Antecedent hypoglycemic episodes reduce the counterregulatory neuroendocrine response to hypoglycemia. The role of insulin in the mechanism responsible for the antecedent hypoglycemia causing subsequent counterregulatory failure has not been elucidated. We performed antecedent hypoglycemic clamps (56 mg/dL) lasting 2 h with differing degrees of hyperinsulinemia, which were followed by 6-h stepwise hypoglycemic clamps (76–66–56–46 mg/dL) on the next day. Experiments were carried out in 30 young, healthy men. Fifteen of these subjects were tested on 2 occasions. On 1 occasion the antecedent hypoglycemia was induced by insulin infusion at a rate of 1.5 mU/min·kg (low insulin-ante-hypo); on the other occasion the insulin infusion rate was 15.0 mU/min·kg (high insulin-ante-hypo). Both sessions were separated by at least 4 weeks, and their order was balanced across subjects. The remaining 15 subjects (control group) received the same stepwise hypoglycemic clamp as the other subjects, but without antecedent hypoglycemia. During the stepwise hypoglycemic clamp, the counterregulatory increases in ACTH, cortisol, and norepinephrine were significantly blunted after the low insulin-ante-hypo (P < 0.01, P< 0.05, and P < 0.05, respectively) but not after the high insulin-ante-hypo (P = 0.12, P = 0.92, and P = 0.19, respectively) compared to that in the control group. The cortisol, norepinephrine, and glucagon responses were greater after the high than after the low insulin-ante-hypo (all P < 0.05). In conclusion, the present study clearly demonstrates that even a single episode of mild hypoglycemia reduces neuroendocrine counterregulation 18–24 h later. Insulin has a moderate protective effect on subsequent counterregulation.

SummaryWe investigated the association between fibrinogen levels and a HaeIII restriction fragment length polymorphism located at −453 bp from the start of transcription of the β fibrinogen gene. 292 healthy men aged 45 to 69 years, recruited from general practices throughout Britain, were studied. None had a history of ischaemic heart disease. 41.1% (120) were smokers and fibrinogen levels were higher in this group. The frequency of the noncutting allele (designated H2) was 0.19 and was the same in smokers and non-smokers. The H2 allele was associated with elevated levels of fibrinogen in both smokers and non-smokers and the effect of genotype was similar in both groups. After smoking, HaeIII genotype was the strongest predictor of fibrinogen levels and explained 3.1% of the variance in fibrinogen levels. These results confirm earlier studies that variation at the fibrinogen locus contributes to the between-individual differences in plasma fibrinogen level.
