Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand how dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibition in diabetics affects hemodynamic parameters and sympathetic activation in the setting of increasing concentrations of neuropeptide Y, an endogenous peptide. The central hypothesis is that DPP4 inhibition decreases degradation of neuropeptide Y, resulting in increased vasoconstriction and sympathetic activation.

Primary Outcome

Forearm blood flow measured by strain gauge plethysmography in response to 1.0 nmol/min neuropeptide Y, the highest dose that all received.

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo
  • DRUG Sitagliptin
  • DRUG Neuropeptide Y
  • DRUG Valsartan 160mg
  • DRUG Enalaprilat
