We suggest that reduced muscle glucose uptake in obesity is not due to defects in the insulin signaling pathway at the level of Akt/AS160, which suggests there remain significnt gaps in our knowledge of muscle insulin resistance in obesity. Our data imply that models of acute lipotoxicity don’t replicate the pathophysiology of obesity (Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism)
