What the study is about

The purpose of this study is to understand how cells of the immune system use the common sugar glucose to fuel energy production and as a building block within the cell. Investigators will intravenously infuse a non-radioactive glucose tracer into participants over a few hours and collect immune cells from the blood to track uptake and usage of this glucose within these immune cells.

Being studied: 13C6-Glucose

Conditions: Glucose; Metabolism; Isotope Labeling; Immune System and Related Disorders
