OBJECTIVE To compare insulin sensitivity (M/I) and β-cell responses in youth versus adults with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or drug-naïve, recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In 66 youth (80.3% with IGT) and 355 adults (70.7% IGT), hyperglycemic clamps were used to measure 1) M/I, 2) acute (0–10 min [first phase]) C-peptide (ACPRg) and insulin (AIRg) responses to glucose, 3) steady-state C-peptide and insulin concentrations at plasma glucose of 11.1 mmol/L, and 4) arginine-stimulated maximum C-peptide (ACPRmax) and insulin (AIRmax) responses at plasma glucose &amp;gt;25 mmol/L. The fasting C-peptide–to–insulin ratio was used as an estimate of insulin clearance. RESULTS Insulin sensitivity was 46% lower in youth compared with adults (P &amp;lt; 0.001), and youth had greater acute and steady-state C-peptide (2.3- and 1.3-fold, respectively; each P &amp;lt; 0.001) and insulin responses to glucose (AIRg 3.0-fold and steady state 2.2-fold; each P &amp;lt; 0.001). Arginine-stimulated C-peptide and insulin responses were also greater in youth (1.6- and 1.7-fold, respectively; each P &amp;lt; 0.001). After adjustment for insulin sensitivity, all β-cell responses remained significantly greater in youth. Insulin clearance was reduced in youth (P &amp;lt; 0.001). Participants with diabetes had greater insulin sensitivity (P = 0.026), with lesser C-peptide and insulin responses than those with IGT (all P &amp;lt; 0.001) but similar insulin clearance (P = 0.109). CONCLUSIONS In people with IGT or recently diagnosed diabetes, youth have lower insulin sensitivity, hyperresponsive β-cells, and reduced insulin clearance compared with adults. Whether these age-related differences contribute to declining β-cell function and/or impact responses to glucose-lowering interventions remains to be determined.
