Journal ArticleDOI

UCP-mediated energy depletion in skeletal muscle increases glucose transport despite lipid accumulation and mitochondrial dysfunction

TL;DR: Results suggest that UCP-H mice have a mitochondrial myopathy due to depleted energy stores sufficient to compromise growth and impair muscle function, and suggests that excess intramyocellular lipid and mitochondrial dysfunction are not sufficient to cause insulin resistance in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

ASXL2 Regulates Glucose, Lipid, and Skeletal Homeostasis

TL;DR: ASXL2 is a master regulator of skeletal, lipid, and glucose homeostasis and promotes osteoclast mitochondrial biogenesis in a process mediated by PGC-1β but independent of c-Fos.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholesteryl ester storage disease: complex molecular effects of chronic lovastatin therapy.

TL;DR: Lovastatin therapy in CESD appears to be clinically beneficial and has complex effects on lipid metabolism that may include a dominant inhibitory effect on hepatic lipoprotein production, posttranscriptionally mediated induction of the LDL receptor, and alterations of LDL particles that interfere with their clearance by the LDL receptors in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of osteoprogenitors in vascular calcification.

TL;DR: Studies of the effects of diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, estrogens and glucocorticoids on calcifying vascular cell function provide insight into the relationship between common human disease states and vascular calcification.
