Background The effects of diet-induced obesity on skeletal muscle function are largely
unknown, particularly as it relates to changes in oxidative metabolism and morphology …

Short‐term consumption of a high‐fat diet (HFD) can result in an oxidative shift in adult
skeletal muscle. However, the impact of HFD on young, growing muscle is largely unknown …

Background Diet-induced obesity is a rising health concern which can lead to the
development of glucose intolerance and muscle insulin resistance and, ultimately, type II …

High-fat diets (HFDs) have been shown to interfere with skeletal muscle energy metabolism
and cause peripheral insulin resistance. However, understanding of HFD impact on skeletal …

Obesity and ensuing disorders are increasingly prevalent in young populations. Prolonged
exposure to high-fat diets (HFD) and excessive lipid accumulation were recently suggested …

The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MS) is rapidly increasing all over the world.
Consequently, there is an urgent need for more effective intervention strategies. Both animal …

Diet-induced obesity (DIO) is associated with glucose intolerance, insulin resistance (IR),
and an increase in intramyocellular lipids (IMCL), which may lead to disturbances in glucose …

The effects of obesity on different musculoskeletal tissues are not well understood. The
glycolytic quadriceps muscles are compromised with obesity, but due to its high oxidative …

Prolonged high-fat diets (HFDs) can cause intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) accumulation that
may negatively affect muscle function. We investigated the duration of a HFD required to …

Inter-individual variability in weight gain and loss under energy surfeit and deficit conditions,
respectively, are well recognized but poorly understood phenomena. We documented …
