Filter by:This project will characterize the physiological effect of the hormones, GIP-, GLP-1- and GLP-2 infusions in a group of individuals that are carriers of GIP-, GLP-1- and GLP-2 receptor gene variants, respectively.
An open-labeled intervention study testing healthy, lean, and male volunteers on two separate occasions: 1. blood sampling after consuming 36 gram 3-Hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) salt. 2. blood sampling while given a variable rate of 3-OHB salt intravenously to replicate the concentrations seen during oral consumption. The primary outcome is differences in insulin concentrations (incremental AUC) 180 minutes after 3-OHB consumed orally vs. intravenously. Secondary outcomes includes iAUC for other gastrointestinal hormones and substrates (Glucagon, GLP-1, GIP, glucose, and 3-OHB) Gastric emptying will be evaluated using 1500 mg Paracetamol consumption before each intervention day. Urine will be analyzed for ketone concentrations/excretion rates.
The aime of this study is to envsitigate if ethanol has an incretin effect. This is done by administration of ethanol orally vs. an isoethanolaemic i.v. infusion of ethanol.
The incretin effect is markedly reduced in patients with type 2 diabetes. Data support the notion that this deficiency is a consequence of the diabetic state. However, the impact of insulin resistance on the incretin effect in obese individuals who uphold a normal glucose tolerance (NGT) despite their insulin resistant state remains to be elucidated. The primary aim of the present study is to evaluate the separate impact of one of the cornerstones of type 2 diabetic pathophysiology, namely insulin resistance, on the incretin effect in lean and obese patients with type 2 diabetes and in two matched normal-glucose tolerant groups of healthy control subjects.
Patients with T2DM lac a sufficient incretin response after oral glucose intake. It has only been tested using 50g of glucose. We don't know if patients with T2DM are capable of regulating the incretin effect like healthy people in responds to different amounts of glucose intake. The aim of the present study is to quantify the incretin effect in healthy subjects and in patients with T2DM during increasing amounts of oral glucose challenges. The proposed studies will answer important questions on the mechanisms underlying T2DM and be of importance in relation to future preventive- and treatment strategies.
