1 | The relation between insulin sensitivity and the fatty-acid composition of skeletal-muscle phospholipids. | Phospholipids | insulin | Homo sapiens |
2 | Skeletal muscle is a major site of insulin action, and insulin sensitivity may be related to the fatty-acid composition of the phospholipids within the muscle membranes involved in the action of insulin. | Phospholipids | insulin | Homo sapiens |
3 | Skeletal muscle is a major site of insulin action, and insulin sensitivity may be related to the fatty-acid composition of the phospholipids within the muscle membranes involved in the action of insulin. | Phospholipids | insulin | Homo sapiens |
4 | METHODS: We determined the relation between the fatty-acid composition of skeletal-muscle phospholipids and insulin sensitivity in two groups of subjects. | Phospholipids | insulin | Homo sapiens |
5 | CONCLUSIONS: Decreased insulin sensitivity is associated with decreased concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acids in skeletal-muscle phospholipids, raising the possibility that changes in the fatty-acid composition of muscles modulate the action of insulin. | Phospholipids | insulin | Homo sapiens |
