Official title
Diacylglycerols and Insulin Action in Skeletal Muscle Upon Caloric Restriction
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Research has shown that fat stored within muscles affects the muscle's sensitivity to insulin and ability to handle blood glucose. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of weight loss surgery-induced caloric restriction on the accumulation and types of fats within skeletal muscle, as well as the effects of such caloric restriction on insulin sensitivity and inflammatory responses in skeletal muscle. The investigator proposes that caloric restriction will result in decreases in diacylglycerols enriched with saturated fat and increases in diacylglycerols enriched with monounsaturated fats.
