<brief_summary>
<textblock>
Study part-1
GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) is one of the two main incretin hormones
secreted by specialized cells of the gastrointestinal tract in response to ingestion of
nutrients. Data emerging from studies in animal models and cultured human fat cells support
a physiological role for GIP in the adipose tissue metabolism which may contribute to the
pathogenesis of obesity.
The proposed study will shed more light on the interactions between gut hormones and adipose
tissue. For this pilot study, male subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be given
GIP or placebo infusions in a randomized manner. Fat tissue biopsies will be obtained from
all subjects during both visits, once in the basal state (before the start of the
peptide/placebo infusion) and then repeated at the end of the period of infusion.
Study part-2
Surgery represents the most effective therapeutic modality for morbid obesity. Resolution of
type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been consistently observed as an additional benefit of
surgical treatment of obesity. The mechanisms underlying the dramatic effects of surgery on
insulin sensitivity and β-cell function are poorly understood. Bariatric surgery (gastric
bypass) promotes changes in the enteroendocrine system as a result of nutrient diversion
from the physiological intestinal routes with subsequent profound modification of gut
hormone secretion
We hypothesize that restoration of GIP action after bariatric procedures plays a cardinal
role in the improvement and/or restoration of diabetes, we propose to study patients (both
sex)with morbid obesity and T2DM within 3 months after their surgery. Their responses will
be compared to those of BMI matched control subjects with normal glucose tolerance
