<p>Importing a new version from external source</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>==== Autoimmune hypoglycemia ====<br /> [[Antibody|Antibodies]] can be formed against insulin, leading to [[Autoimmunity|autoimmune]] hypoglycemia. [[Antibody|Antibodies]] are immune cells produced by the body, that normally attack bacteria and viruses, but sometimes can attack normal human cells, leading to an [[Autoimmune disease|autoimmune disorder]]. In autoimmune hypoglycemia, there are two possible mechanisms. In one instance, antibodies bind to insulin following its release associated with a meal, resulting in insulin being non-functional. At a later time, the antibodies fall off insulin, causing insulin to be functional again leading late hypoglycemia after a meal, called &#039;&#039;late postprandial hypoglycemia&#039;&#039;. Another mechanism causing hypoglycemia is due to antibodies formed against insulin [[Receptor (biochemistry)|receptors]], called &#039;&#039;insulin receptor antibodies&#039;&#039;. The antibodies attach to insulin receptors and prevent insulin breakdown, or degradation, leading to inappropriately high insulin levels and low glucose levels.</div>
