and vinca alkaloids), BUB1 inhibition results in aneuploidy and cell death by driving cells through mitosis irrespective of misattached chromosomes.
Here, we disclose for the first time the structure and functional characterization of a novel, first-in-class Bub1 kinase inhibitor. Medicinal chemistry efforts resulted in BAY 1816032 featuring high potency, long target residence time and good oral bioavailability. BAY 1816032 is highly selective for BUB1 displaying single digit nanomolar biochemical potency and double-digit nanomolar cellular potency (H2A induced HeLa-cells). Synergistic effects can be observed when BUB1 inhibitor BAY 1816032 is combined with low doses of paclitaxel affecting chromosome segregation and cell proliferation. X-ray data of benzylindoles allowed a better understanding of the binding mode. Further data on structure-activity relationships including pharmacokinetic characterization, drug metabolism and the synthesis of BAY 1816032 and analogues will be presented.
These results validate the innovative concept of interference with mitotic checkpoints and justify clinical proof of concept studies evaluating BUB1 inhibitor BAY 1816032 in combination with taxanes in order to enhance their efficacy and to potentially overcome resistance.

Abstract
Abstract
The spindle assembly checkpoint represents a highly conserved surveillance mechanism which safeguards correct chromosome segregation by delaying anaphase onset until all chromosomes are properly bi-oriented on the spindle apparatus. Non-catalytic functions of the mitotic kinase BUB1 (budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1) were reported to be essential for spindle assembly checkpoint activation. In contrast, the catalytic function of BUB1 plays a minor role in spindle assembly checkpoint activation but is required for chromosome arm resolution and positioning of the chromosomal passenger complex for resolution of spindle attachment errors. Here, we disclose for the first time the structure and functional characterization of a novel, first-in-class Bub1 kinase inhibitor. Medicinal chemistry efforts resulted in BAY 1816032 featuring high potency, long target residence time and good oral bioavailablity. It inhibits BUB1 enzymatic activity with an IC50 of 7 nanomol/L, shows slow dissociation kinetics resulting in a long target residence time of 87 min, and an excellent selectivity on a panel of 395 kinases. Mechanistically BAY 1816032 abrogated nocodazole-induced Thr-120 phosphorylation of the major BUB1 target protein histone H2A in HeLa cells with an IC50 of 29 nanomol/L, induced lagging chromosomes and mitotic delay. Persistent lagging chromosomes and missegregation were observed upon combination with low concentrations of paclitaxel. Single agent BAY 1816032 inhibited proliferation of various tumor cell lines with a median IC50 of 1.4 micromol/L and demonstrated synergy or additivity with paclitaxel or docetaxel in almost all cell lines evaluated (minimal combination index 0.3). In tumor xenograft studies BAY 1816032 only marginally inhibited tumor growth as single agent upon oral administration, however, upon combination with paclitaxel or docetaxel a strong and statistically significant reduction of tumor size as compared to the respective monotherapy was observed. Intratumoral levels of phospho-Thr120 H2A were found to be strongly reduced, and no hints on drug-drug interactions were found. In line with the good tolerability in xenograft studies, no relevant findings from non-GLP 2 weeks toxicological studies in rat and dog were reported. Our findings validate the innovative concept of interference with mitotic checkpoints and justify clinical proof of concept studies evaluating BUB1 inhibitor BAY 1816032 in combination with taxanes in order to enhance their efficacy and potentially overcome resistance.

Abstract
Abstract
The maintenance of correct chromosome number (euploidy) during cell division is ensured by a highly conserved surveillance mechanism termed ‘spindle assembly checkpoint’ which safeguards correct chromosome segregation by delaying anaphase onset until all chromosomes are properly bi-oriented on the spindle apparatus. The mitotic kinase BUB1 (budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1) was reported to contribute to both chromosome congression and checkpoint function, yet the role of BUB1 catalytic activity in these processes remains a matter of debate.
To differentiate between catalytic and non-catalytic functions of BUB1 we compared phenotypes provoked by BUB1 protein depletion with specific BUB1 kinase inhibition using two novel small molecule inhibitors of BUB1, termed BAY-320 and BAY-524.
BAY-320 and BAY-524 were highly potent and selective ATP-competitive inhibitors of BUB1 kinase activity with IC50 values in the single digit nanomolar range (at 10 micromolar ATP concentration). By monitoring phosphorylation of Thr120 in histone H2A, we showed that both compounds acted as potent BUB1 kinase inhibitors both biochemically and in human cells. We found that BUB1 inhibition substantially altered the chromosomal association of Shugoshin and the chromosomal passenger complex without major effects on global Aurora B function. Consequently, inhibition of BUB1 kinase clearly impaired chromosome arm resolution but, in stark contrast to depletion of BUB1 protein, only had a minor effect on cell cycle and SAC function. Importantly, BAY-320 and BAY-524 treatment sensitized cells to low doses of paclitaxel, synergistically affecting chromosome segregation and cell proliferation.
These findings are highly relevant to both our understanding of BUB1 kinase function during mitosis and the prospects of BUB1 as a target of anti-cancer therapies. In this regard, BAY-320 and BAY-524 are first-in-class inhibitors of BUB1 kinase and their potential utility as anti-cancer agents is being explored.

