AIMS: The effect of metabolic control on hepatic synthesis of plasma proteins in Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), in the post-absorptive and post-prandial state, is not known. METHODS: We measured fractional synthetic rates (FSR) of albumin and fibrinogen in six insulin-infused T1DM patients and in five to nine control subjects, before and for approx. 4 h after a mixed liquid meal. Phenylalanine tracer precursor/product relationships and steady-state conditions were used. In the post-absorptive state, patients were studied in near euglycaemic conditions after an overnight intravenous insulin infusion. During the meal (approx. 11 kcal/kg), the insulin infusion rate was increased to maintain plasma glucose concentrations below approx. 10 mmol/l. RESULTS: Post-absorptive FSR of albumin (5.7 +/- 0.6%/day) and fibrinogen (11.3 +/- 0.6%/day) in T1DM were similar to control values (6.4 +/- 0.9 and 13.1 +/- 1.1, respectively). After the meal, albumin FSR increased (P = 0.0032 by anova) in both groups (T1DM, to 14.4 +/- 2.7%/day; controls, to 18.2 +/- 3.7%/day). Fibrinogen FSR also increased (P = 0.0048 by anova) in both the T1DM (to 18.2 +/- 2.6) and the control subjects (to 27.3 +/- 6.2). There was no difference between T1DM and control subjects in the post-prandial FSR of both proteins. CONCLUSIONS: Albumin and fibrinogen FSR in T1DM can be maintained within near-normal ranges by insulin infusion under post-absorptive and post-prandial conditions. |
