Cellular processes that sense and transmit metabolic changes are crucial for adaptation to
external signals. In this regard, autophagy provides energy upon nutrient deprivation and …

Mitochondrial dysfunction is thought to be involved in age-related loss of muscle mass and
function (sarcopenia). Since the degree of physical activity is vital for skeletal muscle …

Exercise has long been recognized as a powerful physiological stimulus for a wide variety of
metabolic adaptations with implications for health and performance. The metabolic effects of …

To understand the mechanisms in lipid-induced insulin resistance, a more physiological
approach is to enhance fatty acid (FA) availability through the diet. Nine healthy men …

Despite its negative effect on the cardiovascular system, waterpipe smoking (WPS) is
currently popular worldwide, especially among youth. This study investigated the effects of …

Aim Autophagy and unfolded protein response (UPR) appear to be important for skeletal
muscle homoeostasis and may be altered by exercise. Our aim was to investigate the effects …

Background Although the adiponectin signalling exerts exercise‐mimicking effects, whether
this pathway contributes to the anti‐ageing benefits of physical exercise has not been …

Focusing on daily nutrition is important for athletes to perform and adapt optimally to
exercise training. The major roles of an athlete's daily diet are to supply the substrates …

Identification of new mechanisms mediating insulin sensitivity is important to allow validation
of corresponding therapeutic targets. In this study, we first used a cellular model of skeletal …

Objective Acute administration of the main protein component of high-density lipoprotein,
apolipoprotein AI (ApoA-1), improves glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. The molecular …
