Lipoprotein Kinetics in T1D

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Interventions
Other: Metabolic testing
Registration Number
NCT05179954
Lead Sponsor
University of Missouri-Columbia
Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand how type 1 diabetes (T1D) increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases (heart attack and stroke). To this end, the investigators will compare apolipoprotein and triglyceride kinetics in people wtih T1D and healthy control participants.

  • no use of diabetes medications other than insulin
  • HbA1c <6.5%, basal (overnight fasted)
  • no severe symptomatic hypoglycemic event associated with a seizure or requiring help from other people or a medical facility in the 6 months prior to screening or metabolic testing
Exclusion Criteria
  • more than 1.5 h of structured exercise/week
  • use of tobacco products, excessive amounts of alcohol, or dietary supplements and/or medications known to affect lipid metabolism
  • hypothyroidism or other disorders known to affect lipid metabolism
  • conditions that would make it impossible to complete the study protocol

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Apolipoprotein C turnover rateone time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

Apolipoprotein C turnover rate will be assessed by using an intravenous stable isotope labeled amino acid infusion

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Triglyceride turnover rateone time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)

Triglyceride turnover rate will be assessed by using an intravenous stable isotope labeled glycerol infusion

Apolipoprotein B-100 turnover rateone time, at baseline (this is a cross-sectional, observational study, no intervention)
