Effects of Hyperglycemia on Myocardial Perfusion in Humans With and Without Type 2 Diabetes (GLP-1)

Effects of Hyperglycemia on Myocardial Perfusion in Humans With and Without Type 2 Diabetes: Modulation by Glucagon-Like-Peptide-1

The overall goal of this proposal is to determine the effects of acute hyperglycemia and its modulation by Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) on myocardial perfusion in type 2 diabetes (DM). This study plan utilizes myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) to explore a) the effects of acute hyperglycemia on myocardial perfusion and coronary flow reserve in individuals with and without DM; and b) the effects of GLP-1 on myocardial perfusion and coronary flow reserve during euglycemia and hyperglycemia in DM. The investigators will recruit individuals with and without DM matched for age, gender and degree of obesity. The investigators will measure myocardial perfusion at rest and during vasodilator stress (to ascertain coronary flow reserve) while subjects are under controlled pancreatic clamp conditions during euglycemia (glucose ~100 mg/dl) and hyperglycemia (glucose ~250 mg/dl) in the presence and absence of concomitant GLP-1 infusion. The investigators believe that the translational significance of their studies is immense, impacting upon both acute and chronic cardiovascular disease manifestations. The effect of glycemic control on cardiovascular outcomes, morbidity and mortality remains an area of active investigation, fueled by the recent conflicting results of several large clinical trials (ACCORD, United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), ADVANCE, VADT). If the investigators find that hyperglycemia is associated with altered myocardial perfusion, the mechanistic implications in the prevention and management of acute and chronic cardiovascular diseases in DM will be groundbreaking. Furthermore, if GLP-1 augments myocardial perfusion (as it does in the peripheral vasculature), the therapeutic benefits for prevention of cardiovascular events in this predisposed population are clear.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

40 years to 60 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

25 subjects with type 2 diabetes and 25non-diabetic subjects matched for age, gender and degree of obesity will be studied.

The diabetic subjects will be between 40 and 60 years of age and will have a body mass index of < or =35 kg/m2. Diabetic subjects treated according to ADA guidelines will be eligible for study including a blood pressure < 140/90, LDL cholesterol < 130 mg/dl, HDL cholesterol >40 mg/dl and triglycerides <200 mg/dl.

All nondiabetic subjects will not have a history of diabetes in their first degree family members. None of the subjects will have any overt evidence of cardiac, renal, pulmonary or hepatic disorder nor will they be engaging in regular vigorous physical activities. All subjects will undergo a resting ECG and a treadmill ECG test to ensure that they do not have active or occult coronary artery disease unless such testing had been completed within six months of enrollment and reported as normal.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males and females
  • Age 40-60 years
  • BMI< or = 35 kg/m2
  • Diabetic subjects with HbA1c concentrations of < or = 8%.
  • Diabetic subjects will be either on diet and lifestyle therapy alone, or monotherapy with metformin or sulphonylureas (except glyburide).
  • All diabetic subjects should be on stable dose oral agent therapy for 3 months prior to enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with cerebrovascular or peripheral vascular disease.
  • Subjects with suspected or overt autonomic neuropathy.
  • Diabetic subject on thiazolidinediones, insulin, GLP-1 based therapies (exenatide or sitagliptin), alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, glyburide or combination antidiabetic drug therapies.
  • Diabetics with microalbuminuria.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
