Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the key factors influencing insulin sensitivity in type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and maturity onset diabetes of the young, type 2 (MODY2).

Our study tests the hypothesis that decreased insulin sensitivity is primarily driven by chronically elevated insulin levels in the blood rather than chronic elevations in blood sugar.

Conditions

  • Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
  • Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young, Type 2
  • MODY2
  • Insulin Resistance

Interventions

DRUG

Hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp

Participants will undergo an 8-hour hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp to quantify insulin sensitivity at whole-body and tissue-specific levels. The following hormones will be infused in the study: * insulin (12 mU/m\^2/min \[3x basal\] for 150 minutes, then 40 mU/m\^2/min \[10x basal\] for 180 minutes) * glucagon (0.65 ng/kg/min \[1x basal\] for 330 minutes) * somatostatin (60 ng/kg/min) These infusions will maintain a basal glucagon level and an increased insulin level in the blood that will be equal between all 3 cohorts.

DRUG

20% dextrose

A variable infusion of 20% dextrose will be used to maintain plasma glucose within the euglycemic range throughout the hyperinsulinemic portion of the clamp. 6,6-H2 glucose will be infused at a low rate (0.033-0.22 µmol/kg/min) to determine glucose flux during the study.
