Article Synopsis
- LKB1 deficiency in skeletal muscle does not worsen obesity or insulin resistance in mice on a high-fat diet.
- While body weight gain was unaffected, gene expression related to mitochondria, inflammation, and oxidative stress was heavily impacted by the absence of LKB1.
- These findings indicate that LKB1 plays a key role in muscle metabolism, but its absence leads to altered protein degradation and inflammation without affecting overall glucose tolerance or body weight.
