Effect of Rosiglitazone on In-vivo Angiogenic Potential of Human Adipose Tissue
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Rosiglitazone and Placebo for Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance. Completed, enrolled 35 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Insulin resistance is a common condition that can lead to type 2 diabetes. One of the commonly prescribed diabetes medications, called rosiglitazone, works by decreasing insulin resistance. Rosiglitazone appears to work on fat cells. Animal studies suggest that rosiglitazone may work by increasing blood vessel growth in fat cells. The purpose of this research is to see if rosiglitazone also increases blood vessel growth in human fat cells. The investigators will compare results from before and after being on rosiglitazone for 6 weeks.
