Fat and carbohydrate are the principal substrates that fuel aerobic ATP synthesis in skeletal
muscle. Most endogenous fat is stored as triacylglycerol in subcutaneous and deep visceral …

Obesity has become a worldwide problem of pandemic proportions. By definition, obesity is
the accumulation of excess body fat and it represents the long-term results of positive energy …

Both stable isotope methodology and fluorescence microscopy were applied to define the
use of intramuscular triglyceride (IMTG) stores as a substrate source during exercise on a …

This study was conducted to investigate skeletal muscle fatty acid (FA) and glycerol kinetics
and to determine the contribution of skeletal muscle to whole body FA and glycerol turnover …

Ketogenic diets (KDs) are reported to improve body weight, fat mass, and exercise
performance in humans. Unfortunately, most rodent studies have used a low-protein KD …

Women use more fat during endurance exercise as evidenced by a lower respiratory
exchange ratio (RER). The contribution of intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) to lipid oxidation …

The ability of growth hormone (GH) to stimulate lipolysis and cause insulin resistance in
skeletal muscle may be causally linked, but the mechanisms remain obscure. We …

Background: It is considered that the increasing intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) affects health
risks and muscle attenuation. Though body fat increases significantly with age in lean …

In the present study we investigated the relationship between plasma fatty acids (FA) and
intramuscular triacylglycerol (IMTAG) kinetics of healthy volunteers. With this aim [U‐13C] …

We hypothesized that improved glucose tolerance with rosiglitazone treatment would
coincide with decreased levels of im triacylglycerol (IMTG), diacylglycerol, and ceramide …
