No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate if endogenous Glucagon Like Peptide -1 (GLP-1) has an effect on brain satiety and reward systems and if there are alterations in obese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Secondly, the aim is to investigate whether treatment with a GLP-1 analog, liraglutide, restores these signals in obese patients with type 2 diabetes. Finally, also the endogenous GLP-1 effects will be investigated in obese individuals before and after gastric bypass surgery on brain satiety and reward systems.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Liraglutide treatment 12 weeks

liraglutide will be started with a titration period of 2 weeks: week 1 0.6mg once daily, week 2 1.2mg once daily. If well tolerated, treatment will be continued for 10 more weeks in dosage of 1.8mg once daily

DRUG

insulin glargine treatment

Insulin glargine treatment consist a treatment period of 12 weeks. Treatment will start with a dosage of 10 IU once daily. Patient will self-titrate the insulin glargine dosage based on self-monitored fasting blood glucose (FBG) concentrations for the previous 3 days using the following guideline: If FBG levels are above 5.6 mmol/L (100-153 mg/dL) on 3 consecutive mornings, the daily dose is to be increased by 2 IU/day. If hypoglycemia documented by glucose concentration \< 3.3 mmol/L (60 mg/dL) or requiring assistance occurs without an easily identifiable reason (skipped meal, excessive physical activity), the daily dose is to be downregulated, with -2 IU/day

DRUG

GLP-1 receptor antagonist

Exendin 9-39 will be infused intravenously at doses of 600 pM/kg • min. This will only be during one of the visit for the healthy lean controls and the T2DM group, and during two visits in the group with obesity planned for gastric bypass surgery
