Adherence to the gluten-free diet (GFD) is critical to achieving symptom control and mucosal healing in celiac disease (CeD), but its assessment is difficult.
We sought to compare stool gluten immunogenic peptides (GIPs) measurements over a 4-wk period with conventional tools commonly used to monitor compliance with a GFD.
Consecutive adult patients with CeD attending the Small Bowel Section of the Buenos Aires Gastroenterology Hospital were invited to this observational study and were instructed to collect stool samples on Fridays for 4 consecutive weeks. Weekly mean stool GIP concentration was measured was estimated. GIP results were compared with a self-assessment scale of adherence, specific CeD serology, the celiac symptom index, and the assessment by an expert dietitian.
Fifty-three CeD patients were enrolled and those with stool GIP ≥0.65 μg/g/wk (n = 13; 24.5%) had higher serum concentrations of IgA deamidated gliadin peptides (DGPs) antibodies [69 (29-109) compared with 14 (13-29); P = 0.0005] and IgA tissue transglutaminase [42 (14-200) compared with 10 (7-16); P = 0.02], higher proportion of cases with IgA DGP antibodies >20 AU/mL (84.6% compared with 33.3%; P = 0.002), and a higher self-estimated adherence score [5 (4-9) compared with 9 (7-10); P = 0.003]. GIP did not correlate with celiac symptom index scores (55.6% compared with 30.8%; P = 0.9). Expert dietitian assessment identified 69% [odds ratio (OR): 5.25; 95% CI: 1.1-27.2; P = 0.01] of nonadherent cases when high stool GIP. Logistic regression analysis determined that IgA DGP (adjusted OR: 1.1; 95% CI: 1.01-1.11; P = 0.02) and males (adjusted OR: 28.3; 95% CI: 1.1-722.6; P = 0.04) were independently associated with excessive gluten exposure.
Weekly stool GIP identifies gluten exposure that is not always detected by commonly used GFD adherence assessment methods. The higher the concentration of stool GIP, the better the predictive value of serology and dietitian interviews. Stool GIP is a useful and practical test for GFD monitoring, particularly for risky gluten exposure in real-life scenarios.

To investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of tirzepatide in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
In this phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple dose study, patients were randomized into one of two cohorts to receive once-weekly subcutaneous tirzepatide or placebo. The initial tirzepatide dose in both cohorts was 2.5 mg, which was increased by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks to a maximum final dose of 10.0 mg at week 16 (Cohort 1) or 15.0 mg at week 24 (Cohort 2). The primary outcome was the safety and tolerability of tirzepatide.
Twenty-four patients were randomized (tirzepatide 2.5-10.0 mg: n = 10, tirzepatide 2.5-15.0 mg: n = 10, placebo: n = 4); 22 completed the study. The most frequently reported treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) among patients receiving tirzepatide were diarrhea and decreased appetite; most TEAEs were mild and resolved spontaneously with no serious adverse events reported in the tirzepatide groups and one in the placebo group. The plasma concentration half-life of tirzepatide was approximately 5-6 days. Mean glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) decreased over time from baseline in the 2.5-10.0 mg (- 2.4%) and 2.5-15.0 mg (- 1.6%) tirzepatide groups, at week 16 and week 24, respectively, but remained steady in patients receiving placebo. Body weight decreased from baseline by - 4.2 kg at week 16 in the tirzepatide 2.5-10.0 mg group and by - 6.7 kg at week 24 in the 2.5-15.0 mg group. Mean fasting plasma glucose levels fell from baseline by - 4.6 mmol/L in the tirzepatide 2.5-10.0 mg group at week 16 and by - 3.7 mmol/L at week 24 in the tirzepatide 2.5-15.0 mg group.
Tirzepatide was well tolerated in this population of Chinese patients with T2D. The safety, tolerability, PK, and PD profile of tirzepatide support once-weekly dosing in this population.

Epidemiologic studies have revealed that consuming green tea or coffee reduces diabetes risk. We evaluated the effects of the combined consumption of green tea catechins and coffee chlorogenic acids (GTC+CCA) on postprandial glucose, the insulin incretin response, and insulin sensitivity. Eleven healthy men were recruited for this randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled crossover trial. The participants consumed a GTC+CCA-enriched beverage (620 mg GTC, 373 mg CCA, and 119 mg caffeine/day) for three weeks; the placebo beverages (PLA) contained no GTC or CCA (PLA: 0 mg GTC, 0 mg CCA, and 119 mg caffeine/day). Postprandial glucose, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) responses were measured at baseline and after treatments. GTC+CCA consumption for three weeks showed a significant treatment-by-time interaction on glucose changes after the ingestion of high-fat and high-carbohydrate meals, however, it did not affect fasting glucose levels. Insulin sensitivity was enhanced by GCT+CCA compared with PLA. GTC+CCA consumption resulted in a significant increase in postprandial GLP-1 and a decrease in GIP compared to PLA. Consuming a combination of GTC and CCA for three weeks significantly improved postprandial glycemic control, GLP-1 response, and postprandial insulin sensitivity in healthy individuals and may be effective in preventing diabetes.

