Abstract

The reaction of beta-cells and hydrocortisone levels after standard glucose test were compared in the indigenous population of the Extreme North and newcomers in two Northern regions — the Arctic and continental. Residents of Central Siberia were controls. In Northern residents the concentrations of insulin and C-peptide and their increase after glucose loading were reliably lower than in the residents of Siberia, being the lowest in the indigenous population of and newcomers to the Arctic region. Basal level of hydrocortisone in the blood of residents of the Extreme North was higher than in residents of Central Siberia, but glucose intake led to a decrease of the hormone content and leveled the differences in its concentrations in all examinees. Glucose tolerance in the presence of low insulinemia was normal in residents of the Extreme North.
