Официальное название

Determining Cell- and Spatially-distinct Skeletal Muscle Transcriptional Aberrations With Insulin Resistance

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to find new signs or signals in muscle cells that can help us understand when the body isn't responding well to insulin (a condition called insulin resistance).

Подробное описание

The primary goal of this research is to look at gene expression changes to insulin stimulation in different cells and areas of skeletal muscle and how they are affected by obesity and insulin resistance. The investigators are studying sedentary men and women between the ages of 30 and 65 years with; either a body mass index (BMI) between 18-25 kg/m2 or 30-40 kg/m2

Вмешательства

• Другое VO2 Max
  Aerobic Fitness determined by measuring maximal volume of oxygen consumed (VO2max) during a stationary bicycle exercise test.
• Другое DEXA
  DEXA scans will be performed to measure body fay and estimate muscle mass.
• Другое Peripheral Microvascular Reactivity
  Post-occlusive reactive hyperemia (POHR) will be measured using Near Infrared Spectroscopy
• Другое Skeletal Muscle Insulin Sensitivity
  Skeletal Muscle Insulin Sensitivity will be assessed with a hyperinsulinemic -euglycemic clamp with stable glucose isotope tracers.
• Другое Non-Oxidative Glucose Disposal
  Rates of glucose oxidation will be measured with indirect calorimetry during the hyperinsulinemic -euglycemic clamp. Rates of non-oxidized glucose disposal will be calculated by subtracting rates of glucose oxidation from rates of glucose disposal during the hyperinsulinemic -euglycemic clamp.
• Другое Muscle tissue Biopsy
  A biopsy of the Vastus Lateralis muscle will be performed using the Bergstrom technique. A biopsy will be obtained before the clamp and immediately after the clamp.
