Understanding Individual Variability in Neuronal Signal Transmission to Target Organs in Health and Disease

Subjects will undergo a 75 g oGTT (180 min) combined with a double tracer dilution. The double-tracer dilution technique will be used to quantify endogenous glucose production, glucose appearance and disappearance rate. \[6,6-2H\]glucose will be infused for a total of 300 minutes, while the infusion will start 120 minutes prior the oGTT and will last until the end of the oGTT. Atropine infusion will be administered 20 minutes before the start of the oGTT. The drink consumed at time point 0 min contains 75 gram glucose, enriched with \[U-13C6\]-glucose.
