Context: Recently we showed that a 10-sec maximal sprint effort performed before or after moderate intensity exercise can prevent early hypoglycemia during recovery in individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, the mechanisms underlying this protective effect of sprinting are still unknown. Objective: The objective of the study was to test the hypothesis that short duration sprinting increases blood glucose levels via a disproportionate increase in glucose rate of appearance (Ra) relative to glucose rate of disappearance (Rd). Subjects and Experimental Design: Eight T1DM participants were subjected to a euglycemic-euinsulinemic clamp and, together with nondiabetic participants, were infused with [6,6-2H]glucose before sprinting for 10 sec and allowed to recover for 2 h. Results: In response to sprinting, blood glucose levels increased by 1.2 ± 0.2 mmol/liter (P < 0.05) within 30 min of recovery in T1DM participants and remained stable afterward, whereas glycemia rose by only 0.40 ± 0.05 mmol/liter in the nondiabetic group. During recovery, glucose Ra did not change in both groups (P > 0.05), but glucose Rd in the nondiabetic and diabetic participants fell rapidly after exercise before returning within 30 min to preexercise levels. After sprinting, the levels of plasma epinephrine, norepinephrine, and GH rose transiently in both experimental groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: A sprint as short as 10 sec can increase plasma glucose levels in nondiabetic and T1DM individuals, with this rise resulting from a transient decline in glucose Rd rather than from a disproportionate rise in glucose Ra relative to glucose Rd as reported with intense aerobic exercise.

Background: In contrast to type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) requires insulin treatment to control blood glucose. As the incidence and prevalence of T1DM have steadily increased; therefore, T1DM is increasingly being diagnosed not only in children and adolescents, but also in adults. Therefore, the importance of accurate diagnosis and optimal management of T1DM is being recognized in clinical practice.Current Concepts: T1DM is caused by insulin deficiency, following the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic <i>β</i>-cells. Diagnosis of diabetes is based on the following criteria: fasting blood glucose levels ≥126 mg/dL, random blood glucose levels ≥200 mg/dL accompanied by symptoms of hyperglycemia, an abnormal 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test, or glycated hemoglobin ≥6.5%. Accurate diagnosis of T1DM based on patients’ clinical characteristics, serum C-peptide levels, and detection of autoantibodies against <i>β</i>-cell autoantigens is important for optimum care and to avoid complications. A target glycated hemoglobin level is recommended in children, adolescents, and young adults with access to comprehensive care. The availability of insulin analogues and mechanical technologies (insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors) has improved the management of T1DM, and these are useful for the prevention of microvascular complications. Screening for microvascular complications should commence at puberty or 5 years after diagnosis of T1DM.Discussion and Conclusion: Effective cooperation and coordination between patient, parents, and healthcare providers are necessary to achieve a successful transition from pediatric to adult care in patients with T1DM. Diabetic management for T1DM should be individualized based on patients’ lifestyle, as well as psychosocial, and medical circumstances.

Diabetes affects over 350 million people worldwide, with the figure projected to rise to nearly 500 million over the next 20 years, according to the World Health Organization. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type 1 diabetes) is an endocrine disorder caused by an autoimmune reaction that destroys insulin-producing -cells in the pancreas, which leads to insulin deficiency. Administration of exogenous insulin remains at the moment the treatment mainstay. This approach helps to regulate blood glucose levels and significantly increases the life expectancy of patients. However, type 1 diabetes is accompanied by long-term complications associated with the systemic nature of the disease and metabolic abnormalities having a profound impact on health. Of greater impact would be a therapeutic approach which would overcome these limitations by better control of blood glucose levels and prevention of acute and chronic complications. The current efforts in the field of regenerative medicine are aimed at finding such an approach. In this review, we discuss the time-honored technique of donor islets of Langerhans transplantation. We also focus on the use of pluripotent stem and committed cells and cellular reprogramming. The molecular mechanisms of pancreatic differentiation are highlighted. Much attention is devoted to the methods of grafts delivery and to the materials used during its creation.
