Postprandial plasma triglyceride and cholesterol responses to a low-fat meal

TL;DR: Low-fat (high-carbohydrate) diets are known to raise fasting TG levels in patients who do not have fasting hyperchylomicronemia, and because relatively few patients have chylomicrons in the fasting state, these data suggest that such diets may lead to day long increases in plasmaTG levels in the majority of subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Nonesterified Fatty Acids on Glucose Metabolism After Glucose Ingestion

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the role of insulin in the impaired suppression of plasma nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs) after glucose ingestion and found that the greater insulin response compensates for the increased systemic glucose delivery by increasing peripheral glucose R d.
Journal ArticleDOI

C/EBPα regulates macrophage activation and systemic metabolism.

TL;DR: Results imply that C/EBPα is required for macrophage activation, which plays an important role in maintaining skeletal muscle energy metabolism, and expression levels of inflammatory cytokines were reduced in skeletal muscle of HF-fed MαKO mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo stimulation of the insulin receptor kinase in human skeletal muscle. Correlation with insulin-stimulated glucose disposal during euglycemic clamp studies.

TL;DR: Results are consistent with a role of the kinase in insulin action in vivo in humans and demonstrate the presence of a large amount of "spare kinase" for glucose disposal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photoaffinity Labeling of Insulin Receptors in Viable Cultured Human Lymphocytes: Demonstration of Receptor Shedding and Degradation

Paulos Berhanu, +1 more

TL;DR: Receptor photoaffinity labeling should provide a suitable approach for studies of the biologic fate of insulin receptors in cells that are targets for insulin action.
