Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) is one of the strongest insulinotropic gut factors. Its secretion is induced by oral (but not intravenous) glucose and it has been implicated in the pathogenesis of hyperinsulinemic states (NIDDM, obesity). To determine its relevance to hypertension, 54 subjects were studied: 26 normotensives (12 with and 14 without family history of essential hypertension), and 28 essential hypertensive subjects. Plasma glucose, serum insulin (IRI), and GIP were evaluated after a mixed meal containing a total of 82 g of carbohydrates, and 2 g sodium chloride. Venous blood was collected at baseline and every 15 min during a 3-h period. Baseline levels of glucose, IRI, and GIP were comparable in the three groups. At 30 min, however, IRI and GIP were higher in normotensives with a family history of hypertension and in established hypertensive versus control subjects. Both in normotensive and in hypertensive groups, glucose, IRI, and GIP responses to the meal were significantly correlated. Our data suggest the contribution of altered GIP secretion in the pathogenesis of hyperinsulinemia in essential hypertension.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to evaluate the effects of two surgical procedures, great curvature plication with duodenal-jejunal bypass (GCP-DJB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), on rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), comparing their impact on weight and glucose metabolism.
  • - Rats were divided into three groups: Control, SG, and GCP-DJB, and various metrics like body weight, food intake, blood glucose, and hormone levels were measured pre- and post-surgery over 12 weeks.
  • - Results showed that both surgical groups had lower body weight and improved glucose tolerance compared to the Control group, with the GCP-DJB group exhibiting better metabolic parameters than the SG group

Aim: To estimate the parameters of glucose metabolism and to assess the secretion of incretins in patients after biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) for morbid obesity (MO) in the early and late postoperative periods.

Subjects And Methods: The prospective part of the investigation included 22 patients with a body mass index of 35.8 to 68.

Background: None of the high frequency variants of the incretin-related genes has been found by genome-wide association study (GWAS) for association with occurrence of type 2 diabetes in Japanese. However, low frequency and rare and/or high frequency variants affecting glucose metabolic traits remain to be investigated.

Method: We screened all exons of the incretin-related genes (, , , , , and ) in 96 patients with type 2 diabetes and investigated for association of genetic variants of these genes with quantitative metabolic traits upon test meal with 38 young healthy volunteers and with the occurrence of type 2 diabetes in Japanese subjects comprising 1303 patients with type 2 diabetes and 1014 controls.

Effects of glucose and meal ingestion on incretin secretion in Japanese subjects with normal glucose tolerance.

Unlabelled: Aims/Introduction:  Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are the major incretins; their secretion after various nutrient loads are well-evaluated in Caucasians. However, little is known of the relationship between incretin secretion and differing nutritional loading in Japanese subjects. In the present study, we evaluated GIP and GLP-1 secretion in Japanese subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) after glucose loading (75 g glucose and 17 g glucose) and meal ingestion.

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) secretion in diabetic Europeans with type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM) following test meal (TM) has been shown to be normal. In Japanese patients with T2DM, GIP secretion was also normal. We determined whether GIP secretin is influenced by various factors.
