This study found that improvements in glycemic control can normalize intracerebral glucose levels in individuals with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes, suggesting the potential reversibility of cerebral glucose transport capacity and metabolism.
Aims/hypothesis We have previously shown that individuals with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes have a blunted rise in brain glucose levels measured by H-1 magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Here, we investigate whether reductions in HbA(1c) normalise intracerebral glucose levels. Methods Eight individuals (two men, six women) with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes and mean +/- SD age 44.8 +/- 8.3 years, BMI 31.4 +/- 6.1 kg/m(2) and HbA(1c) 84.1 +/- 16.2 mmol/mol (9.8 +/- 1.4%) underwent H-1 MRS scanning at 4 Tesla during a hyperglycaemic clamp (similar to 12.21 mmol/l) to measure changes in cerebral glucose at baseline and after a 12 week intervention that improved glycaemic control through the use of continuous glucose monitoring, diabetes regimen intensification and frequent visits to an endocrinologist and nutritionist. Results Following the intervention, mean +/- SD HbA(1c) decreased by 24.3 +/- 15.3 mmol/mol (2.1 +/- 1.5%) (p=0.006), with minimal weight changes (p=0.242). Using a linear mixed-effects regression model to compare glucose time courses during the clamp pre and post intervention, the pre-intervention brain glucose level during the hyperglycaemic clamp was significantly lower than the post-intervention brain glucose (p<0.001) despite plasma glucose levels during the hyperglycaemic clamp being similar (p=0.266). Furthermore, the increases in brain glucose were correlated with the magnitude of improvement in HbA(1c) (r = 0.71, p=0.048). Conclusion/interpretation These findings highlight the potential reversibility of cerebral glucose transport capacity and metabolism that can occur in individuals with type 2 diabetes following improvement of glycaemic control.
