Low‐dose caffeine administration increases fatty acid utilization and mitochondrial turnover in C2C12 skeletal myotubes
Abstract Caffeine has been shown to directly increase fatty acid oxidation, in part, by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis. Mitochondrial biogenesis is often coupled with mitophagy, the autophagy‐lysosomal degradation of mitochondria. Increased mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy promote mitochon...
