Insulin begets insulin [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 1999
The pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, primarily in skeletal muscle, fat and liver, and a relative failure of the pancreatic b-cell (1, 2). Considerable controversy surrounds the issue of which of these deficiencies is the primary cause of diabetes.

Insulin Resistance: From Mechanisms to Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2021
Insulin resistance is the pivotal pathogenic component of many metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, and is defined as a state of reduced responsiveness of insulin-targeting tissues to physiological levels of insulin.

Adipose tissue and insulin resistance in obese.

open access: yesBiomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie, 2021
Currently, obesity has become a global health issue and is referred to as an epidemic. Dysfunctional obese adipose tissue plays a pivotal role in the development of insulin resistance.

Mechanisms of Insulin Action and Insulin Resistance.

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2018
The 1921 discovery of insulin was a Big Bang from which a vast and expanding universe of research into insulin action and resistance has issued. In the intervening century, some discoveries have matured, coalescing into solid and fertile ground for ...

Association between insulin resistance and the development of cardiovascular disease

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
For many years, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the leading cause of death around the world. Often associated with CVD are comorbidities such as obesity, abnormal lipid profiles and insulin resistance.

Brain insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer disease: concepts and conundrums

open access: yesNature Reviews Neurology, 2018
Considerable overlap has been identified in the risk factors, comorbidities and putative pathophysiological mechanisms of Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRDs) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), two of the most pressing epidemics of our time.

Brain insulin resistance in Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders: mechanisms and therapeutic approaches

open access: yesLancet Neurology, 2020
Insulin is a peptide secreted by the pancreas and plays an important role in the regulation of glucose metabolism in peripheral tissues. Although the role of insulin in the periphery is well understood, less is known about its multifactorial role in the ...

A Branched-Chain Amino Acid-Related Metabolic Signature that Differentiates Obese and Lean Humans and Contributes to Insulin Resistance

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2009
Summary Metabolomic profiling of obese versus lean humans reveals a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA)-related metabolite signature that is suggestive of increased catabolism of BCAA and correlated with insulin resistance.
