Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to learn if Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) medications enhance beneficial properties of epicardial adipose tissue including metabolic flexibility, insulin sensitivity, decreased cell size and reduced inflammation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Ertugliflozin (treated tissue)

Adipose tissue samples collected from participants were treated with Ertugliflozin at a concentration of 25 µM in vitro. Tissue samples were incubated with Ertugliflozin to evaluate its effects on lipolysis, inflammation, and gene expression in epicardial, pericardial, and subcutaneous adipose tissues

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ertugliflozin

Intervention Type DRUG

Adipose tissue samples collected from participants were treated with Ertugliflozin at a concentration of 25 µM in vitro. This treatment was applied in a laboratory setting to assess the effects of Ertugliflozin on lipolysis, inflammatory cytokine release, and gene expression in epicardial, pericardial, and subcutaneous adipose tissue
