"Postreceptor" insulin resistance in persons with non-insulin-dependent diabetes (NIDDM) could be due to an intrinsic defect in insulin-sensitive pathways or to the action of a circulating inhibitor. Since evidence for the former is lacking, we have addressed the question of a circulating inhibitor by examining the effect of plasma and plasma extracts from NIDDM subjects on the lipogenic response of rat adipocytes to insulin. A majority (77%) of plasma samples (1:20 dilution) from unselected, treated NIDDM subjects (N = 69) inhibited insulin-stimulated conversion of 3-3H-glucose to 3H-lipid in rat adipocytes to a greater extent than did control samples (N = 24). The mean +/- SD inhibition by NIDDM plasma (81 +/- 21%) was significantly greater (P less than 0.01) than by control plasma (50 +/- 14%). Diabetic and, to a lesser degree, control plasma both caused a significant decrease in the maximal response of lipogenesis to insulin. Inhibitory activity was extracted into acid/ethanol, present in the flow of a Sep-pak C18 column, heat-stable (56 degrees C for 30 min [plasma], 80 degrees C for 30 min [acid/ethanol]), resistant to proteases, and dialyzable through 1000-dalton-mol wt exclusion dialysis tubing. The inhibition by NIDDM plasma or partially purified inhibitor could not be explained by the presence of insulin antibodies, insulin receptor antibodies, other inhibitors of insulin binding, or the concentrations of known counterregulatory factors. There was no correlation between inhibitory activity and plasma glucose (r = 0.26), insulin (r = 0.33), C-peptide (r = 0.26), or HbA1c (r = 0.26).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
