Effect of C-peptide on Hypoglycemic Counterregulation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Iatrogenic hypoglycemia is the most prominent barrier to the safe, effective management of blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes due to periodic over-insulinization. During insulin-induced hypoglycemia, glucagon secretion is diminished in type 1 diabetes which, in turn, reduces hepatic glucose production and increases the depth and duration of hypoglycemic episodes. We have observed that the naturally occurring protein C-peptide increases glucagon secretion in dogs during insulin-induced hypoglycemia, which increases hepatic glucose production; the experiments in this application will shed light on the translation of this finding to the human.
