Postprandial Duration Influences the Association of Insulin-Related Dietary Indexes and Plasma C-peptide Concentrations in Adult Men and Women.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The dietary insulin index (II) directly quantifies dietary effects on postprandial insulin secretion, whereas the empirical dietary index for hyperinsulinemia (EDIH), based on fasting C-peptide concentrations, is primarily reflective of insulin resistance. How these scores are related to nonfasting C-peptide in cohort studies has not been examined.

Objective

We investigated the extent to which EDIH and II scores predict plasma C-peptide concentrations, in cross-sectional analyses by postprandial duration at blood collection from 1 to ≥15 h.

Methods

Both EDIH and II scores were calculated from food-frequency questionnaire data reported by 3964 men in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (1993-1995) and 6215 women in the Nurses' Health Study (1989-1990) who were not diabetic. We constructed 12 multivariable-adjusted linear regression models separately in men and women, by postprandial duration, to calculate relative differences and absolute values of plasma C-peptide concentrations in dietary index quintiles.

Results

In both men and women, C-peptide concentrations were elevated 1-2 h after eating and declined with increasing postprandial duration. In men, percent differences in C-peptide concentration in the highest compared with lowest dietary index quintile were: EDIH: 0-1 h: 50%; 2 h: 22%; 14 h: 14%; ≥15 h: 30% (all P-trend< 0.05). II: 0-1 h: 19% (P-trend = 0.09); 2 h: 3% (P-trend = 0.09); 14 h: -6% (P-trend = 0.17); ≥15 h: -15% (P-trend = 0.02). Corresponding results among women were: EDIH: 0-1 h: 29% (P-trend = 0.002); 2 h: 33% (P-trend = 0.009); 14 h: 44% (P-trend < 0.0001); ≥15 h: 40% (P-trend < 0.0001). II: 0-1 h: -12% (P-trend = 0.09); 2 h: 17% (P-trend = 0.09); 14 h: -14% (P-trend = 0.009); ≥15 h: -3% (P-trend = 0.37).

Conclusion

The EDIH was superior to the II in predicting both fasting and nonfasting C-peptide concentrations, suggesting that the EDIH may be better in assessing dietary effects of hyperinsulinemia on disease risk in adult men and women.

Project description:Objectives: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a role in cognition and metabolism. Specific nutrients can affect fasting BDNF concentrations, which are potentially mediated by insulin and/or glucose. Since macronutrients trigger each a different insulin and glucose response, we examined postprandial effects of meals rich in fat, carbohydrates, or protein on BDNF concentrations. BDNF was analyzed in serum and plasma, since concentration differences can be found between matrices. Methods: Healthy overweight/obese male participants (n = 18) participated in this randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial consisting of three test days with 1 week wash-out periods. Either a high-fat (En% fat, carbohydrates, protein: 52.3, 39.2, 8.0), high-carbohydrate (En% 9.6, 81.5, 8.6) or high-protein meal (En% 10.6, 51.5, 36.9) was consumed on each test day. BDNF concentrations were measured after 0, 60, and 240 min. Glucose and insulin concentrations were measured after 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, and 240 min. Results: BDNF concentrations were higher in serum compared with plasma (P < 0.001). Postprandial BDNF concentrations in serum decreased significantly after the high-fat (P = 0.013) and high-carbohydrate meals (P = 0.040), and showed a trend after the high-protein meal (P = 0.076). No differences were found between meals (P = 0.66). Postprandial BDNF concentrations measured in plasma did not significantly change after the different meals (P = 0.47). As total area under the curve (AUC) for glucose was significantly higher after the high-carbohydrate meal compared with the high-fat (P = 0.003) and high-protein meals (P < 0.001), and the total AUC for insulin was higher after the high-carbohydrate (P < 0.001) and high-protein meals (P < 0.001) compared with the high-fat meal, it seems that acute changes in glucose and insulin do not affect postprandial BDNF concentrations. However, after the high-protein meal, the higher total AUC for glucose correlated with lower serum BDNF concentrations, and a higher maximal increase in glucose correlated with a lower maximal increase in plasma BDNF concentrations. There were no correlations with insulin concentrations after either meal. Conclusion: Serum BDNF concentrations were higher than plasma concentrations. Since postprandial BDNF responses were not different between the meals, we conclude that there is no role for insulin or glucose in regulating postprandial BDNF concentrations.
