Extracellular vesicles, insulin, and exercise in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how tiny particles called extracellular vesicles affect how your body uses insulin, and whether exercise can make a difference. It is for people with type 2 diabetes (or normal blood sugar) who are not very active and have been on diabetes medication for a long time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 30 and 80 years old.

This study tests if adding nose spray insulin and exercise together improves blood sugar control and brain function in older adults with type 2 diabetes.
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training can improve how your body uses insulin. It is for people with type 2 diabetes who are not on insulin and have had diabetes for 1 to 5 years.
This study looks at how low physical activity, insulin resistance in small blood vessels, and cardiorespiratory fitness connect to diabetes and blood sugar control. You may be eligible if you are generally sedentary and fit within the weight range, and if you do not have certain heart, lung, nerve, or medication factors.
This study looks at how very small particles in the body (“extracellular vesicles”) relate to insulin action and how the body handles sugar. It may help researchers understand why some people have better or worse insulin responses.
This study looks at how exercise and protein work together in people aged 65 and older, either with or without type 2 diabetes. You will be asked to exercise and may receive a protein supplement to see how your body uses protein.
This study looks at how exercise affects gut bacteria in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help explain why physical activity improves diabetes control.
