Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Mitochondrial function is associated with aerobic physical fitness and insulin sensitivity and may play an important role in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-delta (gene PPARD) and PPARgamma coactivator 1alpha (gene PPARGC1A) are determinants of mitochondrial function in animals and in vitro. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to establish...
