Protected Pea Protein Extract and Satiety Hormone Release

July 6, 2015 updated by: Bouke Salden, Maastricht University Medical Center

Assessment of the Effects of Gastric Degradation-protected Pea Protein Extract on Mucosal Satiety Hormone Release by Human Duodenal Tissue

The increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity among the population contributes to increased incidences of chronic metabolic diseases. Healthcare costs related to these diseases are rising; prevention or delay of onset of disorders associated with overweight is needed. Food ingestion exerts a transient suppressive effect on appetite and further food intake by releasing gastrointestinal hormones. Proteins have been shown to be more satiating than carbohydrates and fat. Intraduodenal administration (via a naso-duodenal intubation) of pea protein has been shown to reduce food intake and increase satiety hormone levels in humans, in contrast to orally dosed (unprotected) pea protein. In the present study we aim to investigate the effects of human gastric fluid on the degradability of five different protected pea protein products. Further, in an ex vivo experiment on freshly obtained human duodenum tissue applying Ussing chamber technology; we aim to investigate the intestinal satiety hormone release by the five different prototypes. The prototype that is less degraded by human gastric fluid and is most effective in intestinal satiety hormone release will be used in a future clinical trial.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

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.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To measure the release of satiety hormones (CCK, PYY, GLP-1) by intestinal mucosa in respons to five different protected pea protein extracts.
Time Frame: In Ussing Chamber at baseline
In Ussing Chamber at baseline
To measure the release of satiety hormones (CCK, PYY, GLP-1) by intestinal mucosa in respons to five different protected pea protein extracts.
Time Frame: In Ussing Chamber after 240 minutes
In Ussing Chamber after 240 minutes

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To measure the degradability of the different prototypes by human gastric fluid, tested in an in vitro setting.
Time Frame: At baseline
First, in vitro digestion will be conducted for the gastro-resistent protein in order to calculate the degree of hydrolysis of food proteins by o-phthaldialdehyde method (OPA). First, OPA solution and serine standard solution will be prepared. Samples are analyzed after the in vitro digestion. Measurements are made on 96 well microplates, each sample is analyzed twice. The absorbance is measured on spectrophotometer. The degree of hydrolysis corresponds to the amount of amino groups released during enzymatic digestion.
