Age, obesity, and sex effects on insulin sensitivity and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function
Diabetes, 11/05/09
Karakelides H et al. – The results demonstrate that age–related reductions in insulin sensitivity are likely due to an age–related increase in adiposity rather than a consequence of advanced chronological age. The results also indicate that age–related decrease in muscle mitochondrial function is neither related to adiposity or insulin sensitivity. Of interest, a higher mitochondrial ATP production capacity was noted in the men, whereas the women were more insulin sensitive.