Abstract
The kinase Bub1 functions in the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) and in chromosome congression, but the role of its catalytic activity remains controversial. Here, we use two novel Bub1 inhibitors, BAY-320 and BAY-524, to demonstrate potent Bub1 kinase inhibition both in vitro and in intact cells. Then, we compared the cellular phenotypes of Bub1 kinase inhibition in HeLa and RPE1 cells with those of protein depletion, indicative of catalytic or scaffolding functions, respectively. Bub1 inhibition affected chromosome association of Shugoshin and the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), without abolishing global Aurora B function. Consequently, inhibition of Bub1 kinase impaired chromosome arm resolution but exerted only minor effects on mitotic progression or SAC function. Importantly, BAY-320 and BAY-524 treatment sensitized cells to low doses of Paclitaxel, impairing both chromosome segregation and cell proliferation. These findings are relevant to our understanding of Bub1 kinase function and the prospects of targeting Bub1 for therapeutic applications. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.12187.001 The DNA in our cells is packaged into structures called chromosomes. When a cell divides, these chromosomes need to be copied and then correctly separated so that both daughter cells have a full set of genetic information. Errors in separating chromosomes can lead to the death of cells, birth defects or contribute to the development of cancer. Chromosomes are separated by an array of protein fibers called the mitotic spindle. A surveillance mechanism known as the spindle assembly checkpoint prevents the cell from dividing until all the chromosomes have properly attached to the spindle. A protein called Bub1 is a central element of the SAC. However, it was not clear whether Bub1 works primarily as an enzyme or as a scaffolding protein. Baron, von Schubert et al. characterized two new molecules that inhibit Bub1’s enzyme activity and used them to investigate what role the enzyme plays in the spindle assembly checkpoint in human cells. The experiments compared the effects of these inhibitors to the effects of other molecules that block the production of Bub1. Baron, von Schubert et al.’s findings suggest that Bub1 works primarily as a scaffolding protein, but that the enzyme activity is required for optimal performance. Further experiments show that when the molecules that inhibit the Bub1 enzyme are combined with paclitaxel – a widely used therapeutic drug – cancer cells have more difficulties in separating their chromosomes and divide less often. The new inhibitors used by Baron, von Schubert et al. will be useful for future studies of this protein in different situations. Furthermore, these molecules may have the potential to be used as anti-cancer therapies in combination with other drugs. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.12187.002

Abstract
AIM To combat diabetic complications strict glycaemic control is desirable in type 2 diabetes, but some patients are severely insulin resistant and it is not known whether high doses of insulin are effective. This study was designed to determine the acute dose-response effects of insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes and severe insulin resistance. METHODS We included eight insulin-resistant (mean insulin dose: 186 IU/day; body mass index: 35) subjects with type 2 diabetes in a single-blinded, randomized crossover study. Each subject was studied on two occasions. On each occasion, subjects underwent two 3-h hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamps. The subjects were randomized to two low-dose insulin infusions (0.5 and 1.5 mU/kg/min in random order) on one occasion and to two high-dose insulin infusions (3.0 and 5.0 mU/kg/min in random order) on another occasion. RESULTS On all occasions, steady-state glucose infusion rates (SSGIRs) were accomplished and we observed a clear dose-response relationship with GIR values of 0.4 ± 0.2 (s.e.), 2.6 ± 0.6, 3.7 ± 0.8 and 4.9 ± 0.9 mg/kg/min during the 0.5, 1.5, 3.0 and 5.0 mU/kg/min insulin infusions, respectively (p < 0.001). Likewise, there was a dose-dependent suppression of endogenous glucose production (EGP) (p < 0.009), plasma free fatty acids (FFAs) (p < 0.001) and plasma glucagon (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results show that the insulin dose response in terms of GIR and EGP is preserved for insulin doses corresponding to >800 IU/day, suggesting effectiveness of very high insulin doses in severely insulin-resistant subjects.

