*I. METABOLIC CHANGES IN TYPE-1 DM ( IDDM )

*1. Carbohydrates metabolic changes, that cause hyperglycemia Defect of cells of pancreas, cause absolutely lack of insulin level a). Decrease of glucose transports into the cells that caused by low activity of glucose transporterGlucose transporters

* b). Decrease of glycolysis pathways activity, that caused by low activity of three kinds of glycolytic enzymes : - glucokinase /Hexokinase - Phosphofructokinase - Pyruvate kinase

*

* c). Increase of glycogenolysis pathways activity in the liver, that caused by high activity of phosphorylase enzymes in the liver

Glycogenolysis

Note : Glycogenolysis is glycogen breakdown to form glucose+++

* d). Decrease of glycogenesis pathways activity, that caused by low activity of glycogen synthase enzymes

*

* e). Increase of gluconeogenesis pathways activity, that caused by high activity of four kinds of gluconeo- neogenetic enzymes : - Glucose-6 phosphatase - Fructose-1,6 biphosphatase - PEP carboxykinase - Pyruvate carboxylase

Note : Gluconeogenesis is glucose synthesis from non carbo- hydrate substrates ( lactic acids, glucogenic amino acids, glycerols and propionic acids ).

* f). Decrease of TCC activity, may be caused by decrease of citrate synthase enzyme activity, or lack of oxaloacetate

*

*Decrease of citrate synthase enzymes activity or lack of oxaloacetate cause acetyl CoA can not be oxidized in TCC ( decrease of TCC activity ) in Diabetes Mellitus.

Note : TCC ( Tricarboxylic acid cycle ) is oxidation of acetyl CoA to form CO2, H2O and energy ATP.

*2. Lipids metabolic changes, that cause keto acidosis, hyper- triglyceridemias and hypercholesterolemias * Energy production failure from carbohydrates ( glucoses ) metabolism cause increase of lipolysis from adipose tissues

Insulin

Hormon sensitive lipase * Triglycerides Free fatty acids

Glycerols

*Increase of hormon sensitive lipase enzymes activity in IDDM, cause increase of lipolysis from adipose tissues and high blood level of free fatty acids and would be taken by the tissues to be oxidized ( oxidation ).

*FFA oxidation Acetyl CoA TCC Hydroxy Methyl Glutaryl CoA ( HMG CoA )

*3. Amino acids metabolic change Amino acids ( glucogenic a.a. ) from diet ( intestine ) and from proteolysis of protein in the muscle, enter gluconeo- genesis pathways in the liver to maintain blood glucose concentration.

*II. METABOLIC CHANGES IN TYPE-2 DM ( NIDDM )

*CARBOHYDRATE METABOLIC CHANGES

Insulin level may be normal or slight increase, but there is insulin resistance.The insulin receptors can not fully respond to insulin, so glucose transporters become inactive. Glucoses can not enter into the cells of the tissues especially muscle tissues and cause hyperglycemia.Insulin resistance is induced by tumor necrosis factor ( TNF ) and a new protein called resistin that produced by adipose tissues.

*Lipid Metabolic Changes

* Lipoprotein lipase enzymes that stimulated by insulin, also in active, so TAG content of VLDL and chylomicrons can not split into free fatty acid ( FFA ) and glycerols and cause hypertriglyceridemia.* Increase of VLDL production in the liver is induced by hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia.* Ketoacidosis rarely develop, because the cells of adipose tissues still sensitive to the insulin effect on lipolysis (insulin inhibits lipolysis pathways in adipose tissues ).

* Glucagon Insulin epinephrin etc

Adenylate cyclase Phosphodiesterase ATP cAMP 5 AMP

*III. DIABETES MELLITUS AND PREGNANCY

1. Metabolic Changes in Normal Pregnant Woman

PathophysiologyNormal pregnancy is characterized by: Mild fasting hypoglycemiaPostprandial hyperglycemiaHyperinsulinemiaDue to peripheral insulin resistance which ensures an adequate supply of glucose for the baby.

PathophysiologyHuman Placental Lactogen (HPL)Produced by syncytiotrophoblasts of placenta.Acts to promote lipolysis increased FFA and to decrease maternal glucose uptake and gluconeogenesis. Anti-insulinEstrogen and ProgesteroneInterfere with insulin-glucose relationship.InsulinasePlacental product that may play a minor role.

** Two reasons that cause metabolic changes in pregnant woman a). Changes of hormonal level in pregnancy especially estrogen and progesteron that stimulate insulin resistance b). Fetal needs for energy and synthesis especially from glucose, and amino acids that cause maternal hypoglycemia, also lactate, free fatty acids and keton bodies* Maternal LDL-cholesterol is precursor for placental steroids synthesis ( estrogen and progesteron )* Placenta also produce placental lactogen hormon ( peptide ) that stimulates lipolysis in adipose tissues* After feeding, pregnant woman falls to fasting state rapidly caused by increase of glucose and amino acid consumption by the fetus

** Blood glucose, amino acids & insulin level falls rapidly, and on the other hand glucagon and placental lactogen increase that cause increase of lipolysis and ketogenesis pathways* Changes of steroid hormons and fuels cause very difficult to control blood glucose in diabetic pregnant woman

*2. Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

* A normal woman before pregnant, can develop Diabetes mellitus when she is pregnant, its called gestational DM* Usually she has a diabetic gene that inherited from her parents* Exessive feeding in pregnancy cause excessive increase of body weight and increase of tumor necrosis factor (TNF ), and a new protein called resistin* TNF , resistin, estrogen and progesteron, induce insulin resistance to develop Diabetes mellitus in pregnant woman (gestational DM)

** Gestational DM are generally reversible after pregnancy, approximately 30 50% of woman with a history of GDM go on to develop type-2 DM later in life, particularly if they are obese. Although the cellular mechanisms responsible for the insulin resistance in GDM are not fully understood.

*3. Diabetes Mellitus that Super Imposed with Pregnancy

* Diabetic pregnant woman, cause very difficult to control blood glucose concentration* High level of estrogen and progesteron will increase insulin resistance and cause more severe DM in diabetic pregnant woman * Maternal hyperglycemia, cause hyperglycemia in the fetus that transferred via fetal cord* Fetal hyperglycemia, stimulate fetal hyperinsulinemia that stimulate synthesis of triglyceride in adipose tissues of the fetus and the fetus become bigger* Insulin like growth factors ( IGF ) also increase in the fetus so the fetus not only bigger, but also longer. If the fetus weight more than 4,00 kg, it is called giant baby

** When the giant baby is born, fetal cord is cutted, fetal blood glucose level decrease rapidly, cause babys hypoglycemia, because there is no glucose supply from maternal blood, but hyperinsulinemia still occur in the baby* Glucose infuse or lactation must be given as soon as possible to increase babys blood glucose
