Background: Periods of inactivity experienced by older adults induce nutrient anabolic resistance creating a cascade of skeletal muscle transcriptional and translational aberrations contributing to mu
Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are metabolic disorders influenced by lifestyle and genetic factors, and characterized by insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, a prominent site of glucose disposal.
Metabolically healthy skeletal muscle is characterized by the ability to switch easily between glucose and fat oxidation, whereas loss of this ability seems to be related to insulin resistance. The ai