Abstract
T-cell-mediated processes play an essential role in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis and psoriasis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the IL-2-inducible tyrosine kinase (Itk), an enzyme acting downstream of the T-cell receptor (TCR), in T-cell-dependent skin inflammation using three approaches. Itk knockout mice display significantly reduced inflammatory symptoms in mouse models of acute and subacute contact hypersensitivity (CHS) reactions. Systemic administration of a novel small molecule Itk inhibitor, Compound 44, created by chemical optimization of an initial high-throughput screening hit, inhibited Itk's activity with an IC50 in the nanomolar range. Compound 44 substantially reduced proinflammatory immune responses in vitro and in vivo after systemic administration in two acute CHS models. In addition, our data reveal that human Itk, comparable to its murine homologue, is expressed mainly in T cells and is increased in lesional skin from patients with atopic dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis. Finally, silencing of Itk by RNA interference in primary human T cells efficiently blocks TCR-induced lymphokine secretion. In conclusion, Itk represents an interesting new target for the therapy of T-cell-mediated inflammatory skin diseases.

Abstract
AIMS Two long-acting insulin analogues, insulin glargine and insulin detemir, have been developed as alternatives to neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin, which has been the preferred basal insulin preparation for decades. The aim was to directly compare the pharmacodynamic properties of the long-acting insulin analogues and NPH insulin after a single subcutaneous injection. METHODS The study was conducted as a double-blind, controlled, three-arm, crossover study including 10 healthy lean male volunteers. On three different occasions, each subject was challenged with 0.4 U kg(-1) of either insulin glargine, insulin detemir or NPH insulin. Plasma glucose was maintained at 0.3 mmol l(-1) below fasting level by glucose clamping for 24 h. C-peptide, insulin, free fatty acids (FFAs) and counter regulatory hormones were measured throughout the clamp period, whereas endogenous glucose release (EGR) was assessed by isotope dilution technique (3-(3)H-glucose). RESULTS The mean glucose infusion rate (GIR)-time profiles revealed no significant differences between the three preparations in the primary endpoints: Maximal GIR of approximately 3.4 mg kg(-1) min(-1) (P = 0.68), time to maximal GIR of approximately 10 h (TR(max)) (P = 0.35) and area under the GIR curve (GIR(AUC)) (P = 0.81). Compared with the other insulin preparations, EGR (see above)was lower for insulin detemir at the beginning of the clamp period (330-360 min) (P = 0.007) while GIR was lower (P = 0.005) and FFA concentrations were higher (P = 0.005) during the last 4 h of the clamp. CONCLUSIONS In this experimental design, only minor pharmacodynamic differences were demonstrated between insulin detemir, insulin glargine and NPH insulin.

Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) is a downstream molecule of p38, involved in the production of TNF-alpha, a key cytokine, and an established drug target for many inflammatory diseases. We investigated the role of MK2 in skin inflammation to determine its drug target potential. MK2 deficiency significantly decreased plasma TNF-alpha levels after systemic endotoxin application. Deficient mice showed decreased skin edema formation in chronic 2-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced irritative dermatitis and in subacute 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced contact hypersensitivity. Surprisingly, MK2 deficiency did not inhibit edema formation in subacute 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced contact allergy and even increased TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels as well as granulocyte infiltration in diseased ears. Ear inflammation in this model, however, was inhibited by TNF-alpha neutralization as it was in the subacute DNFB model. MK2 deficiency also did not show anti-inflammatory effects in acute DNFB-induced contact hypersensitivity, whereas the p38 inhibitor, SB203580, ameliorated skin inflammation supporting a pathophysiological role of p38. When evaluating possible mechanisms, we found that TNF-alpha production in MK2-deficient spleen cells was strongly diminished after TLR stimulation but less affected after T-cell receptor stimulation. Our data suggest that MK2, in contrast to its downstream effector molecule, TNF-alpha, has a rather elusive role in T-cell-dependent cutaneous inflammation.

