Aims: Treatment with glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor agonists or dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors might increase gallstone formation; however, the mechanisms involved are unknown. We aimed to assess the effects of these drugs on gallbladder volume and bile acid profile. Materials and methods: A total of 57 type 2 diabetes patients (mean ± SD age, 62.8 ± 6.9 years; BMI, 31.8 ± 4.1 kg/m2; HbA1c, 7.3% ± 0.6%), treated with metformin and/or sulfonylureas, were included in this 12-week randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, single-centre trial between July 2013 and August 2015 at the VU University Medical Center, the Netherlands. Patients received the GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide, the DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin or matching placebo for 12 weeks. Gallbladder fasting volume and ejection fraction were measured using ultrasonography after a high-fat meal. Serum bile acids were measured in the fasting and postprandial state and in faecal samples. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01744236). Results: Neither liraglutide nor sitagliptin had an effect on gallbladder fasting volume and ejection fraction (p >.05). Liraglutide increased serum levels of deoxycholic acid in the fasting state [0.20 µmol/L (95% CI 0.027-0.376), p = 0.024] and postprandial state [AUC 40.71 (13.22-68.21), p = 0.005] and in faeces [ratio 1.5 (1.03-2.19); p = 0.035]. Sitagliptin had no effect on serum bile acids, but increased faecal levels of chenodeoxycholic acid [ratio 3.42 (1.33-8.79), p = 0.012], cholic acid [ratio 3.32 (1.26-8.87), p = 0.017] and ursodeoxycholic acid [ratio 3.81 (1.44-10.14), p = 0.008]. Conclusions: Neither liraglutide nor sitagliptin has an effect on gallbladder volume. Observed changes in bile acids with liraglutide suggest alterations in the intestinal microbiome, while sitagliptin appears to increase hepatic bile acid production.

- The incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) promotes glucose homeostasis and enhances -cell function. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, which inhibit the physiological inactivation of endogenous GLP-1, are used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Using the Metabochip, we identified three novel genetic loci with large effects (30-40%) on GLP-1-stimulated insulin secretion during hyperglycemic clamps in nondiabetic Caucasian individuals (TMEM114; CHST3 and CTRB1/2; n = 232; all P 8.8 x 10(-7)). rs7202877 near CTRB1/2, a known diabetes risk locus, also associated with an absolute 0.51 +/- 0.16% (5.6 +/- 1.7 mmol/mol) lower A1C response to DPP-4 inhibitor treatment in G-allele carriers, but there was no effect on GLP-1 RA treatment in type 2 diabetic patients (n = 527). Furthermore, in pancreatic tissue, we show that rs7202877 acts as expression quantitative trait locus for CTRB1 and CTRB2, encoding chymotrypsinogen, and increases fecal chymotrypsin activity in healthy carriers. Chymotrypsin is one of the most abundant digestive enzymes in the gut where it cleaves food proteins into smaller peptide fragments. Our data identify chymotrypsin in the regulation of the incretin pathway, development of diabetes, and response to DPP-4 inhibitor treatment.
