Glucose-induced responses of insulin and gastric inhibitory polypeptide in various animal models.

Abstract
In order to clarify the role of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) in an enteroinsular axis, 19 healthy mongrel dogs were divided into following groups: 5 normal dogs (N), 4 dogs with gastrojejunostomy (GJ), 5 dogs with duodenal fistula (D) and 5 vagotomized dogs (V). Four weeks after the operation glucose was administered orally or intraduodenally in a conscious state. In group D, glucose administration was repeated under atropine injection (A). Glucose-induced response of plasma GIP was exaggerated in all the groups compared with group N. The regression equation reported by Lauritsen and Moody was obtained in each dog from the ratio of plasma insulin to blood glucose and from plasma GIP. The slope of the regression line was elevated in group GJ and reduced in group V. However, groups D and A did not reveal any difference in the slope of the regression line compared with group N. From the present study, it might be concluded that the B-values in Lauritsen and Moody's equation indicates the sensitivity of the B cell in the pancreatic islet and that GIP secretion plays an important role in the glucose-induced insulin response even in the conditions with various surgical modifications.
