Absence of adipose-triglyceride-lipase(ATGL), mainly expressed in muscle and adipose tissue, leads to triglyceride accumulation and decreased free-fatty-acid availability, boosting glucose metabolism. Here, we tested muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity of ATGL-KO mice, in vivo, with dynamic 31PMRS, simultaneously with force measurements.
