Study Summary

This trial found that aerobic exercise decreases inflammation in type 2 diabetics by reducing the activity of a protein called RAGE.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Quantify the change in basal circulating sRAGE after 12-weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training.
Secondary outcome measures
Quantify the change in aerobic capacity (VO2max) after 12-weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training.
Quantify the change in basal muscle RAGE expression after 12-weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training.
Quantify the change in insulin sensitivity after 12-weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Aerobic Exercise GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Aerobic Exercise (AE) subjects will come in for supervised, aerobic exercise training sessions 5 days a week for 12 weeks. Training will progress from 55% VO2max for week 1 (40 min session), to 60-65% VO2max for week 2 (50 min session), to ~70% VO2max for all other weeks (50 min session). Subjects will perform a warm-up and cool down (~5 min each) that includes stretching exercises. Subjects will wear heart rate monitors during each training session to provide feedback of target heart rate. Intensity, duration, resting and exercise heart rates, and blood pressures will be recorded for each session. Follow-up VO2max tests will be performed at weeks 4 and 8 to monitor progress and adjust AE training intensity.
Group II: Control GroupActive Control1 Intervention
During the 12 week control period, subjects are to maintain their normal, daily-living activities. Control group participants will be given the option to enroll in the AE training group after completion of the original Control group trial period.
