Study Overview

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that the impaired insulinotropic effect of the incretin hormone GIP may be due to inadequate sensitization and ATP induced closure of beta cell K-ATP channels. By closing the channels through the use of sulfonylurea (SU) we hope to restore the insulinotropic effect of GIP.