Abstract
The human kinome describes a major group of intracellular signalling molecules. In the last few years, many molecules in the group have become targets for therapeutic interventions. Due to the conserved reaction mechanism of catalysis, protein kinases seem well "drugable" by small molecular weight inhibitors, thus opening the chance to novel oral bioavailable drug development. A large number of small molecule weight inhibitors for protein kinases have already been introduced into research and these molecules are extensively analysed in regard to their efficiency, potency and selectivity. Here we summarise the use of small molecule protein kinase inhibitors relevant for acute and chronic inflammation based on their essential role in cellular signaling mechanisms in immune cells such as macrophages, lymphoytes and granulocytes. We describe the progress made to develop inhibitors against Toll-like receptor associated kinases (IRAKs), against the MAPK kinase kinases Cot/Tpl-2 and TAK1, against Inhibitor-kappaB kinases (IKKs), against MAPK kinases (MEKs, MKKs), against MAPKs (ERK2, p38, JNKs) and against their downstream kinases MNK1 and MK2/3. This overview should help to keep up with the fast developing field and the continuously growing number of protein kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
Based on molecular modeling studies, macrocyclic inhibitors of phosphatase cdc25B were synthetically derived from steroids. A preliminary SAR for this new template was elaborated. A series of compounds shows inhibition of cdc25B in the low micromolar range and good selectivity versus other phosphatases. The compounds did not show a significant antiproliferative effect in MaTu or HaCaT cells.

Abstract
Cortisol's effects on lipid metabolism are controversial and may involve stimulation of both lipolysis and lipogenesis. This study was undertaken to define the role of physiological hypercortisolemia on systemic and regional lipolysis in humans. We investigated seven healthy young male volunteers after an overnight fast on two occasions by means of microdialysis and palmitate turnover in a placebo-controlled manner with a pancreatic pituitary clamp involving inhibition with somatostatin and substitution of growth hormone, glucagon, and insulin at basal levels. Hydrocortisone infusion increased circulating concentrations of cortisol (888 +/- 12 vs. 245 +/- 7 nmol/l). Interstitial glycerol concentrations rose in parallel in abdominal (327 +/- 35 vs. 156 +/- 30 micromol/l; P = 0.05) and femoral (178 +/- 28 vs. 91 +/- 22 micromol/l; P = 0.02) adipose tissue. Systemic [(3)H]palmitate turnover increased (165 +/- 17 vs. 92 +/- 24 micromol/min; P = 0.01). Levels of insulin, glucagon, and growth hormone were comparable. In conclusion, the present study unmistakably shows that cortisol in physiological concentrations is a potent stimulus of lipolysis and that this effect prevails equally in both femoral and abdominal adipose tissue.

Abstract
To explore the possible role of a reduced physical fitness for the diminished insulin sensitivity in first-degree relatives of NIDDM patients, 21 relatives and 22 matched control subjects were examined employing a hyperinsulinaemic (insulin infusion rate 0.6 mU/kg/min) euglycaemic clamp combined with the isotope dilution technique (3-3H-glucose), the forearm technique and indirect calorimetry. During hyperinsulinaemia glucose disposal (Rd) was significantly diminished in the relatives (p < 0.01). Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) was 15% lower in the relatives than in the controls (p = 0.03). There was a highly significant correlation between Rd and VO2 max in both groups. In multiple linear regression analyses with Rd as the dependent variable VO2 max significantly determined the level of Rd (p < 0.01), whereas forearm blood flow and anthropometric data did not. We concluded that the insulin resistance in healthyfirst degree relatives of patients with NIDDM is associated with a diminished physical work capacity. Whether this finding is ascribable to environmental or genetic factors remains to be determined.

Abstract
First degree relatives of patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are often reported to be insulin resistant. To examine the possible role of reduced physical fitness in this condition 21 first degree relatives of NIDDM patients and 22 control subjects without any history of diabetes were examined employing a 150-min hyperinsulinaemic (0.6 mU insulin. kg-1.min-1) euglycaemic clamp combined with the isotope dilution technique (3-(3)H-glucose, Hot GINF), the forearm technique and indirect calorimetry. During hyperinsulinaemia glucose disposal (Rd) and forearm glucose extraction were significantly diminished in the relatives (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05), but glucose oxidation and the suppressive effect on hepatic glucose production were normal. Arteriovenous differences across the forearm of the gluconeogenic precursors lactate, alanine and glycerol as well as the increments in forearm blood flow during hyperinsulinaemia were similar in the two groups. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) was lower in the relatives than in the control subjects (36.8 +/- 1.9 vs 42.1 +/- 2.0 ml.kg-1.min-1; p = 0.03). There was a highly significant correlation between Rd and VO2 max in both relatives and control subjects (r = 0.68 and 0.66, respectively; both p < 0.001). Comparison of the linear regression analyses of insulin-stimulated Rd on VO2 max in the two groups showed no significant differences between the slopes (0.10 +/- 0.03 vs 0.09 +/- 0.02) or the intercepts. In stepwise multiple linear regression analyses with insulin-stimulated Rd as the dependent variable VO2 max significantly determined the level of Rd (p < 0.01), whereas forearm blood flow and anthropometric data did not. In conclusion, the insulin resistance in healthy first degree relatives of patients with NIDDM is associated with a diminished physical work capacity. Whether, this finding is ascribable to environmental or genetic factors (e.g. differences in muscle fibre types, capillary density etc) remains to be determined.

