Are Alterations in Skeletal Muscle Mitochondria a Cause or Consequence of Insulin Resistance?
As a major site of glucose uptake following a meal, skeletal muscle has an important role in whole-body glucose metabolism. Evidence in humans and animal models of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes suggests that alterations in mitochondrial characteristics accompany the development of skeletal...
