Low Dose Fat-Induced Insulin Resistance

NCT03479671

Phase 0 Completed 9 enrolled University of Pennsylvania
Non-randomizedSequentialOpen-labelBasic science

Summary

The primary goal of this study is to determine the dose of fatty acids that acutely induces mild insulin resistance in healthy volunteers. We hypothesize that a low-dose of fatty acid infusion (Intralipid/heparin) will cause a mild insulin resistance. The dose of fatty acid infusion that reliably causes mild insulin resistance will be selected for use in future studies.
