TLDR
Findings underscore the potential key role of amino acid metabolism early in the pathogenesis of diabetes and suggest that amino acid profiles could aid in diabetes risk assessment.
Abstract
Emerging technologies allow the high-throughput profiling of metabolic status from a blood specimen (metabolomics) We investigated whether metabolite profiles could predict the development of diabetes Among 2,422 normoglycemic individuals followed for 12 years, 201 developed diabetes Amino acids, amines and other polar metabolites were profiled in baseline specimens by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) Cases and controls were matched for age, body mass index and fasting glucose Five branched-chain and aromatic amino acids had highly significant associations with future diabetes: isoleucine, leucine, valine, tyrosine and phenylalanine A combination of three amino acids predicted future diabetes (with a more than fivefold higher risk for individuals in top quartile) The results were replicated in an independent, prospective cohort These findings underscore the potential key role of amino acid metabolism early in the pathogenesis of diabetes and suggest that amino acid profiles could aid in diabetes risk assessment

Homeostasis model assessment : insulin resistance and beta-cell function from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in man

TL;DR: The correlation of the model's estimates with patient data accords with the hypothesis that basal glucose and insulin interactions are largely determined by a simple feed back loop.

Reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with lifestyle intervention or metformin.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared a lifestyle intervention with metformin to prevent or delay the development of Type 2 diabetes in nondiabetic individuals. And they found that the lifestyle intervention was significantly more effective than the medication.
