Effects of mixed meal tolerance test on gastric emptying, glucose and lipid homeostasis in obese nonhuman primates

Abstract Meal ingestion elicits a variety of neuronal, physiological and hormonal responses that differ in healthy, obese or diabetic individuals. The mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) is a well-established method to evaluate pancreatic β-cell reserve and glucose homeostasis in both preclinical and c...
