This study aims to investigate how moderate wine consumption influences circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) in healthy adults. EVs are small particles released by cells that carry proteins, lipids, and genetic material, and play important roles in communication between cells. Participants will consume a single serving of red or white wine, …
Metabolic flexibility is a process in which the body can switch energy substrates in different physiological states. This flexibility plays an important role in an individual's health because losing it increases the risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. Considering that humans spend most of their …
Black individuals are more likely to have decreased insulin sensitivity which results in a high risk for the development of cardiometabolic disease. The reasons for this are incompletely understood. Natriuretic peptides (NPs) are hormones produced by the heart that play a role in regulating the metabolic health of an individual. …
Background Creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is a genetic disorder that mainly affects the brain in males. CTD causes intellectual disability that can be mild to severe. People with CTD may have seizures and behavioral issues. They may have slow growth and tire easily. CTD may sometimes be confused with autism …
Investigating the effect of oxytocin on pancreatic endocrine functions by determining insulin and glucagon secretion within physiological ranges of plasma glucose.
The digestion of carbohydrates begins in the mouth through the salivary enzyme amylase which breaks food starches into maltose and disaccharides. The mouth also has a large community of microorganisms which include bacteria, fungi, viruses and protozoa that can also assist in the digestion of carbohydrates. Mouthwashes containing antibacterial compounds …
This research study collects health-related information and blood samples to better understand how body composition, lifestyle habits, and diet influence meta-inflammatory monocytes (MiMos) in adolescents. The hypothesis of this study is that adolescents at risk for metabolic disease have enhanced MiMo related activities leading to insulin resistance.
This randomized study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 12 with monthly (Q4W \[≤31 days\]) dosing of HST101 (lerodalcibep) 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or very-high/high risk for ASCVD including Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) on a stable diet and …
This study is designed to estimate the efficacy and toxicity of familial HLA mismatched bone marrow transplants in patients with non-malignant disease who are less than 21 years of age and could benefit from the procedure.
Many people who receive a kidney transplant develop problems with how their body processes sugar (glucose). This includes conditions like prediabetes and diabetes, which can lead to more health issues, such as heart problems and infections. One of the main medications used after a kidney transplant, called tacrolimus, can contribute …
