Summary: Insulin plays a crucial role in regulating the metabolism of blood glucose, amino acids (aa), and lipids in humans. However, the mechanisms by which insulin selectively regulates these metabolites are not fully understood. To address this question, we used mathematical modeling to identify the selective regulatory mechanisms of insulin on blood aa and lipids. Our study revealed that insulin negatively regulates the influx and positively regulates the efflux of lipids, consistent with previous findings. By contrast, we did not observe the previously reported insulin’s negative regulation of branched-chain aa (BCAA) influx; instead, we found that insulin positively regulates BCAA efflux. We observed that the earlier peak time of lipids compared to BCAA is dependent on insulin’s negative regulation of their influx. Overall, our findings shed new light on how insulin selectively regulates the levels of different metabolites in human blood, providing insights into the metabolic disorder pathogenesis and potential therapies. |
