OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to evaluate total plasma ghrelin (TGh) concentration and its correlation with leptin and insulin in obese African American (AA) adolescents with a family history of type 2 diabetes.
PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: Insulin, leptin, and TGh were measured for 15 non-obese controls in fasted state and 19 obese AA adolescents on samples collected during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) using radioimmunoassay kits. The hormonal concentrations were compared at fasting levels between obese and non-obese AA adolescents. Insulin, leptin, and TGh concentrations were also compared during OGTT in the obese group.
RESULTS: Fasting TGh was significantly lower in obese AA adolescents compared to non-obese controls, while fasting leptin and insulin were significantly higher in obese AA adolescents compared to non-obese controls. During OGTT, for the obese group, TGh increased significantly and plasma leptin decreased significantly. A significant negative correlation was found between TGh and leptin at 30 and 120 min, but at no other time points (0, 60, and 90 min). A significant positive correlation was found between TGh and insulin at 30 min during OGTT, but no other time points.
CONCLUSIONS: TGh was lower in obese AA adolescents with a family history of type 2 diabetes and a significant correlation occurred between TGh and leptin and TGh and insulin during OGGT at specific time points in our obese group. These findings indicate that insulin resistant obese AA adolescents have impaired ghrelin suppression.
