Insulin resistance (IR) is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) but T2D in youth has a unique phenotype and is more common in females. We hypothesized that muscle IR, assessed using and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp techniques, would be associated with decreased mitochondrial function in adolescent females with T2D, as measured with dynamic 31P spectroscopy. T2D girls had slowed post-exercise ATP re-synthesis after exercise at an equal workload, relative to both lean and obese controls indicating decreased mitochondrial function following exercise. Further, rates of oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial capacity relate to insulin resistance in youth.