To test the acute effect of a human amylin analog (AC137) on glucose metabolism in man, seven IDDM patients were infused in a randomized, double blind, cross-over study with AC137 (100 micrograms/h, n = 1; 50 micrograms/h, n = 6) or placebo for 330 min during a two-step euglycemic clamp (insulin infusion rates, 0.2 and 0.6 mU/kg.min; basal and hyperinsulinemic period, respectively) followed by a hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic clamp (insulin infusion rate, 1.5 mU/kg.min; hypoglycemic period). During euglycemia, no differences were found in glucose disposal (step 1, 2.43 +/- 0.20 vs. 2.03 +/- 0.26; step 2, 4.28 +/- 0.54 vs. 4.11 +/- 0.45 mg/kg.min; AC137 vs. placebo, mean +/- SEM), arteriovenous substrate balances across the forearm, or hepatic glucose production. During hypoglycemia, glucose fluxes were also similar. However, lactate release from the forearm was more pronounced (P < 0.05) with the analog than with placebo (area under the curve, -11.2 +/- 4.6 vs. -1.4 +/- 2.2 mmol/min.L). Despite similar plasma glucose nadirs (2.7 +/- 0.0 vs. 2.6 +/- 0.1 mmol/L; AC137 vs. placebo), circulating cortisol and GH rose to significantly higher levels during hypoglycemia with the amylin analog (P < 0.05). In conclusion, acute administration of the amylin analog AC137 did not influence insulin-stimulated glucose metabolism during euglycemic conditions. During imposed hypoglycemia, lactate release from skeletal muscle was, however, enhanced, and the rise in cortisol and GH was augmented.

Abstract
Insufficient metabolic control in diabetes mellitus is associated with a reversible reduction in nerve conduction velocity, but the mechanism behind this phenomenon is unknown. To examine the effect of acute hyperglycaemia on nerve conduction eight non-diabetic men (20-49 years of age) with no signs of peripheral neuropathy were studied before and after 3 h of hyperglycaemic clamping (plasma glucose approximately 15 mmol/l), while insulin secretion was suppressed by somatostatin [Study 1]. Nerve conduction velocity, as determined in the proximal part of the median nerve, fell by 2.8 +/- 3.0 m/s (2p-value: 0.033). However, during euglycaemic clamping (plasma glucose approximately 5 mmol/l) in five non-diabetic men (19-38 years of age) infused solely with somatostatin [Study 2], a comparable decrement in nerve conduction velocity was found (1.7 +/- 1.3 m/s, 2p-value: 0.043). In both studies relative hypoinsulinaemia was present. Serum-sodium decreased significantly (143 +/- 1 mmol/l vs 137 +/- 1 mmol/l [Study 1] and 143 +/- 1 mmol/l vs 142 +/- 2 mmol/l [Study 2]), while serum-potassium increased. In conclusion, the slight but significant reduction in nerve conduction velocity observed in both studies appears to be correlated to electrolyte changes. However, an effect of hypersomatostatinaemia or the hormonal changes associated with this cannot be excluded, while short-term hyperglycaemia per se seems to be without effect on nerve conduction velocity.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is considered to be the mediator of the growth-promoting effects of growth hormone (GH). The metabolic effects of these two hormones, however, are different. Whereas GH treatment leads to elevated insulin and glucose levels, reduced insulin sensitivity, and impaired glucose tolerance, IGF-I treatment leads to reduced insulin and GH levels and enhanced insulin sensitivity. IGF-I may, therefore, not only be the mediator of the growth-promoting effects of GH but also a modulator of the effects of GH on insulin action and glucose metabolism. To study the influence of GH and IGF-I on substrate metabolism and insulin sensitivity (assessed by euglycemic, hyperinsulinemic clamping combined with indirect calorimetry and glucose tracer infusion), we have treated eight GH-deficient adults with GH (2 IU/m2 daily subcutaneously [s.c.]), IGF-I (10 micrograms/kg.h s.c.), or both hormones together for 7 d, respectively, and compared the effects of these treatment regimens with a control phase. Our findings suggest that (a) both GH and IGF-I promote lipolysis and lipid oxidation, albeit by different mechanisms; (b) treatment with either hormone is followed by enhanced energy expenditure and reduced protein oxidation; and (c) IGF-I reverses the insulin resistance induced by GH.