Diabetes is expected to increase up to 700 million people worldwide with type 2 diabetes being the most frequent. The use of nutritional interventions is one of the most natural approaches for managing the disease. Minerals are of paramount importance in order to preserve and obtain good health and among them molybdenum is an essential component. There are no studies about the consumption of biofortified food with molybdenum on glucose homeostasis but recent studies in humans suggest that molybdenum could exert hypoglycemic effects. The present study aims to assess if consumption of lettuce biofortified with molybdenum influences glucose homeostasis and whether the effects would be due to changes in gastrointestinal hormone levels and specifically Peptide YY (PYY), Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1), Glucagon-Like Peptide 2 (GLP-2), and Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP). A cohort of 24 people was supplemented with biofortified lettuce for 12 days. Blood and urine samples were obtained at baseline (T0) and after 12 days (T2) of supplementation. Blood was analyzed for glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, β-cell function, and insulin sensitivity, PYY, GLP-1, GLP-2 and GIP. Urine samples were tested for molybdenum concentration. The results showed that consumption of lettuce biofortified with molybdenum for 12 days did not affect beta cell function but significantly reduced fasting glucose, insulin, insulin resistance and increased insulin sensitivity in healthy people. Consumption of biofortified lettuce did not show any modification in urine concentration of molybdenum among the groups. These data suggest that consumption of lettuce biofortified with molybdenum improves glucose homeostasis and PYY and GIP are involved in the action mechanism.

Sustained weight loss is highly desirable in obesity. Although the role of incretins in the regulation of body weight is well known, macronutrient specific incretin response and the effects of weight loss on this response have not been investigated before. We aimed to examine GLP-1, GIP, ghrelin, insulin, and satiety response to meals with different macronutrient composition in overweight and obese subjects before and after weight loss.
32 overweight and obese participants underwent meal tests before and after weight loss intervention. Test meals were designed to be either carbohydrate (CHO), fat (FAT), or protein (PRO) enriched to test macronutrient specific response. Macronutrient specific response of GLP-1, GIP, and ghrelin before and after weight loss were the primary outcome measures. Response of insulin and satiety were predefined secondary endpoints.
There were macronutrient specific response patterns of GLP-1 (PRO>FAT=CHO), GIP (CHO=FAT>PRO), and insulin (CHO>PRO=FAT). Postprandial decline of ghrelin did not differ between the test meals. Hunger, desire to eat, and prospective food consumption were highest after CHO intake (CHO>PRO=FAT) at baseline. After weight loss, fasting and postprandial GLP-1 and insulin were reduced while concomitant ghrelin levels were increased. However, the macronutrient specific hormonal response pattern did not change after weight loss. While weight loss increased hunger and desire to eat, the macronutrient specific differences were lost after weight reduction. Higher weight loss was associated with a stronger decline of PRO induced GLP-1 response (ρ = 0.45, p = 0.024, n = 27).
Both hormones and satiety showed a macronutrient specific response in overweight/obese participants with a possibly favorable role of protein. However, weight loss may cause a partial disruption of this hormone-satiety-connection as macronutrient specific response pattern of satiety scores representing impulse control in particular but not incretins disappeared.

