- W2079531872 abstract "After total pancreatectomy concentrations of circulating immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) were elevated (255 ± 37 pg/ml, mean ± SEM; n = 20) in comparison to unoperated cats (119 ± 27 pg/ml). Plasma glucagon concentrations were determined in an assay regarded as specific for pancreatic glucagon. The nature of this extrapancreatic IRG was further examined in the following studies. Arginine (0.45 gm/kg i.v.) caused a marked elevation of IRG in normal animals but did not cause a consistent elevation of IRG in 6 pancreatectomized cats. Whereas somatostatin (20 μg/kg/hr i.v. for 1 hr) in 10 pancreatectomized cats caused a reduction in IRG from 195 ± 45 to 64 ± 22 pg/ml (p < 0.02), blood glucose did not change. Moreover, insulin (0.22 U/kg/hr i.v. for 1 hr) failed to reduce blood glucose levels in 6 pancreatectomized cats despite a fall in IRG from 269 ± 87 to 150 ± 62 pg/ml (p < 0.05). Glucagon (4 ng/kg/min i.v. for 1 hr) given during the second hour of somatostatin infusion failed to raise blood glucose in 7 untreated pancreatectomized cats. However, when euglycemia was achieved by prolonged insulin therapy in 2 pancreatectomized animals, extrapancreatic IRG became completely suppressed and a hyperglycemic response to exogenous glucagon was restored. Although extrapancreatic IRG appeared identical to pancreatic glucagon by immunoassay, Sephadex G50 chromatography of plasma from 4 pancreatectomized animals showed that 40%–90% of the IRG was of approximately 9000–10,000 molecular weight. Only 10%–60% was of molecular weight corresponding to pancreatic glucagon, i.e., 3500. This contrasted with normal cats, in whom more than 90% of IRG was of molecular weight 3500. The excessive secretion of extrapancreatic IRG is probably related to insulin deficiency since it is reversed by prolonged insulin therapy. The circulating material is heterogeneous and would correspond in molecular size to pancreatic glucagon and a larger molecular weight glucagon precursor. The lack of a consistent response to arginine and predominance of 9000–10,000 molecular weight material could be due to chronic hyperstimulation of true A cells situated in the upper gastrointestinal tract or other extrapancreatic sites; on the other hand, these results could suggest that the cell of origin of extrapancreatic IRG is distinct from the A cell. A major role for extrapancreatic glucagon in the hyperglycemia of diabetes is not evident in these studies, though hepatic glycogen depletion and a reduced rate of peripheral glucose utilization in the operated animals may have reduced the impact on blood glucose levels of changes in IRG. It is possible that extrapancreatic IRG contributes to the poor response to exogenous insulin and glucagon seen in untreated pancreatectomized animals." @default.