Abstract
The present study was designed to examine the effect of pulsatile versus continuous insulin delivery on glucose and lipid metabolism in insulin-resistant subjects. Six obese women (body mass index, 40.0 +/- 2.8 kg/m2) underwent a euglycemic glucose clamp (plasma glucose, 90 mg/dL) twice. In random order, insulin was infused intravenously for 375 minutes either at a constant rate (0.4 mU/kg/min) or in a pulsatile manner (2.4 mU/kg/min for 2 minutes followed by an off interval of 10 minutes). Endogenous insulin release was suppressed by infusion of somatostatin (250 micrograms/h). Mean circulating insulin concentrations were similar during the two protocols (pulsatile v continuous infusion, 60 +/- 10 v 56 +/- 9 mU/L), but pulsatile infusion was accompanied by oscillations with an amplitude of 120 mU/L. After 6 hours of pulsatile versus continuous insulin, isotopically determined total glucose disposal (3-3H-glucose) and hepatic glucose production (HGP) were comparable (pulsatile v continuous, 2.80 +/- 0.56 v 2.82 +/- 0.51 and 0.37 +/- 0.14 v 0.32 +/- 0.17 mg/kg/min). However, the rate of glucose oxidation (indirect calorimetry) was augmented (P < .05), whereas lipid oxidation tended to be diminished (.10 > P > .05) following pulsatile infusion. In addition, blood glycerol was more suppressed with pulsatile (31 +/- 9 nmol/L) than with continuous infusion (36 +/- 10 nmol/L, P < .05), whereas blood lactate, alanine, and 3-hydroxybutyrate were similar in the two infusion protocols.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Many reports have suggested that hyperandrogenaemic patients with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be insulin resistant. However, there have also been suggestions that their insulin resistance may relate to obesity and android fat distribution. To assess whether PCOS induces metabolic disturbances independently of obesity, we studied seven lean patients with PCOS (age, 27.1 +/- 2.0 yr; body mass index, 22.2 +/- 0.78 kg/m2; waist/hip ratio, 0.79 +/- 0.02; fat-free mass, 46.38 +/- 1.13 kg) and seven normal women (age, 25.7 +/- 1.4 yr; body mass index, 21.3 +/- 0.69 kg/m2; waist/hip ratio, 0.74 +/- 0.02; fat-free mass, 50.1 +/- 1.51 kg) for 3 h in the basal period and 2 h during a hyperinsulinemic (0.4 mU/kg.min) euglycemic clamp. In the basal state, comparable metabolic indices were recorded: serum insulin, 35.9 +/- 7.7 (PCOS) vs. 37.3 +/- 2.87 pmol/L (controls); plasma C-peptide, 364.1 +/- 66.2 vs. 397.2 +/- 66.2 pmol/L; plasma glucose, 4.95 +/- 0.09 vs. 4.77 +/- 0.09 mmol/L; forearm arterio-venous difference in glucose, 0.17 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.15 +/- 0.07 mmol/L; isotopically determined endogenous glucose production, 1.9 +/- 0.1 vs. 2.0 +/- 0.1 mg/kg.min; and serum nonesterified fatty acids, 545 +/- 40 vs. 617 +/- 54 mumol/L (all P > 0.05). During the clamp, all recordings were again similar: serum insulin, 282.7 +/- 21.5 vs. 270.5 +/- 13.6 pmol/L; plasma C-peptide, 331.0 +/- 33.1 vs. 364.1 +/- 66.2 pmol/L; plasma glucose, 4.99 +/- 0.07 vs. 4.99 +/- 0.05 mmol/L; glucose arterio-venous difference, 1.01 +/- 0.18 vs. 0.85 +/- 0.12 mmol/L; endogenous glucose production, -0.9 +/- 0.1 vs. -0.5 +/- 0.2 mg/kg.min; amount of exogenous glucose necessary to maintain euglycemia, 4.0 +/- 0.4 vs. 3.8 +/- 0.5 mg/kg.min; and nonesterified fatty acids, 205 +/- 7 vs. 246 +/- 18 mumol/L (all P > 0.05). By showing normal basal and insulin-stimulated substrate metabolism in lean hyperandrogenemic PCOS patients, these data suggest that insulin resistance may be an epiphenomenon, rather than a primary feature of PCOS.

