We investigated glucose uptake in the non-cyclically perfused rat hindlimb in response to continuous infusion (CI) or bolus injection (BI) of insulin. Ten mM glucose was infused at 3 ml/min, venous glucose was monitored at two minute intervals, and glucose uptake was calculated on the basis of arteriovenous-difference and expressed as micron/min/100 g body wt. Insulin BI given every ten minutes equaled the amount of insulin given by CI for ten minutes. Insulin doses of 1500, 3000, 6000, and 45,000 microU/30 min showed no significant difference between the two modes of delivery in either onset of stimulation or maximal stimulation of glucose uptake. At the lowest insulin dose tested (1500 microU/30 min) neither BI nor CI stimulated glucose uptake above the control of 1.849 micron/min/100 g. A dose response curve for glucose uptake was obtained using insulin boluses ranging from 2000 to 20,000 microU. Insulin uptake by the muscle was always greater when insulin was administered CI. Net disappearance of immunoreactive insulin over the entire 30 minutes of perfusion was 29.4 +/- 2.6% for CI but only 7.1 +/- 1.6% for BI. Thus in the perfused rat hindlimb, stimulation of glucose uptake in skeletal muscle is comparable with BI and CI delivery of insulin but insulin uptake by the muscle is several-fold greater with CI delivery.
