About this study

Glucagon like peptides receptors expression in the stomach of diabetes type 2 Glucagon like peptides (GLP-1, GLP-2), are hormones secreted by L cells located along the gastrointestinal tract. These hormones are secreted after meals and have some roles in regulating the digestion process, absorption, and sending signals to the brain that regulate food consumption. GLP peptides affect peripheral targets and have an important homeostatic role. GLP-1 decreases the circulatory glucose level and GLP-2 has trophic effects which enable adequate intestine growth.

We aimed in our study to investigate the GLP-1 and GLP-2 receptor expression in different zones of the stomach in diabetes type 2 patients. If there are differences, it might explain the pathological gastric emptying in these patients.

Understanding the function of these peptides may lead to new therapeutic options for diabetic patients with delayed gastric emptying.

Methods: 20 diabetes type 2 patients with symptoms that need upper endoscopy will be included in the study and 20 controls aged 18-70 years. Patients with neurological disease will be excluded. During esophagogastroduodenoscopy 3 biopsies will be taken from the antrum, corpus and cardia. The biopsies will be stored in -70. After RNA extraction the GLP receptors expression will established by real time PCR method. Patients with different expression compared to control will undergo isotopic scan for gastric emptying.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing GLP receptors expression and ESOPHAGOGASTRODUODENOSCOPY in people with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, run by Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Efrat Broide, MD (972-8-9779722, efibroide@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 May 2007.
