Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a plasma enzyme that can modulate the profile of lipoproteins and is thus considered: 1) a mediator of vascular disease; and 2) a therapeutic target for vascular disease. In the present study, we pursued a

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that weight loss results in a reduction in intramuscular lipid (IMCL) content that is concomitant with enhanced insulin action. Muscle biopsies were obtained from morbidly obese individuals [body m

The objectives of this study were to 1) examine skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation in individuals with varying degrees of adiposity and 2) determine the relationship between skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation and the accumulation of long-chain fa

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that muscle fiber type is related to obesity. Fiber type was compared 1) in lean and obese women, 2) in Caucasian (C) and African-American (AA) women, and 3) in obese individuals who lost weight af

In this study we have investigated whether protein kinase C (PKC) protein and activity are increased in skeletal muscle of human diabetic patients. The protein content of different PKC isoforms (beta, Theta, epsilon, delta, mu, and zeta) in the parti

This study was conducted to investigate the possible involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) and serine/threonine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in insulin resistance and/or obesity. Insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity was depressed in m

The risk and incidence of vascular disease in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are higher than those of the nondiabetic population. The modest changes in the concentration of plasma lipids that have been reported do not f

Adiponectin levels were measured in African American and Caucasian women of varying body mass index (BMI). Plasma adiponectin levels were compared and the relationship between adiponectin and insulin sensitivity was assessed. Adiponectin levels were
