Purpose Skeletal muscles of older individuals have a larger amount of intramuscular
adipose tissue (IntraMAT) than those of younger individuals. It is not understood how aging …

We investigated the effect of physical activity on muscle tissue size and intramuscular
adipose tissue (IntraMAT) content in the thigh muscle groups of younger and older men …

Purpose. People with obesity, diabetes, and peripheral neuropathy have high levels of
intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) volume which has been inversely related to physical …

Objective. Intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) and sarcopenia may adversely impact
mobility function and physical activity. This study determined the association of locomotor …

Muscle's structural composition is an important factor underlying muscle strength and
physical function in older adults. There is an increasing amount of research to support the …

Background Fat infiltration within skeletal muscle is known as intramuscular fat (IMF), which
increases with aging. Studies have assessed IMF content, using the mid-thigh as a …

Background Age-related deposition of fat in skeletal muscle is associated with functional
limitations. Skeletal muscle fat may be present in people with preserved muscle mass or …

Background Insulin resistance is associated with the higher content of intermuscular
adipose tissue (IMAT) and the saturation of intramyocellular lipid (IMCL), but a paucity of …

Objective To examine the influence of intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) on muscle quality
(MQ) changes in older adults after 12 weeks of exercise training. Design Prospective cohort …

Introduction: Intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is a potential contributor to declining force
production and may be related to impaired central activation; therefore, the purpose of this …
