Biomarkers of Glycolysis and the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Youth with and without Obesity
The metabolomic analysis revealed distinct characteristics between adolescents with and without obesity, thus demonstrating lower rates of aerobic glucose utilization in youth with obesity, which may contribute to the development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
