Association of insulin resistance and GLP-2 secretion in obesity: a pilot study

Abstract: Objective: The objective of this pilot study was to determine whether glugagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) secretion relates to insulin sensitivity (IS) in obese subjects. Subjects and methods: Twenty four obese subjects [body mass index (BMI) 40.0 ± 3.0 kg/m 2 (mean ± standard deviation)] were included, nine of which were male, age 43 ± 8 years. Twelve subjects had type 2 diabetes, all treated with oral anti-diabetic agents only. The subjects were submitted to standard meal tolerance test (MTT) for dosage of the c… Show more

“…However, both compounds improved metabolic parameters (energy intake, weight gain, fat mass, and glucose homeostasis) [112], highlighting that GLP-1 and 2 not only decrease gut permeability but also improve glucose homeostasis. Similar findings were also made in humans, in which the GLP-2 concentration of diabetic subjects inversely correlated with insulin resistance [113]. Another prebiotic treatment with inulin pasta improved the intestinal permeability, measured as zonulin expression, and GLP-2 levels in healthy young subjects [114].…”

“…However, the GLP‐2 concentrations in the ID cohort were lower than post‐prandial concentrations (>4 ng/mL) reported in patients with type‐2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) , which may reflect the different underlying pathological processes of these two conditions. Given that an inverse relationship between GLP‐2 secretion and insulin sensitivity has been reported , further studies on the relationship between GLP‐2 secretion and equine ID are justified.…”

“…C-terminal telopeptide (CTX) was measured using an ELISA kit (Immuno Diagnostic Systems Ltd, United Kingdom) [ 25 ]; the normal reference range for postmenopausal women is 0.142–1.351 ng/mL, with an intra-assay variation of 1.7–3% and inter-assay variation of 3–11%. GLP-2 was measured using an ELISA kit (Millipore Corporation, United States) [ 26 , 27 ] with a standard curve of 1–64 ng/mL, intra-assay variation of less than 10%, and inter-assay variation of less than 12%. This assay measures total levels of GLP-2, including active [ 1 - 33 ] and inactive [ 3 - 33 ] isoforms.…”
