Primary aging is the progressive and inevitable process of bodily deterioration during
adulthood. In skeletal muscle, primary aging causes defective mitochondrial energetics and …

This review focuses on two paralogue Rab GTPase activating proteins known as TBC1D1
Tre-2/BUB2/cdc 1 domain family (TBC1D) 1 and TBC1D4 (also called Akt Substrate of 160 …

Earlier studies have demonstrated that muscle insulin sensitivity to stimulate glucose uptake
is enhanced several hours after an acute bout of exercise. Using AICAR, we recently …

Enhanced skeletal muscle and whole body insulin sensitivity can persist for up to 24–48 h
after one exercise session. This review focuses on potential mechanisms for greater …

An acute bout of exercise increases glucose uptake in skeletal muscle by an insulin-
independent mechanism. In the period after exercise, insulin sensitivity to increased glucose …

Earlier research on rats with normal insulin sensitivity demonstrated that acute exercise
increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (GU) concomitant with greater phosphorylation …

The ability of insulin to stimulate glucose uptake in skeletal muscle is important for whole-
body glycemic control. Insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle glucose uptake is improved in the …

Diabetes is a global epidemic, of which type 2 diabetes makes up the majority of cases.
Nonetheless, for some individuals, type 2 diabetes is eminently preventable and treatable …

After menstruation the uterine spiral arteries are repaired through angiogenesis. This
process is tightly regulated by the paracrine communication between endometrial stromal …

One exercise session can elevate insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (ISGU) in skeletal
muscle, but the mechanisms remain elusive. Circumstantial evidence suggests a role for Akt …
