1951-P: Glucose Effectiveness Fails to Compensate for Insulin Resistance after Fat Feeding in Dogs

Glucose homeostasis involves actions of both insulin and glucose per se (“glucose effectiveness, SG”). While consumption of a high fat diet typically induces insulin resistance, it is unclear whether SG is altered by fat feeding. We quantified SG from the intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT; n=36) or hyperglycemic clamp at basal insulin (HGC; n=5) in dogs, tested before and after 6 weeks fat feeding (+ 6 g/kg per day). SG from IVGTTs were...
