Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is closely associated with the development of heart failure, which might be related with impaired substrate metabolism and accumulation of myocardial lipids (MYCL). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of an acute pharmacological inhibition of adipose tissue lipolysis leading to reduced availability of circulating FFA on MYCL and heart function in T2DM.8 patients with T2DM (Age: 56 ± 11; BMI: 28 ± 3.5...
