Human studies

Our clinical and fundamental research studies novel mechanisms that may lead to the development of cardiometabolic diseases in humans, such as type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis. More particularly, we study the role of atherogenic lipoproteins and dysfunctional adipose tissue in this process. Furthermore, we examine the effect of various nutritional interventions as therapeutic tools that could reverse early cardiometabolic abnormalities. These projects will contribute to the prevention of type 2 diabetes in humans, particularly in subjects with obesity.
