Abstract

In previous studies with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) we have observed that this peptide modulates fluid intake and increases renal sodium excretion in healthy volunteers and in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2. The effect of GLP-1 on thirst, water intake and on osmoregulation has, however, not been examined in detail in humans. Methods: Seventeen healthy male subjects were enrolled in two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. In study part A, 8 volunteers participated in a protocol with an intravenous salt load of 26.7 ± 0.9 g comparing the effect of an infusion of GLP-1 (1.5 pmol/kg × min) to isotonic saline (placebo). Sodium excretion and water intake were measured. In part B, 9 volunteers were challenged with an oral salt load of 27.7 ± 0.5 g; sodium excretion and water intake were determined comparing an infusion of GLP-1 (1.5 pmol/kg × min) to isotonic saline (placebo). In part C, intestinal biopsies along the gastrointestinal tract were obtained from 14 healthy subjects. Expression of human GLP-1 receptor mRNA was measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results: In study part A, an increase in renal sodium excretion was demonstrated: FeNa rose from 1.6 ± 0.3 (placebo) to 2.7 ± 0.2% (GLP-1; p = 0.0005). There was no difference in water consumption between the two treatments: 1,291 ± 69 (saline) vs. 1,228 ± 74 ml (GLP-1; p = 0.49). In part B, an oral salt challenge of 27.7 ± 0.5 g led to an increased renal excretion of sodium during GLP-1: FeNa increased from 1.6 ± 0.2% (placebo) to 2.0 ± 0.2% (GLP-1; p = 0.012). In contrast to part A, oral water intake was reduced by 36% under GLP-1 treatment: 1,848 ± 331 ml (placebo) vs. 1,181 ± 177 ml (GLP-1; p = 0.0414). Three subjects in part B did not finish treatment with GLP-1 because of diarrhea. Human GLP-1 receptor mRNA expression was highest in the proximal human small intestine compared to terminal ileum and colon (p < 0.02). Conclusions: GLP-1 acts on renal tissue reducing sodium absorption, probably via similar sodium transporters, which also may be localized in the gastrointestinal tract. This hypothesis needs to be confirmed by further studies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
