Insulin Regulation of Lipolysis and Lipolysis Proteins

NCT03866408

RandomizedParallel-groupTriple-blindBasic science

Summary

These studies will define the abnormalities in the adipocyte proteins that are involved in the failure of insulin to suppress lipolysis normally in humans with upper body obesity and will help discover the mechanism by which pioglitazone, a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes and improve insulin resistance, improves insulin-regulation of adipocyte fatty acid metabolism.
