BACKGROUND: Prevalence of obesity increased sharply recently; it was associated with an increased prevalence of several cardiometabolic diseases. Reduced glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretion is observed among obese subjects in many studies, and it may mediate the failure of insulin secretion response to food intake. AIM: To evaluate the pattern of fasting and post 75 g glucose loading of GLP-1 levels in obese and non-obese subjects. METHODS: An experimental study on the pattern of GLP-1 levels in fasting state and response in post 75 g glucose loading in obese and non-obese subjects, was conducted. Sixteen obese and 16 non-obese subjects were enrolled in the study, with age- and sex-matching in both groups. GLP-1 levels were measured at fasting state (0), 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes post-glucose loading. RESULTS: The GLP-1 response to glucose loading were similar in obese and non-obese subjects, which increased from fasting state to post glucose loading and reaching the peak levels in 15 minutes, then declined until the end of observation. There was tendency that GLP-1 levels in fasting state and post glucose loading were lower in obese subjects compared to in non-obese subjects (in fasting state, 5.67 vs. 6.16 ng/mL, P = 0.338; in 15 minutes, 6.20 vs. 6.94 ng/mL, P = 0.239; in 30 minutes 6.20 vs. 6.90 ng/mL, P = 0.264; in 60 minutes, 5.77 vs. 6.12 ng/mL, P = 0.242), but the difference were not statistically significant, except in 120 minutes (5.24 vs. 6.67 ng/mL, P = 0.049; in obese and non-obese subjects, respectively). Similar finding was also seen in the pattern of response (delta) of GLP-1 from time-to-time observation among obese and non-obese subjects (0-15 minutes [0.52 vs. 0.8 ng/mL, P = 0.350], 0-30 minutes [0.53 vs. 0.74, P = 0.550], 0-60 minutes [0.11 vs. 0.31 ng/mL, P = 0.546], in 0-120 minute [-0.42 vs. 0.31, P = 0.006]). CONCLUSIONS: The patterns of GLP-1 levels post glucose loading were similar in obese and non-obese subjects which increased from fasting state to post glucose loading, reaching the peak levels in 15 minutes and then declined until the end of observation, except in non-obese subjects where the GLP-1 levels were increased at 120 minutes. There was a tendency of GLP-1 levels in fasting state and post-glucose loading to be lower in obese subjects compared within non-obese subjects.

The present study was conducted to assess whether glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) release and appetite after a breakfast with or without an additional galactose/guar gum stimulation is different in normal-weight compared with overweight/obese subjects. Twenty-eight overweight/obese (BMI 30·3 (sd 2·7) kg/m2; age 44·3 (sd 9·7) years) and thirty normal-weight subjects (BMI 22·8 (sd 1·4), age 31·5 (sd12·8) years) participated in a crossover study. Fasting and postprandial plasma GLP-1, insulin, glucose and free fatty acid concentrations were measured in response to either a galactose (50 g)/guar gum (2·5 g) load (836 kJ) and a standard breakfast (1·9 MJ; GG), or water (250 ml) and the standard breakfast (W) every 30 min relative to the ingestion for 120 min. Appetite was assessed using 100 mm visual analogue scales. GLP-1 concentrations were significantly increased after GG at 30 and 60 min compared with W in both groups. Plasma GLP-1 concentrations in the W condition were higher in normal-weight than overweight/obese subjects (P=0·03). No difference was observed in the GG condition between groups. Satiety was increased in normal-weight compared with overweight/obese subjects in the GG condition at 30 (P=0·02) and 60 (P=0·04) min. We conclude that after a standard breakfast with water, GLP-1 release was lower in the overweight/obese than the normal-weight subjects. However, postprandial GLP-1 release in overweight/obese subjects was no different from that of normal-weight subjects when galactose/guar gum was added to the breakfast. The latter was not mirrored by subjective feelings of satiety. Disturbed perception of the physiological feedback of a satiety hormone rather than disturbed feedback itself might contribute to obesity.

The prevalence of obesity is more than 20% in many developed countries and it increases in developing countries. Obesity is associated with metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, pulmonary diseases, digestive diseases, and cancers. Although other specific treatments for these complications exist, weight loss is still an essential intervention in obesity and its complications. Therapeutic life change, behavior modification, pharmacotherapy, and surgery are major approaches to weight loss. In addition, medicine used in diabetes such as Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues may be a new type of medicine for obesity, at least for those obese patients with diabetes.

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a peptide hormone that is released in response to nutrient ingestion. Postprandial GLP-1 release has been reported to be attenuated in obese subjects, but reports on the effect of weight loss on GLP-1 are conflicting. The aim of the present study was to clarify the effect of a weight-loss period and a consecutive weight-maintenance period on nutrient-stimulated GLP-1 release in obese subjects. Nutrient-stimulated (standard breakfast; 1·9MJ) GLP-1 release was investigated in thirty-two obese subjects on three occasions: before weight loss (T1) (BMI 30·0 (sd 2·5) kg/m2); after a 6-week very-low-energy diet (VLED) (T2) (BMI 27·6 (sd 2·3) kg/m2); after a 3-month weight-maintenance period (T3) (BMI 27·9 (sd 2·3) kg/m2). At each occasion, following a fasting blood sample the test meal was fed and blood was drawn every 30min for 2h relative to ingestion in order to determine plasma GLP-1, insulin, glucose and NEFA concentrations. Subjects lost 7 (sd 3·4) kg during the VLED (P<0·0001) and regained 1 (sd 3·2) kg during the weight-maintenance period (NS). The area under the curve for nutrient-stimulated plasma GLP-1 (pmol/l×h) was significantly decreased (P=0·01) at T2 (6·8 (sd 1)) compared with T1 (12·8 (sd 2·9)) and T3 (11·1 (sd 1·5)). Since we found a rebound of concentrations after a weight-maintenance period, decrease after weight loss seems to be transient and possibly due to a negative energy balance.
