Columbus Trial Summary
This trial will help researchers understand how different proteins and genetic codes affect muscles after exercise.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy men and women aged 18-40 who don't have Type 2 Diabetes or significant diseases affecting the kidneys, heart, liver, lungs, or nerves. Participants must not use certain weight-affecting drugs and should be free from recent surgeries or conditions that affect blood flow. They can't smoke or consume alcohol/caffeine before tests.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to identify muscle-secreted factors that contribute to exercise's benefits by analyzing participants' responses to physical activity. Researchers will look for proteins and genetic markers linked with improved lipid oxidation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention in this trial is exercise, side effects might include typical post-exercise symptoms such as muscle soreness, fatigue, and increased heart rate during activity.
