Blood Glucose Concentration
Fasting blood glucose (8-12 hrs)
70-110 mg/dL
It rises to 140 mg/dl after meal
(post prandial).
![Page 3: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The concentration of blood glucose level is
maintained constant by
the action of two general opposing factors:
The rate of glucose enterance to the blood
Rate of removal of blood glucose
Regulation of blood glucose

Several factors are important for regulating blood
glucose level:
I. Regulation by different
tissues and organs
Liver and Extrahepatic tissue
(Kidney, Gastrointestinal tract,
Skeletal muscle, adipose tissue)
II. Hormones
Regulation of Blood Glucose
![Page 6: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
It controls the rate of glucose absorption
It protects the body from sudden and
excessive increase in blood glucose
by different ways:
Gastrointestinal tract
![Page 7: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The gradual evacuation of gastric contents
allows good time for absorption and
utilization of glucose.
![Page 8: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The secretion of gastro-intestinal
hormones, stimulate insulin secretion by
B-cells of pancrease.
Insulin is secreted to portal blood before
absorption of glucose, So, Glucose given
orally stimulates more insulin than
intravenous glucose.
![Page 9: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Glucose uptake by different
tissues
This is mediated through different
protein transporter (GLUT4) which is
insulin dependent in skeletal
muscles, heart and adipose tissues.
![Page 10: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Liver
The liver is the main organ responsible for
glucose homeostatic mechanisms.
The uptake or output of glucose by liver cells is
directly related to blood glucose level.
![Page 11: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Glucose is only metabolized in liver
cells when its level in blood is
increased.
Due to low affinity of glucokinase to
glucose, and its induction by insulin.
![Page 12: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If blood glucose level decreases, the liver controls
this drop and increases it
The reverse occurs
If blood glucose level increases, the liver
controls this elevation and decreases it through:
Oxidation of glucose.
Glycogenesis. Glycogenolysis.
Lipogenesis. Gluconeogenesis.
![Page 13: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
All glucose in blood is filtered through the kidneys, it
then completely returns to the blood by tubular
reabsorption.
So, Normally urine is free from Glucose

Renal threshold
˃ 180 mg/dL
![Page 15: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Renal threshold: it is the maximum rate of
reabsorption of glucose by the renal tubules.
Normally the renal threshold for glucose is 180
mg/dL.
If blood glucose exceeds a certain limit (renal
threshold) or if the renal threshold is
abnormally low (renal glucosuria), it will
pass in urine causing glucosuria.

During fasting,
The muscles can oxidize fatty acids and
ketone bodies instead of glucose for
production of energy.

hypoglycaemiaoDrug-induced, due to insulin, oral hypoglycaemic
agents (e.g. tolbutamide), also to dietary constituents e.g.
alcohol, L-leucine.
oEssential reactive hypoglycaemia, in which
symptoms occur 2-4 hr after a meal, probably due to an
exaggeration of the normal insulin response to carbohydrate
ingestion.
oGalactosaemia.
oHyereditary fructose intolerance.

Glucosuria
Def.
Presence of detectable amounts of glucose
in urine (>30 mg/dL).
Causes:
A. Hyperglycemic glocusuria
B. Normoglycemic or renal glucosuria
![Page 35: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Hyperglycemic Glucosuria
Blood glucose exceeds the renal threshold (180mg/dL).
It is caused by:
1. Diabetes mellitus.
2. Emotional or stress glucosuria
(epinephrine glucosuria)
1. Alimentary glucosuria;
It is due to increased rate of glucose absorption as in cases of
gastrectomy or gastrojejunostomy.
![Page 36: Blood Glucose Homeostasis€¦ · Glucose Homeostasis Author: S Created Date: 1/2/2016 11:25:57 AM ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042812/5fa9a27261264c6b480291d5/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Normoglycemic = renal glucosuria
1. Congenital renal glucosuria: due to congenital
defect in renal tubular reabsorption of glucose.
2. Acquired renal disease (e.g. nephritis).
3. Pregnancy: due to decreased carbohydrate tolerance
and renal threshold in the later months of pregnancy.
4. Injection of phlorhizin due to inhibition of the
(SGLUT) in renal tubules.
