Registration Number

Brief Summary

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is a gut-derived incretin hormone that affects glucose, lipid and bone metabolism. Secretion of GIP into the blood stream from enteroendocrine cells is stimulated bu nutrients in the gut lumen and results in potentiation of glucose stimulated insulin secretion from the pancreas. The objective of this study is to investigate the physiology of GIP(1-30)NH2 in humans with insulin secretion as the primary endpoint. Furthermore the effects on on plasma/serum levels of glucagon, C-peptide, glucose, bone markers (CTX and P1NP) will be measured.
