Randomized Controlled TrialIntralipid/Heparin Infusion Alters Brain Metabolites Assessed With 1H-MRS Spectroscopy in Young Healthy Men.
We previously demonstrated that insulin infusion altered metabolite concentrations in cerebral tissues assessed with proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in young subjects with high insulin sensitivity, but not in those with low insulin sensitivity. Fat overload is an important factor leading to insulin resistance. ⋯ Acute circulating FFA elevation influenced cerebral metabolites in healthy humans and lipid-induced insulin resistance could be partly responsible for these effects.
