Anaerobic exercise has been advocated as a prescribed treatment for the management of diabetes: however, alterations in exercise-induced signaling remain largely unexplored in the diabetic muscle. Here, we compare the basal and the in situ contraction-induced phosphorylation of the AKT, GSK3beta, mTor, p70s6K, Pten, and Shp2 in the lean and obese (fa/fa) Zucker rat Extensor Digitorum Longus (EDL) muscle following a single bout of contractile stimuli. This article represents data associated with prior publications from our lab (Katta et al., 2009a, 2009b; Tullgren et al., 1991) [1-3] and concurrent Data in Brief articles (Ginjupalli et al., 2017a, 2017b; Rice et al., 2017a, 2017b) [4-7].

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how serum irisin levels relate to physical activity and metabolic health among obese individuals with low-calorie diets compared to non-obese individuals with high-calorie diets.
  • Obese participants showed significantly lower physical activity levels than non-obese participants, but irisin levels were similar in both groups.
  • A positive association was found between irisin levels and body composition metrics like total body water and lean body mass in the non-obese group, suggesting different metabolic responses to exercise and nutrition between the groups.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of chronic sympathoinhibition on glucose uptake by the myocardium and by the skeletal muscle in an animal model of obesity associated with leptin signaling deficiency. 6 obese Zucker rats (OZR) and 6 control Lean Zucker rats (LZR) were studied during basal conditions, chronic clonidine administration (30 days, 300 µg/kg), and washout recovery period. Glucose uptake in the myocardium and in the skeletal muscle was measured using positron emission tomography (PET) and 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG).

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on developing an optimized lidocaine dosing regimen for obese patients during surgery, highlighting the need for more effective pain management.
  • Researchers gathered data from 30 patients, measuring plasma levels of lidocaine and its metabolites to create a pharmacokinetic model.
  • The findings suggested that current dosing was often inadequate, but an adjusted regimen could improve the likelihood of reaching therapeutic drug concentrations.

Article Synopsis
  • Acarbose plays a significant role in reducing inflammation related to obesity and insulin resistance by influencing adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs).
  • Acarbose promotes the growth of beneficial gut bacteria that produce propionic acid, which helps inhibit the proinflammatory M1-like ATMs.
  • The study shows that acarbose directly targets and inhibits these inflammatory macrophages, suggesting its potential for therapeutic use in managing obesity and insulin resistance.

The athlete's paradox states that intramyocellular triglyceride accumulation associates with insulin resistance in sedentary but not in endurance-trained humans. Underlying mechanisms and the role of muscle lipid distribution and composition on glucose metabolism remain unclear. We compared highly trained athletes (ATHL) with sedentary normal weight (LEAN) and overweight-to-obese (OVWE) male and female individuals.
