Modest Decrease in Pgc1α Results in TAG Accumulation but not in Insulin Resistance in L6 Myotubes
Background/Aims: PGC-1α is an important cellular protein (coactivator) regulating myocyte mitochondria number and function, and therefore whole cellular energy status. The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of modest, temporary PGC-1α knock-down on L6 myotubes insulin resistance in a li...