Abstract
To elucidate the effects of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on fuel oxidation and insulin sensitivity, eight healthy subjects were treated with saline and recombinant human (IGF-I (10 micrograms/kg.h) during 5 d in a crossover, randomized fashion, while receiving an isocaloric diet (30 kcal/kg.d) throughout the study period. On the third and fourth treatment days, respectively, an L-arginine stimulation test and an intravenous glucose tolerance test were performed. A euglycemic, hyperinsulinemic clamp combined with indirect calorimetry and a glucose tracer infusion were performed on the fifth treatment day. IGF-I treatment led to reduced fasting and stimulated (glucose and/or L-arginine) insulin and growth hormone secretion. Basal and stimulated glucagon secretion remained unchanged. Intravenous glucose tolerance was unaltered despite reduced insulin secretion. Resting energy expenditure and lipid oxidation were both elevated, while protein oxidation was reduced, and glucose turnover rates were unaltered on the fifth treatment day with IGF-I as compared to the control period. Enhanced lipolysis was reflected by elevated circulating free fatty acids. Moreover, insulin-stimulated oxidative and nonoxidative glucose disposal (i.e., insulin sensitivity) were enhanced during IGF-I treatment. Thus, IGF-I treatment leads to marked changes in lipid and protein oxidation, whereas, at the dose used, carbohydrate metabolism remains unaltered in the face of reduced insulin levels and enhanced insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
Patients with microvascular angina (syndrome X) may be insulin resistant. We designed a study to establish whether this is the case. 11 patients with microvascular angina were compared with 9 matched subjects with noncardiac chest pain. Patients and controls were evaluated by coronary sinus catheterisation, and by isotopic measurement of glucose turnover, indirect calorimetry, and forearm technique during a 3 h baseline period after overnight fast and during a 2 h hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp. Pace-induced increase in coronary sinus blood flow was less in patients than in controls, whereas forearm blood flow did not differ between groups. Baseline measures of glucose metabolism were normal. During the clamp, glucose production and lipolysis were equally suppressed in both groups. Mean (SE) total insulin-induced glucose uptake was significantly impaired in patients compared with controls (3.9 [0.7] vs 6.4 [0.7] mg/kg per min; p < 0.01), and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in the forearm was significantly reduced in patients (0.88 [0.10] vs 1.6 [0.30] mmol/L; p < 0.001). Reduced oxidative and nonoxidative metabolism accounted for the defect in overall glucose uptake in patients. No correlation between changes in coronary sinus blood flow and total body glucose uptake was seen. We found that microvascular angina was associated with substantial insulin resistance. Whether this relation is causal or coincidental is as yet unsettled.

Abstract
Underestimation of glucose turnover rates has been a problem in clamp studies using primed-constant [3-3H]-glucose infusion technique. Due to slow mixing in interstitial compartments concealed specific activity gradients may arise between plasma and interstitial compartments during intravenous unlabelled glucose infusion. Such specific activity gradients, however, can be prevented if plasma specific activity is maintained constant. Two euglycaemic clamp studies (insulin infusion 40 mU m-2 min-1) were performed in six lean normal subjects. Using conventional unlabelled glucose infusates plasma specific activity declined by 74%, tracer determined glucose appearance was smaller than actual glucose infusion rates (317 +/- 11 vs 366 +/- 15 mg m-2 min-1, p < 0.001), and erroneous negative values were calculated for glucose production (- 49 +/- 7 mg m-2 min-1). Average underestimation during the first 2 h correlated with glucose infusion rates (r = 0.88, p < 0.02). In contrast, when plasma specific activity was maintained constant, using appropriately labelled glucose infusates, tracer determined glucose appearance and glucose infusion rates were similar (385 +/- 16 vs 385 +/- 17 mg m-2 min-1), and negative errors for glucose production were avoided. In conclusion, using unlabelled glucose infusates, as in previous studies, suppression of glucose production is overestimated and stimulation of glucose utilization is underestimated. As errors were greater with larger glucose infusions, the mistakes may have been greatest in insulin sensitive control subjects, and smaller in insulin resistant subjects. Therefore, re-evaluation of hepatic insulin sensitivity seems appropriate in diabetes, obesity, and other insulin resistant states.

