Regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondria in response to obesity and exercise in mice and humans

Creator:

Batterson, Philip M.

Abstract:

Skeletal muscle mitochondria are highly plastic organelles, integral to whole-body health. High-fat diet (HFD) and exercise remodel the skeletal muscle mitochondria. Whereby, altered skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is linked to decreased skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity which can be reversed by exercise. However, the mechanisms that contribute to skeletal muscle remodeling...

A Promising Approach for Preventing of Diet-Induced Obesity and Fatty Liver Using Tetrahydroxanthohumol, A Synthetic Derivative of Xanthohumol

Creator:

Zhang, Yang

Abstract:

Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) affect over 1.9 billion adults and 12.7 million youth in the US. If all of today’s obese American youth become obese adults, the total societal costs over their lifetime may exceed $1.1 trillion. We show that feeding rodents a high-fat diet supplemented with xanthohumol (XN)...
