The interplay between muscle mass decline, obesity, and type 2 diabetes

Abstract: Of note, there is a selection of measuring tools by which muscle mass is assessed. Computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are considered the gold standards for muscle mass evaluation. 2,3 The cutoff points for low muscle mass are not yet well defined for these measurements. Due to the limited access and high cost of the abovementioned imaging studies, the EWGSOP recommends dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as a reference method. 2,3 Bioelectrical impedance (BIA) methods correl… Show more

“…All these reports and observations support the findings of our study. 17,18 Since the prevalence of obesity is rising and usually sarcopenia associated with obesity is not taken into consideration we need ling term prospective studies that would specifically target and aim at sarcopenia prevention strategies, to prevent sarcopenic obesity and its metabolic consequences through exercise and diet programs. 16 Skeletal muscle mass makes the major proportion of body organs responsible for glucose disposal after meals.…”

“…The removal or sympathetic denervation of murine BAT enhances hypertriglyceridemia and obesity [58]. Serum hypertriglyceridemia with subsequent storage in WAT (ectopically stored in skeletal muscle and the liver) reduced the insulin sensitivity of these organs and increased the risk of T2D [59]. Brown adipocyte clear serum from TG is used to refill the lipid stores used for non-shivering thermogenesis.…”

“…This might result from significantly lower body weight, but these parameters were associated with lower FFM and SMM, without any differences in total body fat content and distribution. Lower muscle mass is also associated with lower insulin sensitivity and disturbances in glucose homeostasis [15,34]. Nevertheless, the TT-genotype carriers, despite having lower fat-free mass and muscle mass, presented more favorable results for glucose homeostasis parameters when dietary carbohydrates provided >48% of daily energy intake.…”
