Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to understand the role of glucagon signal on glucose metabolism in individuals with and without bariatric surgery. The study is involved with measuring glucose metabolism with glucagon infusion and glucagon receptor blockade. We use an investigational drug called REMD 477. "Investigational" means that the has not yet been approved by the U.S. Food \& Drug Administration (FDA). REMD-477 is a monoclonal antibody (an antibody made by cloning a unique white blood cell) that blocks the effect of glucagon.
Detailed Description:
Participants will be screened, and if eligible will be enrolled for metabolic studies for two separate aims. In aim 1, they undergo glucose clamp study with and without glucagon infusion.
In aim 2, they undergo 2-day meal studies with and without a single dose administration of investigational drug, REMD 477 using a small needle subcutaneously. During these studies glycemic profile will be evaluated using CGM (Continuous glucose monitoring). Participants will also have a blood draw for liver enzymes8 weeks after the administration of REMD 477.
Participants will spend up to 3- 6 months participating in any pair study.
