Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this project is to determine the extent to which administration of the dietary supplement phosphatidylserine (PS), a competitive inhibitor of ADAM17 sheddase activity, improves vascular function and insulin-stimulated leg blood flow in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Dietary Supplement: Placebo
  • Dietary Supplement: Phosphatidylserine
N/A

Detailed Description

As part of a randomized, double-blinded crossover design, each of the 34 subjects will complete 4 weeks of supplementation with 400mg of PS and 4 weeks of placebo. Subjects will have a 4-week washout period between regimens. Assessment visits (2) will occur after each of the 4-week dosing schemes and include: Vitals, DEXA scan for body composition, fasting blood work, brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) with near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), skeletal muscle biopsy, glycocalyx integrity assessment via Glycocheck, and 1-hour insulin clamp procedure with blood flow measurements.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Insulin-stimulated blood flow [week 4 and week 12]

    Measure of blood flow during insulin clamp. Leg blood flow measures will be performed non-invasively via Ultrasound.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Vascular function [week 4 and week 12]

    Flow mediated dilation (FMD) in arm. Brachial artery FMD measures will be performed non-invasively via Ultrasound.
