Ghrelin is an appetite-stimulating hormone secreted from the gastric mucosa in the fasting state, and secretion decreases in response to food intake. After sleeve gastrectomy (SG), plasma concentrations of ghrelin decrease markedly. Whether this affects appetite and glucose tolerance postoperatively is unknown. We investigated the effects of ghrelin infusion on appetite and glucose tolerance in individuals with obesity before and 3 mo after SG. Twelve participants scheduled for SG were included. Before and 3 mo after surgery, a mixed-meal test followed by an ad libitum meal test was performed with concomitant infusions of acyl-ghrelin (1 pmol/kg/min) or placebo. Infusions began 60 min before meal intake to reach a steady state before the mixed-meal and were continued throughout the study day. Two additional experimental days with 0.25 pmol/kg/min and 10 pmol/kg/min of acyl-ghrelin infusions were conducted 3 mo after surgery. Both before and after SG, postprandial glucose concentrations increased dose dependently during ghrelin infusions compared with placebo. Ghrelin infusions inhibited basal and postprandial insulin secretion rates, resulting in lowered measures of β-cell function, but no effect on insulin sensitivity was seen. Ad libitum meal intake was unaffected by the administration of ghrelin. In conclusion, ghrelin infusion increases postprandial plasma glucose concentrations and impairs β-cell function before and after SG but has no effect on ad libitum meal intake. We speculate that the lower concentration of ghrelin after SG may impact glucose metabolism following this procedure. NEW & NOTEWORTHY: Ghrelin's effect on glucose tolerance and food intake following sleeve gastrectomy (SG) was evaluated. Acyl-ghrelin was infused during a mixed-meal and ad libitum meals before and 3 mo after surgery. Postprandial glucose concentrations increased during ghrelin infusions, both before and after surgery, while insulin production was inhibited. However, ad libitum meal intake did not differ during ghrelin administration compared with placebo. The decreased ghrelin concentration following SG may contribute to the glycemic control after surgery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
