Summary

In this research study, Investigators will be comparing the effects of a medication Saxagliptin versus placebo (a similar looking pill that contains no medication) on inflammation in the body.

Research Hypothesis DPP-4 inhibition by saxagliptin (ONGLYZA™) reduces adipose tissue inflammation in obese individuals and this is characterized by decreases in a) reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, b) toll-like receptors (TLR) and NF-kappa B pathway activation, c) expression of pro-inflammatory genes, d) macrophage infiltration, and e) secretion of pro-inflammatory factors.
