Amelioration of lipid-induced insulin resistance in rat skeletal muscle by overexpression of Pgc-1β involves reductions in long-chain acyl-CoA levels and oxidative stress
To determine if acute overexpression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, gamma, coactivator 1 beta (Pgc-1β [also known as Ppargc1b]) in skeletal muscle improves insulin action in a rodent model of diet...