One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is as effective as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) regarding weight loss and diabetes remission. However, there are no data on gut hormone secretions after OAGB. The aim of this study was to compare fasting and postprandial secretions of gut and pancreatic hormones in OAGB versus RYGB patients.
Twenty-nine patients, 16 OAGB- and 13 RYGB-operated, underwent a liquid mixed-meal tolerance test at 2 years\' post-surgery. Blood was sampled before and 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min after meal for plasma measurement of glucose, C-peptide, insulin, glucagon, GLP-1, GIP, GLP-2, PYY, and ghrelin.
Percentage of total weight loss 2 years post-surgery were -33.9 ± 1.8% for OAGB and -31.2 ± 1.6% for RYGB (p = 0.6). Four patients with persistent diabetes were excluded for further analysis. Fasting and postprandial glucose levels (peaks and area under curve values) were similar between groups. HOMA index was lower in the OAGB group (0.8 ± 0.1 vs 1.3 ± 0.2 in RYGB, p < 0.05). Levels of C-peptide (or insulin) measured at 30 min were significantly lower in OAGB vs RYGB patients (6.9 ± 0.5 vs 9.7 ± 1.1 µg/l, p < 0.05). No difference was observed between OAGB and RYGB groups for GLP-1, GLP-2, PYY, or ghrelin postprandial secretions, but GIP tended to be lower in OAGB vs RYGB patients (756 ± 155 vs 1100 ± 188 pg/ml for postprandial peak concentrations, p = 0.06).
This is the first clinical study showing that OAGB procedure, like RYGB, results in high postprandial secretions of gut hormones, in particular GLP-1.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of tirzepatide in Japanese participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
METHODS: This phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-dose, multiple-ascending dose study randomized participants to once-weekly subcutaneous tirzepatide or placebo. The tirzepatide treatment groups were: 5 mg (5 mg, weeks 1-8), 10 mg (2.5 mg, weeks 1-2; 5 mg, weeks 3-4; 10 mg, weeks 5-8), and 15 mg (5 mg, weeks 1-2; 10 mg, weeks 3-6; 15 mg, weeks 7-8). The primary outcome was tirzepatide safety and tolerability.
RESULTS: Forty-eight participants were randomized. The most frequently reported treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were decreased appetite and gastrointestinal AEs, which were generally dose-dependent and mild in severity. The plasma tirzepatide concentration half-life was approximately 5 days. After 8 weeks of treatment, fasting plasma glucose decreased from baseline with tirzepatide versus placebo; the least squares (LS) mean decrease compared with placebo (95% confidence interval [CI]) was 52.7 (35.9-69.6), 69.1 (52.3-85.9), and 68.9 (53.2-84.6) mg/dL in the 5-, 10-, and 15-mg treatment groups, respectively (P < .0001 for all treatment groups). Tirzepatide also resulted in LS mean decreases from baseline versus placebo at 8 weeks in HbA1c up to 1.6% (95% CI 1.2%-1.9%; P < .0001 for all treatment groups) and body weight up to 6.6 kg (95% CI 5.3-7.9; P < .0001 for all treatment groups).
CONCLUSIONS: All tirzepatide doses were well tolerated. The safety, tolerability, PK, and PD profiles of tirzepatide support further evaluation of once-weekly dosing in Japanese people with T2D.

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) plays an important role in the glucose and lipid metabolism. We investigated the effects of exogenous GIP on lipid metabolism during time of stable insulin levels. Ten male patients with type 1 diabetes without endogenous insulin secretion (C-peptide-negative, mean [±SD] age 26 ± 4years, body mass index 24 [±2] kg/m2 , glycated haemoglobin 56 [±8] mmol/mol or 7.3 [±0.8]%) were studied in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study with continuous intravenous infusions of GIP (4 pmol/kg/min) or placebo (saline), during two separate 90-minute hyperglycaemic (12 mmol/L) clamps with basal insulin substitution (0.1-0.2 mU/kg/min). Plasma glycerol concentrations increased from baseline during GIP infusion and decreased during placebo infusion (baseline-subtracted area under the curve [bsAUC] 703 ± 407 vs. -262 ± 240 μmol/L × min, respectively; P < 0.001). Free fatty acids (FFAs) increased during GIP infusions (bsAUC 5505 ± 2170 μEq/L × min) and remained unchanged during placebo infusion (bsAUC -74 ± 2363 μEq/L × min), resulting in a significant difference between GIP and placebo infusions (P < 0.001). Plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon were similar during GIP and placebo infusions. GIP increased plasma glycerol and FFAs in patients with type 1 diabetes during hyperglycaemia and stable basal insulin levels. This supports a direct lipolytic effect of GIP at high glucose and low levels of plasma insulin.

OBJECTIVE: Type 1 diabetes is characterised by reduced glucagon response to hypoglycaemia, increasing the risk of insulin treatment-associated hypoglycaemia known to hamper glycaemic control. We previously reported a glucagonotropic effect of exogenous glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) during insulin-induced hypoglycaemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Here we investigate the effect of a 6-day s.c. GIP infusion on time in glycaemic range as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
METHODS: In a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study, time in glycaemic range (assessed by double-blinded CGM) was evaluated in 20 men with type 1 diabetes (18-75 years, stable insulin treatment ≥3 months, diabetes duration 2-15 years, fasting plasma C-peptide below 200 pmol/l, BMI 20-27 kg/m2, HbA1c <69 mmol/mol [8.5%]) during two × 6 days of continuous s.c. GIP (6 pmol kg-1 min-1) and placebo (saline [154 mmol/l NaCl]) infusion, respectively, with an interposed 7-day washout period. The primary outcome was glycaemic time below range, time in range and time above range.
RESULTS: There were no significant differences in time below range (<3.9 mmol/l, p = 0.53) or above range (>10 mmol/l, p = 0.32) during night-time or daytime, in mean glucose, or in hypoglycaemic events as assessed by CGM. GIP altered neither self-reported hypoglycaemia nor safety measures. Compared with placebo, GIP significantly increased time in tight range (3.9-7.8 mmol/l) during daytime (06:00-23:59 hours) by [mean ± SEM] 11.2 ± 5.1% [95% CI 0.41, 21.9] (p = 0.02).
CONCLUSIONS: Six-day s.c. GIP infusion in men with type 1 diabetes did not procure convincing effect on overall time in range, but increased time in tight glycaemic range during daytime by ~2 h per day.
