Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide - New Role as Blood Glucose Stabilizer?

July 10, 2015 updated by: Mikkel Christensen, University Hospital, Gentofte, Copenhagen
The purpose of this study is to determine whether glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) has a stabilizing function on the blood glucose

Detailed Description

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of GIP on the glucagon secretion during hyper-, eu- and hypoglycemia in healthy volunteers, patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

From this, we will evaluate GIP's role as blood sugar stabilizer.

EXPERIMENTAL: Patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus
Drug: glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide

For the first 20 min of the experiment the volunteers will receive GIP at 4 pmol/kg body weight.

For the following 40 minutes the volunteers will receive 2 pmol/kg body weight

Drug: Placebo
copy GIP infusion rates
EXPERIMENTAL: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Drug: glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide

For the first 20 min of the experiment the volunteers will receive GIP at 4 pmol/kg body weight.

For the following 40 minutes the volunteers will receive 2 pmol/kg body weight

Drug: Placebo

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The difference in glucagon secretion quantified as the difference in plasma glucagon concentration and incremental baseline-subtracted area under the curve (AUC) for plasma glucagon
Time Frame: -10, 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes at each visit
-10, 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes at each visit

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The difference between the amount of infused glucose and the insulin responses
Time Frame: will be measured at each visit
will be measured at each visit
