Resistance to the glucoregulatory action of insulin is a common finding in obesity and may affect thermogenesis. In 13 healthy subjects, we studied the influence of acute insulin resistance induced by a lipid infusion on thermogenesis without any glucose load (n = 4) or during a euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp (n = 5) and an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT, n = 8). When substrates were not administered at the same time, the energy cost of storage was significantly (P < .05) lower for lipids (3.9%+/-0.9%) than for glucose (11.9%+/-0.5% during the clamp and 14.9%+/-4.0% during the OGTT, NS). The lipid infusion decreased glucose storage during the clamp (control, 3.99+/-0.40 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1); lipid infusion, 0.92+/-0.39; P < .05) but increased it during the OGTT (control, 1.76+/-0.22 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1); lipid infusion, 2.94+/-0.27; P < .05). Infused lipids were stored more (clamp, 3.31+/-0.16; OGTT, 2.65+/-0.11 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1); P < .01) and oxidized less (clamp, 0.64+/-0.21; OGTT, 1.02+/-0.09 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1); P < .05) during the clamp than during the OGTT. When lipids were infused, the energy cost of substrate storage was lower during the clamp versus the OGTT (clamp, 3.2%+/-0.8%; OGTT, 7.3%+/-1.0%; P < .05). This effect was attributed to a lipid-induced impairment of glucose tolerance, which overcomes the inhibitory effect of lipid infusion on glucose storage observed in euglycemia. A slight elevation of plasma glucose in response to a lipid infusion impairs thermogenesis by redirecting the storage of substrates from lipids to glucose, which has a higher energy cost.
