简要总结
Muscle insulin resistance is a hallmark of upper body obesity (UBO) and Type 2 diabetes (T2DM). It is unknown whether muscle free fatty acid (FFA) availability or intramyocellular fatty acid trafficking is responsible for muscle insulin resistance, although it has been shown that raising FFA with Intralipid can cause muscle insulin resistance within 4 hours. The investigators do not understand to what extent the incorporation of FFA into ceramides or diacylglycerols (DG) affect insulin signaling and muscle glucose uptake. The investigators propose to alter the profile and concentrations of FFA of healthy, non-obese adults using an overnight, intra-duodenal palm oil infusion vs. an overnight intra-duodenal Intralipid infusion (both compared to saline control). The investigators will compare the muscle FFA storage into intramyocellular triglyceride, intramyocellular fatty acid trafficking, activation of the insulin signaling pathway and glucose disposal rates, providing the first measure of how different FFA profiles alter muscle FFA trafficking and insulin action at the whole body and cellular/molecular levels. By identifying which steps in the insulin signaling pathway are most affected, the investigators will determine the site-specific effect of ceramides and/or DG on different degrees of insulin resistance.
Hypothesis 1: Palm oil infusion will result in abnormal FFA trafficking into intra-myocellular ceramides and abnormal insulin signaling.
Hypothesis 2: Intralipid infusion will result in abnormal FFA trafficking into intra-myocellular saturated DG and abnormal insulin signaling.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in fatty acid enrichment of intramyocellular signaling molecules before and after a euglycemic, hyperinsulinemic clamp
时间窗: 18 hours
The study involves the use of a hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp to compare fatty acid enrichments in intramyocellular signaling molecules. The first half of the study will be the "pre-clamp" stage. During this stage, volunteers will receive an intravenous infusion of C13-labelled palmitate as a tracer in order for enrichment calculations to be performed pre-clamp. One muscle biopsy will be obtained to measure fatty acid enrichment within intramyocellular ceramides, diacylglycerols, long-chain acylcarnitines, and intramyocellular triglycerides. The insulin clamp will then commence, and volunteers will simultaneously receive an intravenous infusion of a second tracer, D-9 palmitate. This tracer will allow us to calculate enrichments during the insulin clamp stage of the study. A second muscle biopsy will be performed at the end of the insulin clamp, and similar enrichment calculations will be performed.
