Obesity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Gut Hormone LEAP2 in Metabolism and Eating Behaviour: Fixed Meal Testing
The goal of this interventional study is to measure the blood levels of the gut hormones LEAP2 and acyl ghrelin (AG), appetite and food intake after consuming liquid meals of different caloric sizes, in healthy adults with and without obesity. AG is a stomach-derived homone that increases appetite, and LEAP2 a liver-gut derived hormone that decreases appetite, which interferes the action of AG ant its receptor in the brain called the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). Blood levels of AG and LEAP2 change in opposite directions after food intake (AG decreasing, LEAP2 increasing). AG is formed from an inactive version of hormone called desacyl ghrelin (DAG). Previous studies have shown that greater food intake leads to a greater decrease in blood levels of total ghrelin (AG + DAG), but this has not been studied for changes in blood AG or LEAP2 after eating. Blood levels of AG and total ghrelin when fasted and after food intake are lower, while blood levels of LEAP2 are higher, in adults with than those without obesity. The main study questions are: 1. Are there greater increases in blood levels of LEAP2 and greater decreases in blood levels of AG after consuming larger meals (by amount of calories they contain)? 2. Are greater decreases in appetite after connsuming larger meals related to greater increases in blood levels of LEAP2 and greater decreases in blood levels of AG? 3. Are greater decreases in food intake at a buffet lunch after consuming larger meals eaten a few hours previously related to greater increases in blood levels of LEAP2 and greater decreases in blood levels of AG? 4. Do the above findings differ between adults without obesity and with obesity? Healthy adults (without and with obesity) will consume liquid meals containing different amounts of calories (0, 600, 1200, 1800 kcal, of identical total volume) after an overnight fast and have measurements of blood LEAP2 and AG and appetite ratings from 0 to 180 min, and have food intake at a buffet lunch measured at 180 mins.
