Unacylated ghrelin is associated with changes in insulin sensitivity and lipid profile during an exercise intervention

Objective  Ghrelin has been implicated in energy homeostasis, body weight regulation and glucose metabolism. Level of unacylated ghrelin (UAG), but not acylated ghrelin (AG), has been suggested to increase during long‐term exercise. However, the association of the level of UAG with exercise‐induced changes of insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism has not been previously investigated. We hypothesized that an increase in UAG level in response to a long‐term exercise programme improves insulin sensitivity and associated lipid profile, independently of weight loss.
