Activation of skeletal muscle glucose uptake by am [i.e. an] amino acid mixture and its impact on glucose tolerance and insulin resistance

Recent research suggests that amino acids can significantly increase skeletal muscle glucose uptake. However, the mechanism(s) have not been fully elucidated and it is also not clear if the beneficial impact amino acids have on healthy tissue translates to insulin resistant skeletal muscle. Theref...
