Fig 6. Possible starvation and gluconeogenesis pathways in DM patients.

Fig 6

The measured metabolites and insulin are represented in Gothic letters in boxes. Red and blue arrows show the behaviors of metabolite levels in DM and non-DM patients, respectively. Up and down arrows represent high and low values at later times (2–4 h) during HD, respectively. Detailed time course changes of these levels are presented in Figs 3, 4 and 5. Double arrows and dashed single arrows indicate the acceleration and suppression of flow, respectively. OAA, FFA and Suc-CoA represent oxaloacetic acid, free fatty acid and succinyl Co-A, respectively.
