By means of the euglycemic three step hyperinsulinemic clamp technique, suppression of endogenous C-peptide secretion by exogenous insulin infusion was evaluated in patients with insulinoma (n = 8) and healthy controls (n = 20). Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp studies were performed with an artificial pancreas (STG-22 NIKKISO, Tokyo, Japan). Insulin (Actrapid human insulin) was infused at the rate of 1.12, 3, and 10 mU/kg/min. Plasma glucose levels were clamped at 80 mg/dl, and high insulin levels were maintained in all subjects (833 +/- 78 microU/ml at the rate of 10 mU/kg/min insulin infusion). During the clamp studies, plasma C-peptide levels in normal subjects declined from 2.0 +/- 0.2 to 0.9 +/- 0.2 ng/ml, indicating suppression of endogenous insulin secretion by exogenous insulin infusion. In patients with insulinoma, plasma C-peptide levels were 3.1 +/- 1.6 ng/ml in the basal state, and were not suppressed even during exogenous hyperinsulinemia. We concluded that the feedback inhibition of insulin secretion by exogenous insulin infusion is attenuated in patients with insulinoma, and that the hyperinsulinemic clamp technique may be a useful method for the diagnosis of insulinoma.
