30-65 years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

The overall aim of this pilot study is to investigate the effects of exercise training on skeletal muscle and adipose tissue insulin resistance in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age 30-65 years
  • Men and women
  • Body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 45 kg/m2
  • Sedentary (1 day or less per week of structured exercise)
  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus determined by self-report or by a fasting glucose \>126mg/dl
  • Weight stable (± 2 kg) for prior 3 months
  • Willing to commit to the schedule of assessment visits, including the exercise intervention

Exclusion

  • Currently taking insulin, injectable incretin mimetics and thiazolidinediones
  • Taking more than two glucose-lowering medications
  • Resting blood pressure ≥ 160/100 mm Hg
  • Triglycerides ≥ 500 mg/dL
  • Any renal, cardiac, liver, lung, or neurological disease that in the opinion of the principal investigator would compromise participant safety or the participants' ability to complete the exercise training protocol
  • Any significant disease or unstable medical condition (i.e., coronary heart disease, chronic renal failure, chronic hepatic disease, severe pulmonary disease)
  • Presence of clinically significant abnormalities on electrocardiogram (ECG) that is a contra-indication to exercise training
  • Pulse check ("Allen test") indicates participant has poor blood flow in the hands
  • Cancer (active malignancy with or without concurrent chemotherapy; except for basal cell carcinoma)
  • Pregnancy during the previous 6 months, lactating, or planned pregnancy in the next year
  • Use of drugs known to affect energy metabolism or body weight: including, but not limited to orlistat, sibutramine, ephedrine, phenylpropanolamine, corticosterone, etc
  • Current treatment with blood thinners or anti-platelet medications that cannot be safely stopped for testing procedures
  • Participant is currently taking anti-inflammatory medication or has had inflammatory medication within 1 week prior to screening (including over the counter formulations: e.g. Aleve, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Naproxen, low dose ASA.
  • New onset (\<3 months on a stable regime) hormone replacement therapy
  • Current use of beta-adrenergic blocking agents
  • Major surgery on the abdomen, pelvis, or lower extremities within previous 3 months
  • Increased liver function tests (AST/ALT/GGT/or alkaline phosphatase greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal)
  • Abnormal blood count/anemia, blood transfusion or blood donation within the last 2 months
  • Current smokers (smoking within the past 3 months prior to screening visit, including any/all tobacco products)
  • Current drug or alcohol abuse/dependence
  • Metal implants (pace-maker, aneurysm clips) based on investigator's judgment at screening
  • Not physically capable of performing the exercise required of the study protocols
  • Plans to be away \>2 weeks in the next 3 months
  • Unable to participate in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) assessments due to physical limitations of equipment tolerances (e.g. MRI bore size) based on investigator's judgment at screening.
  • Unable to tolerate MRI or claustrophobia.
  • Nickel allergy
  • Lidocaine allergy
  • Unable or unwilling to communicate with staff or to provide written informed consent
