Condition(s) targeted: Normal Non-fluency
Intervention: Oral amino acid mixture (Other); Intravenous amino acid administration (Other)
Phase: N/A
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: Lund University Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Bo Ahrén, PhD, Principal Investigator, Affiliation: Lund University
Summary
The study hypothesis is that gut hormones are released after oral but not intravenous amino
acids which result in stimulation of insulin secretion.
Clinical Details
Official title: Release of Gut Hormones After Oral Versus Intravenous Amino Acids
Study design: Allocation: Non-Randomized, Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Basic Science
Primary outcome: Gut hormone secretion
Secondary outcome: Insulin secretion
Detailed description:
Amino acid mixture is given orally or intravenously to match total concentrations of amino
acids in healthy subjects. Samples are taken regularly for 300 min after administrations.
Plasma levels of the gut hormones glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and
glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)and determined and related to plasma levels of insulin and
glucagon.
