Human studies of the influence of aging and other factors on intermuscular fat (INTMF) were
reviewed. Intermuscular fat increased with weight loss, weight gain, or with no weight …

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important indicator for meat quality evaluation.
However, the key genes and molecular regulatory mechanisms affecting IMF deposition …

Intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is a distinct adipose depot described in early reports as
a 'fatty replacement'or 'muscle fat infiltration'that was linked to ageing and neuromuscular …

The function of adipocytes interspersed between myofiber fasciculi in skeletal muscle
physiology and physiopathology is poorly documented. Because regional differences in …

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 …

Aims/hypothesis: While lipid deposition in the skeletal muscle is considered to be involved in
obesity-associated insulin resistance, neutral intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) accumulation per …

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 …

The intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is a depot of adipocytes located between muscle
bundles. Several investigations have recently been carried out to define the phenotype, the …

Background Although obesity is strongly associated with diabetes, the greater prevalence of
diabetes in persons of African ancestry than in those of other ancestries cannot be explained …

Results: Macrophage and T-cell markers were upregulated in SM of obese compared with
lean humans. SM of obese mice had higher expression of inflammatory cytokines, with …
