Effect of Weight Loss on Intermuscular Adipose Tissue (IMAT) Signaling
The goal of this intervention study is to learn about how weight loss impacts molecular signaling of intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) in individuals with obesity. The main question it aims to answer is how inflammatory molecules secreted by IMAT promote muscle insulin resistance and inflammation, and how these same molecules …
Low Dose Fat-Induced Insulin Resistance
The primary goal of this study is to determine the dose of fatty acids that acutely induces mild insulin resistance in healthy volunteers. We hypothesize that a low-dose of fatty acid infusion (Intralipid/heparin) will cause a mild insulin resistance. The dose of fatty acid infusion that reliably causes mild insulin …
Laser Posterior Nasal Nerve Neurolysis
This clinical trial aims to learn if laser posterior nasal nerve neurolysis can treat chronic rhinitis in adults. It will also learn about the safety of laser posterior nasal nerve neurolysis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does laser posterior nasal nerve neurolysis improve chronic rhinitis symptoms? What …
Androgen Receptor Signaling and Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Expression
The goal of this research study is to determine whether hormonal therapies used early in the course of prostate cancer could increase the amount of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) as detected by PET/CT scans for participants with recurrent prostate cancer. This study will measure PSMA levels using standard PET/CT scans …
Using a Contact Dermatitis Model With Biologic Medications to Study Skin Inflammation
The purpose of this study is to answer: how do inflammation and anti-inflammatory skin therapies work in the skin? Inflammation is a protective response from the body's immune system to injury, disease, or irritation. It is a process by which your body's white blood cells and the things they make …
Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss With and Without Exercise
Study Purpose: The combination of caloric restriction and exercise is the most common first-line treatment for obesity-related disorders, yet we know very little about how these two very different treatments work together. A deeper understanding about mechanisms underlying the health benefits of adding exercise to a weight loss program will …
FAPI PET for Lung Fibrosis
This is a prospective exploratory biodistribution study in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The purpose of this research study is to determine where and to which degree the FAPI tracer (68Ga-FAPI-46) accumulates in normal and fibrotic lung tissues of patients with interstitial lung disease. The study will include patients …
Immune Responses to Gluten
This is a study of immune responses after eating gluten powder in people with celiac disease and healthy controls.
Skeletal Muscle Function in Interstitial Lung Disease
Dyspnea (i.e. breathlessness) and exercise intolerance are common symptoms for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), yet it is not known why. It has been suggested that muscle dysfunction may contribute to dyspnea and exercise intolerance in ILD. Our study aims to: i) examine differences in the structure and function …
Effect of Sleep Extension on Ceramides in People with Overweight and Obesity
The overall goal is to determine how a sleep extension intervention (increasing time in bed) in individuals who maintain less than 6.5 hours sleep per night affects their plasma ceramides and insulin sensitivity. Participants will undergo a randomized controlled trial, with sleep extension (intervention) and healthy lifestyle (control) groups. The …