Abstract
The effect of glucagon infusion on hepatic glucose production during euglycaemia was evaluated in seven Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients and in ten control subjects. In the diabetic subjects normoglycaemia was maintained during the night preceding the study by a variable intravenous insulin and glucose infusion. During the study endogenous insulin secretion was suppressed by somatostatin (450 micrograms/h) and replaced by insulin infusion (0.15 mU.kg-1.min-1). 3H-glucose was infused for isotopic determination of glucose turnover. Plasma glucose was clamped at 5 mmol/l for 2 h 30 min and glucagon (1.5 ng.kg-1.min-1) was then infused for the following 3 h. Hepatic glucose production and glucose utilisation were measured during the first, second and third hour of the glucagon infusion. Basal hepatic glucose production (just prior to glucagon infusion) was similar in diabetic (1.2 +/- 0.3 mg.kg-1.min-1) and control (1.6 +/- 0.1 mg.kg-1.min-1) subjects. In diabetic patients hepatic glucose production rose slowly to 2.1 +/- 0.5 mg.kg-1.min-1 during the first hours of glucagon infusion and stabilized at this level (2.4 +/- 0.5 mg.kg-1.min-1) in the third hour. In control subjects hepatic glucose production increased sharply to higher levels than in the diabetic subjects (3.4 +/- 0.3 mg.kg-1.min-1) during the first and second hour of glucagon infusion (p less than 0.05) and then gradually fell (2.9 +/- 0.4 mg.kg-1.min-1) during the third hour. In conclusion, when stimulated with glucagon at a physiologic plasma concentration diabetic patients had 1) an overall reduced hepatic glucose production response and 2) an abnormal sluggish response pattern.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
While it has very recently been reported that tumour induced hypoglycaemia is characterised by elevated production of insulin-like growth factor 2, the tissues responsible for induction of hypoglycaemia are largely unknown. We have investigated a patient with a large retroperitoneal mass and spontaneous hypoglycaemia. When compared to a reference population the patient displayed: (1) An increased glucose disposal rate and a five-fold elevation of forearm glucose uptake. (2) A decreased endogenous glucose production rate. (3) Decreased circulating levels of lipid intermediates. (4) Increased glucose oxidation and decreased lipid oxidation. (5) Low circulating levels of insulin-like growth factor 2 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 and normal levels of insulin-like growth factor 1. (6) Normal insulin sensitivity (euglycaemic glucose clamp). Blood concentrations of insulin, C-peptide, proinsulin, glucagon, growth hormone and catecholamines were within normal range, but the growth hormone response to hypoglycaemia was blunted. The data suggest that the mechanisms behind tumour induced hypoglycaemia are of systemic nature and that the tissue most prominently affected is striated muscle.

Abstract
To evaluate the impact of ACE-inhibitors on insulin-mediated glucose uptake, glucose-induced glucose uptake, and hepatic glucose production, a sequential glucose clamp was performed in eight normotensive Type 1 diabetic patients after 3 weeks of enalapril therapy 20 mg day-1 and during control conditions. The experiments were carried out in random order. Mean arterial blood pressure was significantly reduced during ACE-inhibition (95 +/- 3 (+/- SE) vs 84 +/- 3 mmHg; p less than 0.02), while blood glucose control as assessed by HbA1c was unaltered (7.9 +/- 0.5 vs 7.6 +/- 0.5%). The night prior to the study normoglycaemia was maintained by a Biostator. A two-step hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp (insulin infusion rate 0.3 and 0.8 mU kg-1 min-1) was followed by a hyperinsulinaemic and hyperglycaemic clamp (insulin infusion rate 0.8 mU kg-1 min-1, plasma glucose 11 mmol l-1). Insulin concentrations were comparable with and without enalapril treatment. During the hyperinsulinaemic clamps isotopically determined glucose disposal was unchanged (low dose 2.5 +/- 0.3, high dose 4.3 +/- 0.7 vs 2.6 +/- 0.3 and 4.3 +/- 0.7 mg kg-1 min-1, enalapril vs control). Glucose-induced glucose disposal (9.2 +/- 1.2 vs 9.1 +/- 1.2 mg kg-1 min-1) was also similar, as were non-protein respiratory exchange ratios (indirect calorimetry). Glucose production was not changed by enalapril. In conclusion, treatment with enalapril has no significant effect on glucose metabolism in Type 1 diabetes.
