We hypothesize that i) as compared to healthy obese humans, metabolically unhealthy obese humans, characterized by ectopic fat accumulation and insulin resistance, show an enhanced lipogenic response in liver and a lower lipogenic response in…
Using non-invasive imaging techniques, fat accumulation and metabolism can be studied in ectopic fat stores. Particularly interesting in the field of food and nutrition is the application of 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to follow the…
