Optimizing the Beneficial Health Effects of Exercise for Diabetes: Focus on the Liver!
Due to the western lifestyle, correlated with a high calorie intake and low physical activity, obesity is becoming a major health problem. All over the world obesity reaches epidemic proportions. Obesity is closely linked to type 2 diabetes, a multi-factorial disease that increases the presence of multiple health problems. Until now, exercise and dietary intervention seem to be the single most effective interventions to treat obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In obesity and type 2 diabetes, not only fat accumulation in adipose tissue, but also fat accumulation in the peripheral tissues occurs. Fat accumulation in peripheral tissues has been associated with insulin resistance. Exercise seems to have a positive effect on the accumulation of fat in the peripheral tissue and on the insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetic patients.
In this study we want to investigate if a prolonged exercise training program can lower the intrahepatic lipid content and can improve the metabolism of the liver in type 2 diabetic patients and patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and to examine if this leads to improvements in metabolic risk markers. To this end, we will include investigation of the effect of exercise on adipose tissue (inflammatory markers and adipocyte size) and skeletal muscle (ex vivo lipid metabolism) to incorporate the effect of exercise on liver, muscle and adipose tissue and to clarify the crosstalk between these tissues in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes.

Euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp for measurement of insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility
Aikaikkuna: 16 weeks
|
After taking fasting blood samples, a primed constant infusion of glucose is initiated.
Plasma glucose levels are clamped at ~5 mmol/L by variable co-infusion of 20 % glucose.
Every 5 minutes, blood is sampled for immediate determination of plasma glucose concentration.
Glucose infusion rate is adjusted to obtain plasma glucose levels of ~5 mmol/L (euglycemia).
A bolus of insulin is then infused.
Before and during steady state, substrate oxidation is measured using an indirect calorimeter, which determines metabolic flexibility.
