Skeletal muscle glycolytic and oxidative enzyme capacities are determinants of insulin sensitivity and muscle composition in obese women.
Abstract
Regional fat distribution is an important determinant of insulin resistance in obesity. In the current study, the relationship between skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity, mid‐thigh muscle composition, and the metabolic profile of muscle was investigated. Muscle composition was assessed by computed tomography of the mid‐thigh, and by activities of marker enzymes of aerobic‐oxidative and glycolytic pathways and muscle fiber typing using biopsies of the vastus lateralis muscle. Muscle with reduced Hounsfield attenuation on computed tomography scans was increased in proportion to obesity, and was strongly related to insulin resistance, reduced muscle oxidative capacity, and increased anaerobic and glycolytic capacities by muscle. These findings suggest that as part of its expression of insulin resistance, skeletal muscle of obese individuals is also poorly equipped for substrate oxidation and manifests increased storage of fat.—Simoneau, J.‐A., Colberg, S. R., Thaete, F. L., Kelley, D. E. Skeletal muscle glycolytic and oxidative enzyme capacities are determinants of insulin sensitivity and muscle composition in obese women. FASEB J. 9, 273–278 (1995)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
