Introduction
•Diabetes is a group of metabolic disorders, resulting in hyperglycemia, due to defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.•Diabetes Mellitus = DM = Diabetes•Diabetes = siphon (Greek) = a lot of urine is made•Mellitus = mel (Latin) = honey = the urine is sweet

Normal State
• Insulin and glucagon are two peptide hormones produced by the pancreas that regulate blood sugar level, homeostasis.•Homeostasis: body’s tendency to maintain relatively constant internal conditions.
![Page 8: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pancreas
• Pancreas has alpha cells () and beta cells (). Together they form Islets of Langerhans.
• Insulin is secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas, and glucagon is secreted by the alpha cells.
![Page 9: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Homeostasis
• Insulin lowers down the blood sugar level when it is high (after meals), and glucagon rises the level when it is low (before meals).• Insulin takes the excess sugar into cells for energy or to the liver for storage.•Glucagon takes sugar from the liver and put it back to the blood.• As a result, the blood glucose level is kept nearly constant.
![Page 10: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What happens to food after eating?
•During and immediately after a meal, digestion breaks carbohydrates down into sugar molecules, especially glucose.
• If fuel is to cars, glucose is to cells.• Cells need glucose to generate energy in the form of ATP, cellular respiration.
![Page 11: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What happens to glucose?
• In the intestine, glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream via SGLT1 (secondary active transport) and GLUT2 (facilitated
diffusion) transmembrane proteins.
• The blood glucose level rises.
![Page 12: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How is insulin released?
![Page 13: Diabetes Mellitus at a Molecular Level](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032505/55c626e4bb61eb19108b460a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How is insulin released?
• Glucose enters beta cells of the pancreas by facilitated diffusion through the GLUT2 transmembrane proteins, down its concentration gradient.• Through cellular respiration, ATP is
generated from the glucose.• Rise in ATP closes the ATP-sensitive K+
channels, leading to depolarization.• Depolarization opens the voltage-
dependent Ca2+ channels, leading to entry of Ca2+ ions into the cell.• This causes vesicles containing insulin to
move to and fuse with the cell membrane and release insulin by exocytosis.

Why is insulin important?
•Most cells in the body are strongly influenced by insulin.• These cells don’t have GLUT2 on their membranes, so they can’t receive glucose directly.• Instead, They have GLUT4 which is another type of glucose-transporting protein.•GLUT4 can’t take glucose into the cell on its own. It requires a mechanism in which insulin plays an important role.

Action of Insulin
• ENPP1 (insulin receptor protein) receives insulin on the cell membrane and puts it into the cell.• IRS protein takes the insulin from ENPP1 and phosphorylates it.•GLUT4 receives glucose and puts it into the cell after it has bound the phosphorylated insulin.•Glucose is either used for energy through cellular respiration in the mitochondria, or stored as glycogen.

Kidneys
• In the S1 segment of the nephrons, SGLT2 reabsorbs 90% of all filtered glucose.• In the S3 segment of the nephrons, SGLT1 reabsorbs the remaining filtered glucose.

Diabetes
• In diabetes, the body is unable to maintain homeostasis of blood glucose levels. Glucose doesn’t enter cells, resulting in hyperglycemia.• Type 1 diabetes is characterized by the loss or decreased production of insulin hormone, insulin-dependent.• Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insensitivity to insulin (insulin resistance), non-insulin-dependent.
