- To study the response of active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1), Glucagon, Insulin, C-peptide and growth hormone (GH) and liver gluconeogenesis to a glucagon challenge in healthy volunteers- To study the expression of glucagon receptor mRNA in the…
(1) To establish the pharmacokinetic profile of clonidine following oral administration in children with suspected GH deficiency. (2) To relate the pharmacokinetics of clonidine to the observed expected (GH-response, cortisol response, depth and…
1) To assess insulin sensitivity and response in critically ill septic neonates and children. 2) To determine protein balance in septic, critically ill children at baseline and during a Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp, while receiving standard or…
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of a glucagon challenge on hepatic glucose production, abdominal subcutaneous glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients with and without oral antidiabetics. In addition, endothelial…
