Introduction: The mouse skeletal muscle is composed of four distinct fiber types that differ in contractile function, number of mitochondria and metabolism. Every muscle group has a specific composition and distribution of the four fiber types. Until now, three genes (CnA, PGC1α and PPARδ) are ident...

Polyphenolic compounds, such as resveratrol, have recently received widespread interest due to their ability to mimic effects of calorie restriction. The objective of the present study was to gain more insight into the effects of 30 days resveratrol supplementation on adipose tissue morphology and u...

Obesity is characterized by excess energy storage which results in dysfunctional white adipose tissue (WAT) and in turn leads to metabolic diseases. Lifestyle changes especially calorie restriction (CR) reduces the risk for age and obesity-associated complications. The impact of CR on obesity has ma...

Dietary fat quality may influence skeletal muscle lipid handling and fat accumulation, thereby modulating insulin sensitivity. Objective: To examine acute effects of meals with various fatty acid (FA) compositions on skeletal muscle FA handling and postprandial insulin sensitivity in obese insulin r...

An 8-week high fat palm oil diet causes obesity and insulin resistance in C57BL/6J mice, but induces only small changes in the muscle transcriptome. Introduction: The metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of metabolic abnormalities linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular dis...

The goal of this experiment is to compare the transcriptional response to a metabolic stressor (glucose bolus) between healthy and insulin resistant mouse liver. Mice with an isogenic background (C57BL/6J mice) were fed diets for 12 weeks containing either 10 or 45% fat by energy (mainly palm oil) a...
