Effects of Sitagliptin and Metformin Treatment on Incretin Hormone and Insulin Secretory Responses to Oral and “Isoglycemic” Intravenous Glucose

Abstract: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors prevent degradation of incretin hormones (glucagon-like peptide 1 [GLP-1] and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide [GIP]), whereas metformin may increase GLP-1 levels. We examined, in a four-period crossover trial, the influence of metformin (2,000 mg/day), sitagliptin (100 mg/day), or their combination, on GLP-1 responses and on the incretin effect in 20 patients with type 2 diabetes, comparing an oral glucose challenge (75 g, day 5) and an "isoglycemic" intra… Show more

“…Insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, and total and intact GLP-1 and GIP were determined by specific immunoassays as previously described (18,19). Exendin cross-reacted in the glucagon assay (by ;0.014%), thus not allowing interpretation of glucagon measurements.…”

“…Several of the DPP-4 inhibitors have also been demonstrated to increase levels of (intact) GLP-1 after meal ingestion (8)(9)(10)(11). For vildagliptin and sitagliptin, it has in addition been demonstrated that intact GLP-1 levels are increased not only after meal ingestion, but also throughout the entire 24-h period with elevated fasting levels (12,13).…”

“…The effects of the two hormones with respect to insulin secretion have been shown to be additive in humans (3), but, nevertheless, the role of the ratio between active hormones and their inactivated metabolites for the incretin effect remains to be established in healthy humans. Interestingly, several studies have evaluated the impact of DPP4 inhibition (using the DPP4 inhibitors sitagliptin or vildagliptin) on the incretin effect in type 2 diabetic subjects (4,5,6) and found that the incretin effect did not change numerically (because insulin secretion increased, not only during oral glucose load but also after isoglycaemic intravenous (i.v.) glucose infusion (IIGI)) despite greater DPP4 inhibitor-mediated potentiation of active levels of incretin hormones during the oral glucose stimulus compared with the IIGI.…”
