Journal ArticleDOI
Intramyocellular triglyceride content is a determinant of in vivo insulin resistance in humans: a 1H-13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy assessment in offspring of type 2 diabetic parents.

TL;DR: 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy revealed intramyocellular abnormalities of lipid metabolism associated with whole body insulin resistance in subjects at high risk of developing diabetes, and might be useful tools for noninvasively monitoring these alterations in diabetes and prediabetic states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bidirectional modulation of insulin action by amino acids.
TL;DR: Data support the hypothesis that amino acids act as specific positive signals for maintenance of protein stores, while inhibiting other actions of insulin at multiple levels and indicate crosstalk between hormonal and nutritional signals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of insulin and plasma amino acid concentrations on leucine metabolism in man. Role of substrate availability on estimates of whole body protein synthesis.
TL;DR: Hyperaminoacidemia, whether in combination with hyperinsulinemia or with maintained basal insulin levels decreases endogenous leucine flux and stimulates bothLeucine oxidation and nonoxidative leucines disposal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence, metabolic features, and prognosis of metabolically healthy obese Italian individuals: the Cremona Study.
Giliola Calori,Guido Lattuada,Lorenzo Piemonti,Maria Paola Garancini,Francesca Ragogna,Marco Villa,Salvatore Mannino,Paolo Crosignani,Emanuele Bosi,Livio Luzi,Giacomo Ruotolo,Gianluca Perseghin +11 more
TL;DR: In contrast to obese insulin-resistant subjects, metabolically healthy obese individuals are less common than previously thought and do not show increased all-cause, cancer, and CVD mortality risks in a 15-year follow-up study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influenza and obesity: its odd relationship and the lessons for COVID-19 pandemic.
Livio Luzi,Maria Grazia Radaelli +1 more
TL;DR: Due to prolonged viral shedding, quarantine in obese subjects should likely be longer than normal weight individuals, and evidence from previous influenza pandemics suggests the following interventions aimed at improving immune response.
