Type 2 diabetes, muscle strength, and impaired physical function: the tip of the iceberg?
نویسندگان
چکیده
There is growing recognition that the complications associated with type 2 diabetes may translate into functional impairment in older people (1). This may reflect a link between the metabolic and mechanical functions of muscle. However, the possibility that the link between glucose tolerance and physical function extends to people without diabetes has not been previously considered. The objective of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship among glucose tolerance, muscle strength, and physical function in men and women with and without type 2 diabetes.

متن کاملResponses of Muscle Mitochondrial Function to Physical Activity: A Literature Review
Skeletal muscles play an active role in regulating the metabolic homeostasis through their ability for relating to adipose tissue and endocrine hormones. Contraction of the skeletal muscle leads to increased release of several myokines, such as irisin, which is able to interact with the adipose tissue. Physical activity promotes the irisin mechanism by augmenting the peroxisomes (PGC1-α) in the...
