Abstrakt: Insulin is a key regulator of amino acid metabolism. Many plasma amino acids, including lysine and its metabolite, α-aminoadipic acid (α-AA), a predictor for developing diabetes, are elevated in insulin resistance (IR). In 18 overweight women with IR and polycystic ovary syndrome compared with 12 lean control women, high physiological insulin during a euglycemic clamp failed to normalize many elevated amino acid metabolites, including branched-chain and aromatic amino acids, α-aminobutyric acid, and lysine, but normalized α-AA. To understand the underpinnings of differential responses of lysine and its metabolic product α-AA to high physiological insulin in IR compared with control participants, we developed a kinetic model using [α-15N1]-lysine and [13C1]-α-AA as tracers and measured the two tracers simultaneously in α-AA by innovative mass spectrometry. High insulin increased lysine conversion to α-AA in the IR and control groups but failed to normalize plasma lysine concentrations in IR due to a decrease in lysine metabolic clearance rate (MCR). In contrast, despite higher conversion rates of lysine to α-AA by high insulin, α-AA concentration decreased in IR because of the sustained greater MCR of α-AA. The abnormal amino acids and metabolites, even while on high physiological insulin, could potentially explain many functional derangements in IR.
