Aims: We aimed to compare the concentrations of GLP-1, glucagon and GIP (established regulators of glucose homeostasis) and glicentin (emerging new metabolic marker)during an OGTT in patients with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), prediabetes and diabetes at onset, and one-year before, when all had prediabetes. Methods: GLP-1, glucagon, GIP and glicentin concentrations were measured and compared with markers of body composition, insulin sensitivity and β-cell function at a 5-timepoint OGTT in 125 subjects (30 diabetes, 65 prediabetes, 30 NGT) and in 106 of them one-year before, when all had prediabetes. Results: At baseline, when all subjects were in prediabetic state, hormonal levels did not differ between groups. One year later, patients progressing to diabetes had lower postprandial increases of glicentin and GLP-1, lower postprandial decrease of glucagon, and higher levels of fasting GIP compared to patients regressing to NGT. Changes in glicentin and GLP-1 AUC within this year correlated negatively with changes in Glucose AUC of OGTT and with changes in markers of beta cell function. Conclusion: Incretins, glucagon and glicentin profiles in prediabetic state cannot predict future glycemic traits, but prediabetes progressing to diabetes is accompanied by deterioration of postprandial increases of GLP-1 and glicentin.
