DIABETES MELLITUS

a state in which carbohydrate and lipidmetabolism is improperly regulated byinsulin

TYPE I : patients are completely insulin dependent

5-10 % of cases

TYPE II : defect in insulin action and secretion

remaining cases

frequently called NIDDM: non insulin-dep. diabetes mellitus

~ 230 million cases world wide

will double by 2030 (!)

New drugs for an old diseases: allosteric intervention

Idea: Can a drug be developed that allosterically activates liver-specific hexokinase (aka glucokinase)?

Glucokinase activator works in vivo, orally

The BMI: body mass index

http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/calc-bmi.htm

A crude but easy-to-calculateindicator of body mass that is a useful indicator of obesity inpopulations

BMI = body weight/height2

In kg/mt2

BMI calculator:

Women: RR is 18.1 for BMI ≥ 31 Men: RR is 50.7 for BMI ≥ 35

• WHO estimates BMI < 25 would prevent 64% of Type 2 DM in US men and 74% in US women.

• Framingham study estimates BMI < 25 would reduce coronary heart disease by 25% and strokes and congestive heart failure by 35%.

The Obesity Scare?

Richard Bermancorporate lawyerfood executivelobbyist

“ but they never dreamt thatanyone would attempt to controlwhat we eat and drink.”

“One of the myths of the modern world is that health is largely determined by individual choice.”

— Barry R. Bloom (2000)Dean, Harvard School ofPublic Health

We eat a CRAPLOAD of sugar…

If sugar is bad, is itFRUCTOSE orAMOUNT…?

Watch “Sugar the Bitter Truth”

Genetics and obesity: the Pima people

average adult onset diabetes in USA~ 6-8%

Pima of S.W. USA (Pima people) ~ 50%

95% of Pima with NIDDM are obese

What are the underlying causes of this difference?

The THRIFTY GENE model

What are the genes and environmental factors

Poor name: almost certainly multiple genes

Incredibly important resource



It is believed that the obesity and diabetes observed in the Pima is due to a genetic propensity to respond poorly to the typical INDUSTRALIZED WESTERN diet.

NEAT: Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis

The majority of our activity-caused calorieuse is not by exercise, but from NEAT


NEAT varies substantially among individuals

Question: Could natural variations in NEAT contribute to obesity in people?

James A. Levine, M.D.Mayo Clinic, Rochester MN


“To compare body posture and bodymotion in lean and obese people, werecruited 20 healthy volunteers whowere self-proclaimed “couch potatoes”

“Interindividual variation in posture allocation: possible role in human obesity” Levine et al., Science (2005) 307 530-1

BMI lean: 23 +/- 2BMI obese: 33 +/- 2


BMI 23 BMI 33

Role of NEAT in human obesity

25 milllion data points collected on BMI 23 and33 groups to evaluate NEAT

“Interindividual variation in posture allocation: possible role in human obesity” Levine et al., Science (2005) 307 530-1

A correlation: the chicken-egg problem...

“To investigate whether there differencesin posture allocation are a cause or a consequence of obesity, we asked 7 ofthe original volunteers to undergo super-vised weight loss over a period of 8 weeks.The average wt. loss was 8 kg. Likewise,we recruited 9 of the orginal lean volun-teers and one additional volunteer to undergo supervised overfeeding for aperiod of 8 weeks. The average wt. gainwas 4 kg.”

When BMIs are switched and groups retested


Obese group still has low NEAT after BMI drop

Lean group still has higherNEAT after BMI increase
