ABSTRACT Conflicting reports exist regarding the effects of obesity and diabetes on pancreatic alpha-cell function. For this reason plasma glucagon was measured in obese and lean nondiabetic and diabetic women during 30-min intravenous infusions of arginine (1.0 g/min) and glucose (1.5 g/min) and after a 400 g lean beef meal. Basal levels of glucagon were comparable in lean and obese nondiabetic groups, suppressed significantly during glucose infusions and rose to similar peak values after oral protein meals. Fasting glucagon concentrations in diabetic women were 20% higher than control levels despite fasting hyperglycemia and did not suppress after glucose administration. Glucagon responses to oral protein resembled those of nondiabetic subjects, although concentrations were higher throughout the procedure in association with abnormally elevated plasma glucose curves. Paradoxically, arginine infusions elicited greatly augmented increments of glucagon in nondiabetic obese women as well as in both groups o...
