Effect of Treatment With Metformin in Type 2 Diabetes Patients on Alternative Genes Splicing

Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]

Purpose Main objective : Show that treatment with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes has an effect on alternative splicing of the insulin receptor. Secondary objective : demonstrate that the effect on the ratio A/isoform B isoform with discontinuation of treatment with metformin can be réversé by the resumption of metformin treatment.

Detailed DescriptionNot Provided
Study TypeInterventional
Study PhaseN/A
Study DesignIntervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Basic Science
ConditionType 2 Diabetes
InterventionDrug: Metformin
After inclusion in the study to J0, metformin treatment will be interrupted between J1 and J30, replaced by Januvia 100 mg/day dose, then resumed at J31.
Study Arm (s)Experimental: Arm1
During their visit of consultation on the follow-up to the type 2 diabetes, les patients will be selected on the basis of active metformin treatment at a dose greater than or equal to 1400 mg/day. Patients will have to achieve a 10 ml blood sample. The blood will be processed by Ficoll gradient centrifugation to remove the red cells and isolate circulating leukocytes: this stage will be conducted in the CERITD. Analysis on circulating leukocytes and in particular the quantification of expressions of isoforms A and B of the INSR1 by quantitative RT - PCR gene will be conducted in the laboratory of the Professor Marc Peschanski (unit INSERM 861 I - STEM of Evry).
After inclusion in the study to J0, metformin treatment will be interrupted between J1 and J30, replaced by Januvia 100 mg/day dose, then resumed at J31.
