Outline of Final Research Achievements

Impact of carbohydrate sources on short-term post-prandial serum glucose, insulin, and non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations was investigated with obese cats. Maltose appears to be capable of inducing experimentally induced postprandial hyperglycemia in obese cats. Next, effect on short-term post-prandial serum glucose, insulin, and incretin hormone concentrations in healthy cats treated by acarbose and sitaglipt and its combination therapy were investigated, following ingestion of a meal with maltose. Combination therapy offers great potential for treating diabetic cats.
