Objective Because children with congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) caused by recessive loss of function mutations in the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent potassium channel (K-ATP-HI) are not leucine sensitive, we evaluated for protein-induced hypoglycemia with oral protein tolerance tests. Study design Blood glucose and insulin concentrations were measured every 15 minutes for 3 hours after an oral protein load in children with K-ATP-HI (n = 11) and compared with those of children with glutamate dehydrogenase HI (n = 12) and control subjects (n = 12). Results Similar to children with glutamate dehydrogenase HI, patients with k(ATP)-HI displayed protein-induced hypoglycemia (10/11) with blood glucose concentrations declining by 17 to 69 mg/dL. In contrast, oral protein had little effect on blood glucose concentrations in control subjects. Conclusions Protein-induced hypoglycemia is a feature of K-ATP-HI, despite the absence of leucine sensitivity. The results indicate that amino acids can stimulate insulin secretion via a glutamate dehydrogenase- and K-ATP channel-independent pathway.
