Brief summary
The study is being undertaken to understand how the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass procedure can affect insulin secretion after meals. The hypothesis of this study is the Disposition Index is decreased in subjects who had previously undergone Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass by glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor blockade.
Interventions
Exendin 9,39 is a competitive antagonist of endogenous GLP-1.
A saline infusion will be given to match the study drug infusion.
