Lean Diabetes Subjects
N=20 subjects with BMI 16-19.5 kg/m2, with a history of low birth weight and malnutrition documented on at least one occasion. Will undergo pancreatic clamp. Pancreatic Clamp: We are not performing any interventions; we are only characterizing participants using tests. The hormones that we are administering are not a treatment but are typically used in context of routine care.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Subjects
N=13 subjects with BMI 22.5-27 kg/m2. Will undergo pancreatic clamp Pancreatic Clamp: We are not performing any interventions; we are only characterizing participants using tests. The hormones that we are administering are not a treatment but are typically used in context of routine care.
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Subjects
N=15 subjects with BMI 16-22.5 kg/m2. Will undergo pancreatic clamp Pancreatic Clamp: We are not performing any interventions; we are only characterizing participants using tests. The hormones that we are administering are not a treatment but are typically used in context of routine care.
Lean Nondiabetic Subjects
N=16 nondiabetic with BMI 16-22.5 kg/m2 subjects 19-45 years of age and in general good health, taking no medications, with normal glucose tolerance and no family history of diabetes. These subjects will be similar in age, ethnicity and BMI with the lean DM group, and will be recruited through various means of community outreach, including notices in shops and newspapers. Will undergo pancreatic clamp Pancreatic Clamp: We are not performing any interventions; we are only characterizing participants using tests. The hormones that we are administering are not a treatment but are typically used in context of routine care.
Obese Nondiabetic Subjects
N=9 nondiabetic with BMI 24.5-29.5 kg/m2 subjects 19-45 years of age and in general good health, taking no medications, with normal glucose tolerance and no family history of diabetes. These subjects will be similar in age, ethnicity and BMI with the Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus group, and will be recruited through various means of community outreach, including notices in shops and newspapers. Will undergo pancreatic clamp Pancreatic Clamp: We are not performing any interventions; we are only characterizing participants using tests.
