A Study to Evaluate The Effect of Glucagon and Insulin on Endogenous Glucose Production in Humans

Overview

About this study

The experimental design we propose will enable the dissection of the relative contribution of insulin and glucagon concentrations to endogenous glucose production. Acquisition of this data will allow us to develop a model of insulin and glucagon contributions to postprandial glucose metabolism
