Differential Pathophysiological Drivers of Susceptibility to Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Dysfunction–Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: Ethnic Differences in Insulin Dynamics, Whole‐Body Fat Metabolism, and Organ‐Specific Lipid Deposition

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This narrative review explores the epidemiological evidence and potential underlying pathophysiological defects underlying the disproportionately greater risk of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiometabolic disease in people of South Asian and African Caribbean ancestry compared with White Europeans.

Microgravity‐induced changes in skeletal muscle and possible countermeasures: What we can learn from bed rest and human space studies

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite exercise countermeasures to sustain health and performance in spaceflight, complete maintenance of muscle mass and functions in microgravity is still not possible for most astronauts. The principal cause of the limited effectiveness of existing exercise countermeasures is the difficulty in achieving full loading forces in space.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Cardio-Lipotoxicity of Epicardial Adipose Tissue

open access: yes
Epicardial adipose tissue is a unique visceral adipose tissue depot that plays a crucial role in myocardial metabolism. Epicardial adipose tissue is a major source of energy and free fatty acids for the adjacent myocardium.

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...

Chronic attenuation of brain leptin signalling is associated with early metabolic dysfunction in lean rats

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Central leptin signalling blockade induces early metabolic dysfunction. Intracerebroventricular infusion of a leptin receptor antagonist (SLA) in rats disrupts hypothalamic leptin signalling, leading to reduced signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activation, decreased Socs3 and Pomc expression, and ...

Advances in the Study of Endometrial Receptivity and Glucose Metabolism Mechanisms in Insulin Resistance

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
This article systematically reviews how insulin resistance (IR) disrupts endometrial receptivity by interfering with glucose metabolism mechanisms, ultimately leading to infertility in patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). ABSTRACT Introduction Insulin resistance (IR) is one of the important pathologic bases of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
