This study finds that high-intensity interval training increases mitochondrial cristae density in type 2 diabetes patients, with no baseline differences in cristae density compared to other groups.

This study identifies TGM2 as a predictive marker of hepatic steatosis improvement in obese mice infected with H. p. bakeri, showing its role in type 2 immune responses and potential therapeutic applications.

The paper identifies REPS1 as a regulator of muscle glucose uptake through phosphoproteomic analysis of insulin and exercise responses in human skeletal muscle.

The paper uses proteomics to identify personalized signatures of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, showing that fasting proteome and phosphoproteome predict insulin sensitivity and reveal sex-specific differences.

This study finds that male elite endurance athletes have greater lipid droplet-mitochondria contact in skeletal muscle compared to recreationally active individuals, linked to higher organelle densities and specific size-related associations.

This study identifies SLIRP as a mitochondrial mRNA stabilizing protein that regulates mitochondrial structure and respiration in skeletal muscle, with exercise improving mitochondrial function through increased mitoribosome capacity.
