Gender differences in skeletal muscle substrate metabolism - molecular mechanisms and insulin sensitivity

It has become increasingly apparent that substrate metabolism is subject to gender specific regulation, and the aim of this review is to outline the available evidence of molecular gender differences in glucose and lipid metabolism of skeletal muscle. Female sex has been suggested to have a favorabl...
