Association between adipose tissue characteristics and metabolic flexibility in humans: A systematic review

Glaves, Alice; Díaz-Castro, Francisco; Farías, Javiera; Ramírez-Romero, Rodrigo; Galgan, Jose E.; Fernández-Verdejo, Rodrigo (Frontiers Media, 2021-12-03)

Adipose tissue total amount, distribution, and phenotype influence metabolic health. This may be partially mediated by the metabolic effects that these adipose tissue characteristics exert on the nearby and distant ...

Similar metabolic health in overweight/obese individuals with contrasting metabolic flexibility to an oral glucose tolerance test

Fernández-Verdejo, Rodrigo; Malo-Vintimilla, Lorena; Gutiérrez-Pino, Juan; López-Fuenzalida, Antonio; Olmos, Pablo; Irarrazaval, Pablo; Galgani, Jose E. (Frontiers Media, 2021-11-16)

Background: Low metabolic flexibility (MetF) may be an underlying factor for metabolic health impairment. Individuals with low MetF are thus expected to have worse metabolic health than subjects with high MetF. Therefore, ...

Low abundance of Mfn2 protein correlates with reduced mitochondria-SR juxtaposition and mitochondrial cristae density in human men skeletal muscle: Examining organelle measurements from TEM images

Castro-Sepulveda, Mauricio; Fernández-Verdejo, Rodrigo; Tuñón-Suárez, Mauro; Morales-Zúñiga, Jorge; Troncoso, Mayarling; Jannas-Vela, Sebastian; Zbinden-Foncea, Hermann (Wiley Open Access, 2021-04-04)

The role of mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) in the regulation of skeletal muscle (SM) mitochondria-sarcoplasmic (SR) juxtaposition, mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial cristae density (MCD), and SM quality has not been studied in ...

Effect of supervised resistance training on arm volume, quality of life and physical perfomance among women at high risk for breast cancer-related Lymphedema: A study protocol for a randomized controlled Trial (STRONG-B)

Ramírez-Parada, Karol; Lopez-Garzon, Maria; Sanchez-Rojel, Cesar; Petric-Guajardo, Militza; Alfaro-Barra, Margarita; Fernández-Verdejo, Rodrigo; Reyes-Ponce, Alvaro; Merino-Pereira, Gina; Cantarero-Villanueva, Irene (Frontiers Media, 2022-03)

Objectives: To determine the preventive effects of supervised resistance training on arms volume, quality of life, physical performance, and handgrip strength in Chilean women at high risk for breast cancer-related ...
