Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of study is to examine whether raised blood glucose enhances lipid particle production independent of effects on gastric emptying and pancreatic/ gastrointestinal hormone production.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will be performed on healthy, lean, non-diabetic males and females who will participate two studies each in random order, 4 to 6 weeks apart. Study A: lipoprotein turnover with intravenous infusion of normal saline. Study B: lipoprotein turnover i.v infusion of glucose. In both studies, subjects will drink a liquid formula every hour to remain in a constant fed state and will be under conditions of pancreatic clamp (with the infusion of hormones somatostatin, insulin, glucagon, growth hormone). Subjects will be blinded with regard to the treatments.
