The study was aimed at the evaluation of functional condition of pancreatic islet apparatus in patients with Cushing's disease who underwent adrenal microsurgical transplantation after bilateral adrenalectomy. The examination of 19 patients included immunological tests as well as calculation of insulin level increase, insulin ejection rate and insulin level excess over the baseline after glucose loading. The results suggest that patients with Cushing's disease in active stage reveal increased sensitivity to glucose and functional capacity of pancreatic beta-cells. After unilateral adrenalectomy insulin base level was observed to fall while increased beta-cells responsiveness to glucose remained unchanged. At the same time adrenal autotransplantation on the vascular stem in patients with the Cushing's disease resulted not only in normalization of insulin base level but also in the improvement of the functional indices of the islet cells. |
