homeostasis in skeletal muscle
stems from the realization that Sterol regulatory element binding protein - 1c (SREBP - 1c), a member of the family of transcription factors that regulate the expression of genes involved in lipid storage in liver and adipose tissue, is also present in skeletal muscle at a level close to that observed in the liver, 41,42...
