STUDY OBJECTIVE
• To hypothesize that daily intake of Lactobacillus reuteri increases insulin sensitivity by changing cytokine release and insulin secretion via modulation of the release of glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and -2
Simon M.-C. et al. Diabetes Care 2015;38:1827-1834
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
• Prospective, double-blind, randomized trial was performed in 21 glucose-tolerant humans
• Participants ingested 1010 b.i.d. L. reuteri or placebo over 4 weeks
• Oral glucose tolerance and isoglycemic glucose infusion tests were used to assess incretin effect and GLP-1 and GLP-2 secretion

STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
• Euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamps with [6,6-2H2]glucose were used to measure peripheral insulin sensitivity and endogenous glucose production
• Muscle and hepatic lipid contents were assessed by 1H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy
• Immune status, cytokines, and endotoxin were measured with specific assays
Simon M.-C. et al. Diabetes Care 2015;38:1827-1834
RESULTS
• Daily administration of L. reuteri increased glucose-stimulated GLP-1 and GLP-2 release by 76 and 43%, respectively, compared with placebo
• There was 49% higher insulin and 55% higher C-peptide secretion
• Intervention did not alter peripheral and hepatic insulin sensitivity, body mass, ectopic fat content, or circulating cytokines

CONCLUSIONS
• Enrichment of gut microbiota with L. reuteri increases insulin secretion, but does not directly affect insulin sensitivity or body fat distribution
• Oral ingestion of one specific strain may serve as a novel therapeutic approach to improve glucose-dependent insulin release
