Critical evaluation of the combined model approach for estimation of prehepatic insulin secretion.

چکیده
The combined model approach uses kinetic analysis of both plasma insulin and C-peptide dynamics to estimate prehepatic insulin secretion rates and parameters of insulin and C-peptide kinetics. The original model used single-compartment kinetics to describe both insulin and C-peptide despite knowledge that C-peptide follows two-compartment kinetics. The performance of the model under rapidly changing secretory conditions has come into question. Thus a more complex combined model is introduced, incorporating two-compartmental C-peptide disappearance. The addition of two-compartment C-peptide kinetics required a novel numerical approach to allow estimation of model parameters. This simulation study was undertaken to 1) compare the performance of the original combined model and 2) examine the numerical method used to identify parameters for the extended combined model with two-compartment C-peptide kinetics under simulated conditions of rapidly changing insulin and C-peptide. Monte Carlo simulation revealed that the original combined model does not provide accurate estimates of prehepatic insulin secretion under rapid kinetics. However, the extended combined model provides accurate reconstruction of prehepatic insulin secretory profile without separate quantification of C-peptide kinetics.

A Bayesian approach to estimating the prehepatic insulin secretion rate
SUMMARY The prehepatic insulin secretion rate of the pancreatic β-cells is not directly measurable, since part of the secreted insulin is absorbed by the liver prior to entering the blood stream. However, C-peptide is co-secreted equimolarly and is not absorbed by the liver, allowing for the estimation of the prehepatic insulin secretion rate. We consider a stochastic differential equation mode...

The implication of beta-cell failure as an early defect in type 2 diabetes exacerbates the need for accurate but facile assessment of islet cell secretory rate, particularly in large group studies in which individual assessment of C-peptide kinetics is impractical. This study was designed to examine whether it is possible to obtain accurate secretory rates from the extended combined model, whic...

To directly evaluate prehepatic secretion of pancreatic hormones during a 3-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), we measured insulin and C-peptide in six healthy control, six obese, and six type 2 diabetic subjects in the femoral artery and hepatic vein by means of the hepatic catheterization technique. Hypersecretion in obesity was confirmed (309 +/- 66 nmol in obese vs. 117 +/- 22 in control...

To detect and understand the changes in beta-cell function in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes, an accurate and precise estimation of prehepatic insulin secretion rate (ISR) is essential. There are two common methods to assess ISR, the deconvolution method (by Eaton and Polonsky)-considered the "gold standard"-and the combined model (by Vølund et al.). The deconvolution method is a 2-day met...

The body compensates for early-stage insulin resistance by increasing insulin secretion. A reliable and easy-to-use mathematical assessment of insulin secretion and disposal could be a valuable tool for identifying patients at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes. Because the pathophysiology of insulin resistance is incompletely understood, assessing insulin metabolism with minimal assum...
