title: [Effect of progressive insulin resistance on the correlation of glucose metabolism and bone status].
abstract: A paradox is hidden in the increasing number of patients with insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis, as the world wide diabetes epidemic is driven by the same obesity which protects the bones in the obese females. Our aim was to investigate the connection between the early glucose intolerance, insulin resistance and bone density and metabolism. After metabolic status of matched 20 healthy and 51 glucose intolerant women (age: 49 +/- 9 y.) was determined, hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps were done, while adipo- and cytokine levels were measured. Bone mineral density over lumbar spine and the femur neck were measured by DEXA. No differences in bone density were observed between groups at any sites measured. Tight correlations were found between total body glucose utilization and bone density in healthy group (lumbar spine r = -0.4921, p < 0.05, femur neck: r = -0.4972, p < 0.05), while with deterioration of glucose metabolism this correlation disappeared (lumbar spine: r = -0.022, ns; femur neck: r = -0.3136, ns). The adiponectin was the only adipokine which correlated with lumbar spine density in both groups ( r = -0.5081, p < 0.05; -0.2804, p < 0.05), but not with femur density, where this connection disappeared with glucose intolerance ( r = -0.6742, p < 0.01; -0.1723, ns). Relations of bone metabolic markers indicated that bone resorption decreases with worsening of insulin resistance. In conclusion inverse correlations were found between bone density and glucose metabolism, or insulin sensitivity in healthy women in perimenopause, but this connection disappeared with the deterioration of glucose metabolism and progression of insulin resistance measured by the "gold standard" insulin-glucose clamps. Decreasing insulin sensitivity of bones and escape from "metabolic control" may result in frequently observed hyperdensity in Type 2 diabetics.
