Fat-induced Release of GLP-1 in Humans

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes

• Registration Number: NCT02264951
• Lead Sponsor: Glostrup University Hospital, Copenhagen

Brief Summary

This study compared the incretin-releasing effect of C8-diet oil and tributyrin with that of 20 ml olive oil on a molar basis in human volunteers.

Detailed Description

A structured triglyceride (1,3-di-octanoyl-2-oleoyl-glycerol, called C8-diet oil), which upon digestion results in generation of two medium-chain fatty acids and 2-oleoyl-glycerol (2-OG), may lead to activation of GPR119 only, since medium fatty acids are poor agonists for fatty acid receptors.
