Conclusions
• In the postprandial phase large VLDL are increased in the insulin resistant conditions of obesity with and without diabetes. This increase is therefore likely related to insulin resistance.
• Diabetes per se, independently of obesity and insulin resistance, also shows an increased postprandial chylomicron response.
• The increased postprandial chylomicrons could be the consequence of the reduced adipose tissue LPL activity observed in the diabetic patients.

Possible mechanisms of postprandial TRL abnormalities in type 2 diabetes
• Slower lipolysis for the competition betweenchylomicrons and hepatic VLDL (↓ insulinsuppression of VLDL secretion and/or ↑chylomicron secretion)
• ↓ LPL activity
• ↓ hepatic clearance of remnants

Background
• Postprandial lipoprotein abnormalities are more frequent in type 2 diabetes
• In type 2 diabetes these abnormalities are- observed in the presence of normal fasting
triglyceridemia,- concern lipoproteins of both exogenous and endogenous origin,
- associated with insulin resistance. • It is not clear
- if diabetes per se independently of insulin resistance induces postprandial lipid abnormalities
- the role of adipose tissue, particularly of LPL

Conclusions
• A similar postprandial increase of large VLDL is observed in the insulin resistant conditions of obesity with and without diabetes and is therefore likely related to insulin resistance.
• Diabetes per se, independently of obesity and insulin resistance, also shows an increased postprandial chylomicron response.
• The increased postprandial chylomicrons could be the consequence of the reduced adipose tissue LPL activity observed in the diabetic patients.

Aims of the study
To evaluate postprandial lipemia and the role of adipose tissue LPL in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes
compared with
- non diabetic subjects similar for degree of obesity and normal fasting triglyceride levels, and
- non diabetic normal weight controls.
41st EASD Annual Meeting, Athens
Abnormal postprandial chylomicron response and decreased adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase activity in type 2 diabetes are independent of
insulin resistance

• Postprandial lipoprotein abnormalities are more frequent in type 2 diabetes
• In type 2 diabetes these abnormalities- are observed in the presence of normal fastingtriglyceridemia,- concern lipoproteins of both exogenous andendogenous origin,- are associated with insulin resistance.
• It is not clear - if diabetes per se independently of insulin resistance
induces postprandial lipid abnormalities- the role of adipose tissue, particularly of LPL

Experimental procedures
• Test meal(potato gateau: 944 kcal, 57% fat, 31% CHO, 12% protein)0-6 hrs serial plasma samples for cholesterol, triglyceride, apo B48,apo B100 in lipoproteins (chylomicrons, VLDL Sf 60-400, VLDL SF 20-60, IDL, LDL, HDL)
• Abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue needle biopsySix hrs after meal and, on a different day, in the fasting condition.
• Hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp2 hrs insulin infusion: 1.5 mU / kg b.w. / min
