Increased glucose cycling between glucose and glucose-6-phosphate is characteristic of insulin resistance and hyperglycemia seen with Type II diabetes. Traditionally, glucose cycling is determined by the difference between hepatic glucose output measured with separate [2-3H]glucose and [6-3H]glucose infusions. We demonstrate a novel method for determining hepatic glucose recycling from an intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT). A single tracer, [1, 2-13C(2)]glucose (a M2 glucose isotopomer), was administered at 1mg/g body weight to 4-month-old C57BL/6 mice. Hepatic glucose recycling was monitored by the appearance of a plasma M1 isotopomer of glucose, which is produced by the action of the pentose cycle on the M2 glucose isotopomer in the liver. The initial M2 enrichment was 56% and decreased to 13% at the end of 3 h, and the M1 enrichment peaked at 2 h. The ratio of plasma M1/M2 glucose increased linearly with time to approximately 25%, and the regression of the M1/M2 ratio against time gives a slope, termed the in vivo glucose-dependent futile recycling rate constant k(HR). k(HR) estimates glucose/glucose-6-phosphate futile cycling, along with glucose recycling through the pentose cycle. These observations demonstrate complex substrate cycling during an IPGTT using a single stable isotope tracer.
