Brief Summary
The purpose of this experimental study is to investigate whether an acute lipid infusion added marine n-3 fatty acids produces effects on insulin sensitivity in subjects with type 2 diabetes, when compared with an acute lipid infusion without marine n-3 fatty acids. Furthermore other effects on intermediary metabolism are tested for.

Intralipid with/without Omegaven
EXPERIMENTALLipid infusion with/without marine n-3 fatty acids
Interventions
Intralipid®: the 500 ml 20% Intralipid will be infused during a hyperinsulinemic clamp. Infusion rate will increase from 50 to 100 ml/hour the first 30 min and then continue at 100 ml/hour for the next 210 min, infusion duration 240 min (4 hours) in all. Intralipid® + Omegaven®: In the 500 ml 20% Intralipid 100 ml will be replaced by 100 ml 10% Omegaven and infused during the hyperinsulinemic clamp as described for Intralipid only. Heparin (0.4 U/kg/min) will be added to both lipid emulsions. Content of marine n-3 fatty acids in 100 ml Omegaven will be 1.25-2.82 g EPA and 1.44-3.09 g DHA (seasoning variations of n-3 fatty acids in fish oil).
