FEmale Metabolic Risk and Androgens: an Irish Longitudinal (FEMAIL) Study
Androgen excess is the cardinal biochemical feature of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a lifelong metabolic disorder affecting 10% of women. Serum testosterone correlates with insulin resistance in women, however, there is an urgent need to improve our understanding of the association between androgens and the risk of type 2 diabetes. …
Countermeasures to Circadian Misalignment
Insufficient sleep and circadian misalignment are independent risk factors for the development of obesity and diabetes, yet few strategies exist to counter metabolic impairments when these behaviors are unavoidable. This project will examine whether avoiding food intake during the biological night can mitigate the impact of circadian misalignment on metabolic …
A Multi-cohort Study of Safety, Efficacy, PK and PD of GNR-055 in Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II
This is phase 2/3 study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of the investigational product GNR-055 in MPS II (Hunter syndrome) patients of different age groups.
Nicotinamide Riboside Supplementation and Exercise Training to Promote Healthy Longevity
The prevalence of age-related chronic diseases (like obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases) is mounting worldwide, reaching pandemic proportions. These age-related chronic diseases are associated with diminished skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in humans. Nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NAD) is a coenzyme that regulates mitochondrial function, therefore, plays an important role …
A Clinical Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Tolerance of a Berberine-based Nutraceutical Formula to Aid Blood Sugar Regulation and Metabolism
This randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy of Diaberine, a berberine-based nutraceutical, in aiding blood sugar regulation and metabolism in 80 participants over 24 weeks.
Metabolic Effects of Linoleic Acid-Rich Oil Compared to a Blend Oil in Adults With Insulin Resistance
Linoleic acid (LA), the predominant omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid in human diets, has been associated with improved lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity compared with saturated fats. However, its role in metabolic health remains debated due to the limited number of well-controlled intervention studies. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate …
Gut Microbiota-dependent Health Impacts of Haskap Berries
Polyphenol-rich Haskap berries (Haskap) have untapped therapeutic potential to improve human health, and agricultural producers in northern U.S. states are poised to increase production if consumer demand increases. A critical knowledge gap is that little is known about the interactions between gut microbes and Haskap polyphenols to produce bioactive metabolites …
Improving Coronary Vascular Health in Women
Women with HIV have an increased risk of having a myocardial infarction (heart attack) as compared to women without HIV. One of the mechanisms underlying the increased risk of myocardial infarction among women with HIV may involve reduced ability to increase blood flow through large and small coronary arteries at …
Insomnia´s Impact on DNA Stability, Cardio-metabolic Health and Lifestyle Behaviors
Insomnia is a highly prevalent sleep disorder worldwide, with an increasing incidence in athletes, older adults, university students, and individuals with metabolic syndrome. This disorder has been associated with metabolic dysfunction, cardiovascular diseases, and genetic instability. Recent evidence suggests that insomnia negatively impacts cardiorespiratory fitness, insulin sensitivity, and overall health …
Campath/Fludarabine/Melphalan Transplant Conditioning for Non-Malignant Diseases
The hypothesis for this study is that a preparative regimen that maximizes host immunosuppression without myeloablation will be well tolerated and sufficient for engraftment of donor hematopoietic cells. It is also to determine major toxicities from these conditioning regimens, within the first 100 days after transplantation.
