Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Metabolic Study Visit

Arm Description

Participants will complete a study visit for metabolic phenotyping and determination of the impact of hyperinsulinemia on outcomes of interest.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Changes in skeletal muscle lipid content during hyperinsulinemia compared with basal resting conditions
Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (targeted lipidomics) will be used to assess species-level changes in skeletal muscle lipid content in biopsy samples collected before and after the insulin infusion to induce mild hyperinsulinemia.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity during hyperinsulinemia compared with basal resting conditions
High-resolution respirometry will be used to assess changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity in biopsy samples collected before and after the insulin infusion to induce mild hyperinsulinemia.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Our objective in this study is to identify the extent to which insulin drives the accumulation of lipids in skeletal muscle of humans. We will test the hypothesis that 4-hours of mild hyperinsulinemia will result in significant muscle lipid accumulation and that such effects will be similar in lean and overweight/obese humans.

Arm Title
Metabolic Study Visit
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
Participants will complete a study visit for metabolic phenotyping and determination of the impact of hyperinsulinemia on outcomes of interest.
Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic Clamp
Intervention Description
Participants will be administered a constant-rate insulin infusion (to induce mild hyperinsulinemia), with an infusion of dextrose to maintain blood glucose concentration (to maintain euglycemia).
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Changes in skeletal muscle lipid content during hyperinsulinemia compared with basal resting conditions
Description
Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (targeted lipidomics) will be used to assess species-level changes in skeletal muscle lipid content in biopsy samples collected before and after the insulin infusion to induce mild hyperinsulinemia.
Time Frame
Muscle samples will be collected in basal and hyperinsulinemic conditions separated by ~4.5 hours during the metabolic study visit
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity during hyperinsulinemia compared with basal resting conditions
Description
High-resolution respirometry will be used to assess changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity in biopsy samples collected before and after the insulin infusion to induce mild hyperinsulinemia.
Time Frame
Muscle samples will be collected in basal and hyperinsulinemic conditions separated by ~4.5 hours during the metabolic study visit
