Beta-Cell - Liver Interactions in Situations of Modified Beta-Cell Function

Sponsor: Philippe Klee, MD-PhD

Summary

The investigators will measure blood levels of 1,5-anhydroglucitol in obese children with or without type 2 diabetes and correlate them with parameters related to functional beta-cell mass and glucose metabolism. The values will be compared to those obtained in healthy volunteers. The aim of the study is to test the validity of 1,5-anhydroglucitol as a novel biomarker of beta-cell mass and function in children with obesity with or without type 2 diabetes.
