Study Summary
Aging is a major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Approximately 50% of subjects aged ≥65 have diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance, a pre-diabetic state. Purpose: In the proposed study, the investigators will test the hypotheses that the decrease in fat oxidation that occurs in muscle from older human subjects is secondary to an age-mediated reduction in AMPK signaling, in vivo, and that upregulating AMPK signaling through exercise training will result in (and correlate with) increased fat oxidation, reduced intramyocellular lipids, and improved insulin action.
