title: [Insulin secretion and insulin resistance in type II diabetes. Relation to fatty acid composition of serum phospholipids].
abstract: Non-obese middle-aged men (n = 21) in an early stage after manifestation of Type 2 diabetes mellitus, and free of signs of atherosclerotic complications, when compared with an age-, weight- and sex-matched control group (n = 14), were found to show: 1. a decrease in linoleic acid content and increase in polyunsaturated elongated forms of n-6 and n-3 families fatty acids in serum phospholipids; 2. fasting hyperinsulinemia and impaired dynamics of insulin secretion after glucose load; 3. insulin resistance due to both receptor and postreceptor defect. Under physiologic conditions (i.e., in the control group), the drop in linoleic acid content and the rise in saturated fatty acids were associated with increased insulin secretion, and decrease in maximal insulin action. The nature of the changes in fatty acid pattern, the decrease in linoleic acid in particular, resembles findings made in persons who died middle-aged from serious complications of atherosclerosis. Combined with the relationship between the fatty acid composition of lipids and insulin secretion and action, our findings suggest a common metabolic defect of atherosclerosis and Type 2 diabetes which is probably insulin resistance in glucose metabolism.
