Pharmacological inhibition of dynamin‐related protein 1 attenuates skeletal muscle insulin resistance in obesity

Abstract Dynamin‐related protein‐1 (Drp1) is a key regulator in mitochondrial fission. Excessive Drp1‐mediated mitochondrial fission in skeletal muscle under the obese condition is associated with impaired insulin action. However, it remains unknown whether pharmacological inhibition of Drp1, using...
