Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Each healthy volunteer will undergo two treatments (one with taurocholic acid (TCA) 4g and one with control), in double- blind, randomised fashion, separated by 7 days. On each day a small intestinal catheter will be positioned for TCA or control (saline) infusion into the jejunum during both 30 minutes of fasting (2g TCA or saline control) and 120 minutes of concurrent glucose infusion (2g TCA or saline control, together with 60g glucose).

Summary
Brief summary
The study is designed to evaluate the effects of intrajejunal taurocholic acid on the release of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) from the small intestine, and the glycaemic response to concomitant intrajejunal glucose infusion in healthy subjects.
