Increased Lipolysis, Diminished Adipose Tissue Insulin Sensitivity, and Impaired β-Cell Function Relative to Adipose Tissue Insulin Sensitivity in Obese Youth With Impaired Glucose Tolerance.

ABSTRACT: Despite evidence of insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction in glucose metabolism in youth with prediabetes, the relationship between adipose tissue insulin sensitivity (ATIS) and β-cell function remains unknown. We investigated whole-body lipolysis, ATIS, and β-cell function relative to ATIS (adipose disposition index [DI]) in obese youth with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) versus normal glucose tolerance (NGT). Whole-body lipolysis (glycerol appearance rate [GlyRa], [²H₅]glycerol at baseline and during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp), lipid oxidation (indirect calorimetry), insulin secretion (2-h hyperglycemic clamp), and body composition (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) were examined. Adipose DI was calculated as ATIS: (1/GlyRa × fasting insulin) × first
