Trial summary

The nature of dietary lipids, age and perivisceral adiposity could alter the postprandial inflammatory response. It is supposed that there is a relationship between the postprandial inflammatory response and the repartition of fat and lean mass, which could partially explain the muscle mass loss with age.

About this study

The nature of dietary lipids, age and perivisceral adiposity could alter the postprandial inflammatory response. It is supposed that there is a relationship between the postprandial inflammatory response and the repartition of fat and lean mass, which could partially explain the muscle mass loss with age.

The aim of this study is to compare the inflammatory response of a normal meal or high fat meal (from different fatty acids sources) between young lean and young obese and aged lean and aged obese men.

Read the detailed description

32 healthy volunteers will be separated into four groups: 8 young lean men, 8 young obese men, 8 aged lean men and 8 aged obese men. They will come to the center four times after inclusion, with 2 to 4 weeks wash out each time. At the first visit they will undergo different test to evaluate their body composition, glucose tolerance, resting energy expenditure, and muscular strength. At the other three visits, people will undergo a kinetic blood sampling, urine and biopsies of adipose tissue over a period of 8h after ingestion of a test meal. The different meals tested (Oleic acid vs palmitic acid vs no lipid) will be given in a random way over the three visits. Before each of these three visits, a controlled diet will be established. At the last visit body composition and muscular strength will be evaluated.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Inflammatory profile by interleukin-6 (IL6) concentration in plasma.

    Measured: six times per day (kinetic: T0 to T480) on three interventional days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Muscular strength, Body composition

    Measured: Once at the first and at the last visit

  2. Total plasma lipids (total cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, Triglycerides (TG), non-esterified fatty acid, Plasma hormonal profile, Plasma inflammatory profile, Markers of Endothelial function, Plasma lipopolysaccharide concentration.

    Measured: Six times per day (kinetic: T0 to T480), on three interventional days

  3. Pro-inflammatory cytokines expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue

    Measured: Twice per day (before the meal and 6 hours after), on three interventional days

  4. Urinary metabolomic profile

    Measured: Three times per days (T0,T240,T480), on three interventional days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mashed potatoes, Mashed potatoes + Oleic acid and mashed potatoes + Palmitic acid in people with Healthy and Obesity, run by Yves Boirie at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Inflammatory profile by interleukin-6 (IL6) concentration in plasma. (time frame: six times per day (kinetic: T0 to T480) on three interventional days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Mar 2015.
