Exercise and Inflammation in the Elderly (IRIS)
Exercise, Inflammation and Pro-thrombotic Modulators in the Elderly
調査の概要
詳細な説明
This study will compare the effects of 6 month trial of aerobic exercise (AEX) vs. weight loss (WL) in older individuals on:
- adipokine secretion and expression (tumor necrosis factor alpha, adiponectin);
- adipose tissue and skeletal muscle inflammatory proximal receptor expression (adiponectin and tumor necrosis factor alpha expression) and signaling pathways; and
- whether the changes in signal transduction are associated with changes in peripheral whole body insulin sensitivity by a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp.
The prevention and treatment of insulin resistance, the metabolic syndrome, and their CVD complications through exercise and weight loss could improve Veterans' health and reduce health care costs. Knowledge of their effectiveness has important implications for the cardiovascular health of Veterans given the widespread adverse health effects of chronic inflammation on vascular biology, skeletal muscle function and insulin action.

Insulin Sensitivity
時間枠:Baseline and 6 month
|
Insulin resistance is defined as a reduction in glucose utilization rate elicited by a given insulin concentration.
Glucose utilization is measured during a three hour hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and is presented as a measure of insulin sensitivity.
This is one of the most sophisticated methods to measure insulin sensitivity.
