简要总结
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is increasing sharply around the world and obesity and sedentary lifestyles are driving the epidemic. Obesity is often, but not always present in patients with T2DM. The primary aim of this study is to understand the impact of the ratio of lean body mass (metabolically active skeletal muscle) to adipose tissue mass on the severity of insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell dysfunction in non-obese and obese Qatar residents with T2DM. An exercise programme aimed to increase lean mass and aerobic capacity will be initiated for a period 10 weeks in non-obese and obese early onset diabetics who are residents of Qatar. The effect of the exercise programme on total body fat, regional fat distribution and intramuscular and intrahepatic fat content using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in these groups of diabetics will be assessed and related to total body insulin sensitivity and β-cell function as measured with the gold standard methods: the euglycemic clamp technique and arginine stimulation. Genetic approaches including candidate gene testing and non-targeted miRNA expression profiling and metabolomics are employed. Physical fitness pre- and post-intervention will also be assessed. The impact of the exercise programme on conventional inflammatory markers, the phenotype of immune cells, metabolic hormones, and markers of oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress and heat shock response (Hsp-72, Hsp -40/DNAJB3 and Hsp-25) are studied in relation to metabolic changes. Through this study, the contributions of fitness, fatness and exercise training on insulin resistance and beta cell function will be elucidated in Qatari residents with T2DM.

入选标准
- •New onset T2DM (<5 years duration).

排除标准
- •Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus or history of hospitalization for hyperglycemia or suspected ketoacidosis.
- •T2DM prescribed insulin, or any other anti-diabetic agent other than metformin or DDP4 inhibitors.
- •HbA1c ≥8.0%.

- •Use of medications that affect glucose metabolism, glucose tolerance or body weight including oral corticosteroids and atypical anti-psychotics.
- •History of cardiovascular disease including previous myocardial infarction, congestive cardiac failure, valvular heart disease, stroke or the use of medication to alter coagulation including daily aspirin, anti-platelet drugs or any class of anticoagulant or a clinically significant abnormality on electrocardiogram that in the opinion of a consulting cardiologist should prevent participation.
- •History of chronic diseases associated with inflammation and/or the daily use of anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressant medications for arthritis, gout, rheumatologic disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, or viral infections including hepatitis B, C and HIV.
