IMCL content within skeletal muscle is known to be a source of energy in numerous daily tasks. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of age and sex on IMCL contents. These lipids were analyzed using electron microscopy (EM) images of the vastus lateralis. Based on our analysis we found that there is a significant age by sex difference in lipid area in which older women had a smaller IMCL lipid area than younger women.
According to our analysis there is also a significant sex difference in respect to lipid circularity. Specifically, men appear to have lipids which are more circular than those found in women. We suspect that such a difference can affect the efficiency of lipid metabolism within muscle fibers which can in turn affect overall muscle function.By examining such relationships we hope this data will be helpful for creating clinical interventions to improve lipid metabolic efficiency which is beneficial for overall muscle function.

IMCL
The first time writing IMCL, you should write it out in its entirety. After that, you can abbreviate it.
