ENHANCED INSULIN SIGNALING FOLLOWING CONTRACTILE ACTIVITY IS BLUNTED IN MYOTUBES FROM SEVERELY OBESE INDIVIDUALS WITH OR WITHOUT TYPE 2 DIABETES
(East Carolina University, 2018-06-11)Introduction: Regular exercise has been known to improve insulin sensitivity in obese/ Type 2 Diabetic (T2D) individuals. However, some obese and T2D individuals do not respond well to regular exercise in their metabolic ... -
The Influence of Energy Expenditure on Mitochondrial Functions, Oxidative Stress and Insulin Resistance under Metabolic Oversupply Conditions
(East Carolina University, 2011)Mitochondrial respiratory capacity and oxidative stress have been implicated in the development of insulin resistance (IR) and type II diabetes. A causative role of mitochondrial oxidative stress in the etiology of ... -
Mitochondrial Oxidative Capacity In Human Skeletal Muscle: Association with Plasma Lactate Concentration
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-11)ABSTRACT Background: Metabolic disease is a growing concern for public health. Obesity and Type II Diabetes are an epidemic and a phenotype for insulin resistance in human skeletal muscle. A reduced mitochondrial function ... -
Potential Mechanisms for Amelioration of Type 2 Diabetes Following Bariatric Surgery
(East Carolina University, 2011)Severe obesity and Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) are worldwide health concerns reaching epidemic proportions. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been shown to elicit a rapid and durable improvement and/or remission of T2DM in ... -
A single dose of metformin improves whole body insulin sensitivity and alters cellular redox state in skeletal muscle of Zucker fa/fa rats
(East Carolina University, 2010)Energy balance is considered a fundamental requirement of life forms from single cell organisms to higher mammals such as humans. Unfortunately, our species has also discovered the detrimental metabolic responses to excess ...
