Insulin Stimulated Vasodilation in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Not Applicable
Conditions
Type2 Diabetes
Interventions
Drug: Insulin clamp
Drug: BQ123 + BQ788
Registration Number
NCT04907838
Lead Sponsor
University of Southern Denmark
Brief Summary

This study evaluates the role of endothelin in insulin stimulated vasodilation and glucose uptake. The subjects will complete an hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp with and without blockade of the endothelin receptors.
