Bioenergetic Phenotypes and Cardiometabolic Health
- Conditions
- Healthy
- Registration Number
- NCT04427462
- Lead Sponsor
- Arkansas Children's Hospital Research Institute
- Brief Summary
This research study is about how daily activities, behaviors, and fitness affect the health and function of blood cells and their mitochondria, which are the powerhouses of the cells. These small mitochondria inside the cells make energy, and are very important for the health of the body.
- Detailed Description
Determine the impact of physical activity and obesity status on circulating cells mitochondrial function (e.g., fat vs. carbohydrates combustion capacity, total oxidative capacity, mitochondrial number and proton leak).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Platelet mitochondrial respiration and its association with adiposity and peak aerobic capacity in children 8 to 10 years old. 8 days Platelet mitochondrial respiration from isolated platelets will be measured using a flux analyzer. Adiposity will be measured with dual X-ray absorptiometry, and peak aerobic capacity with an incremental cycle ergometer test. measure physical activity
