Сytokine and matrix metalloproteinase profile in the skeletal muscle of rats with diet-induced obesity
Background. Our previous studies revealed impaired contractile performance of skeletal muscle in diet-induced obesity, accompanied by intramyocellular lipid accumulation and signs of fibrosis. These findings suggest that obesity-related muscle dysfunction may result from activation of pro-fibrotic pathways and imbalanc...
