NCT01349387

Brief Summary

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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Comparison of expression of isoforms A and B of the insulin receptor using quantitative RT PCR

    comparison of the A isoform (without inclusion of exon 11) and B isoform (with inclusion of exon 11) ratio of the receptor in insulin, during the first period (without metformin) and the second period (with metformin)

    inclusion (baseline), 30th days and 60th days

Study Arms (1)

Arm1

EXPERIMENTAL

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.

Drug: Metformin

Interventions

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.
