Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to examine the pathophysiology of insulin resistance and the relation to the metabolic syndrome in humans.
Detailed Description:
In this study insulin resistant (IR), young offspring of parents with type 2 diabetes (18-46 years) and healthy, lean elderly individuals (65-90 years) underwent 1H/13C MRS measurements of liver and muscle lipid and glycogen content before and after a high carbohydrate meal challenge. Hepatic de novo lipogenesis was determined as the incorporation of deuterium, from deuterium labeled water (2H2O), into plasma triglycerides 5. These metabolic studies were performed in 2 sets: Study Part 1: Resting, Study Part 2: After 1 bout of 45 minutes exercise.
The study has been completed and published as two papers: August 16, 2011 and July 24, 2012.
