• Purpose Obesity is characterized by chronic inflammation that may contribute to insulin resistance and promote type 2 diabetes. We have investigated whether inflammatory responses to glycemic and insulinemic variations are altered in obese individuals. Methods Eight obese and eight lean individuals without diabetes had undergone hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic-hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic clamps in a previous study. Using Proximity Extension Assay, 92 inflammatory markers were analyzed from plasma samples at fasting, hyperinsulinemia-euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Results In all participants, hyperinsulinemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia led to reductions of 11, 19 and 62 out of the 70 fully evaluable biomarkers, respectively. FGF-21 increased during both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia while IL-6 and IL-10 increased during hypoglycemia. In obese vs lean participants, Oncostatin-M, Caspase-8 and 4E-BP1 were more markedly suppressed during hypoglycemia, whereas VEGF-A was more markedly suppressed during hyperglycemia. BMI correlated inversely with changes of PD-L1 and CD40 during hyperinsulinemia, Oncostatin-M, TNFSF14, FGF-21 and 4EBP-1 during hypoglycemia and CCL23, VEGF-A and CDCP1 during hyperglycemia (Rho ≤ -0.50). HbA1c correlated positively with changes of MCP-2 and IL-15-RA during hyperinsulinemia (Rho ≥ 0.51) and inversely with changes of CXCL1, MMP-1 and Axin-1 during hypoglycemia (Rho ≤ -0.55). M-value correlated positively with changes of IL-12B and VEGF-A during hyperglycemia (Rho ≥ 0.51). Results above were significant ( p  < 0.05). Conclusion Overall, hyperinsulinemia, hypo- and hyperglycemia led to suppression of several inflammatory markers and this tended to be more marked in individuals with obesity, insulin resistance and dysglycemia. Thus, acute glycemic or insulinemic variations do not seem to potentiate possible inflammatory pathways in the development of insulin resistance and disturbed glucose metabolism.
