Summary

Under chronic immunosuppressive and corticosteroid therapy, transplant patients have a tendency to develop in the long-term diabetes. Patients who have received extra pancreatic tissue with their liver and small bowel transplantation have not yet developed insulin resistance or diabetes mellitus. We would like to investigate to which level insulin secretory capacity the extra pancreas together with the native pancreas has in these transplant patients using the hyperglycemic clamp. These data will be compared with the data obtained from healthy controls.
