Ketone bodies and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) inhibit insulin stimulated glucose uptake in muscle in-vitro. In man the infusion of ketone bodies lowers plasma NEFA levels thus confounding the interpretation of individual effects. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ketone bodies on insulin mediated forearm glucose metabolism independent of the changes in the plasma NEFA levels. Seven healthy men received sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate (15 mumol kg-1 min-1) or sodium bicarbonate (control) for 240 min. Heparin (0.2 U kg-1 min-1) and insulin (0.01 U kg-1 h-1) were infused for 90 min (pre-clamp), followed by insulin alone (0.025 U kg-1 h-1) and euglycaemia was maintained (clamp). Plasma NEFA levels and rates of forearm NEFA uptake (+23 +/- 14 and +49 +/- 21 [mean +/- SEM] nmol 100 ml forearm [FA]-1 min-1) were comparable during the pre-clamp periods, and were suppressed equally during hyperinsulinaemia. Sodium 3-hydroxybutyrate infusion raised the blood ketone body levels from 70 +/- 4 mumol/l to a plateau of 450 +/- 30 mumol/l, while control levels declined from baseline (ketone body vs control; P less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
