Effect of the dietary fat quality on insulin sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Recent evidence shows that specific fatty acids affect cell metabolism, modifying the balance between fatty acid oxidation and lipogenesis. These effects may have important implications in addressing the present epidemic of nutrition-related chronic ...

Fat oxidation, fitness and skeletal muscle expression of oxidative/lipid metabolism genes in South Asians: implications for insulin resistance? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
<p><b>Background:</b> South Asians are more insulin resistant than Europeans, which cannot be fully explained by differences in adiposity. We investigated whether differences in oxidative capacity and capacity for fatty acid utilisation

Defining the Relative Role of Insulin Clearance in Early Dysglycemia in Relation to Insulin Sensitivity and Insulin Secretion: The Microbiome and Insulin Longitudinal Evaluation Study (MILES)

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Insulin resistance and insufficient insulin secretion are well-recognized contributors to type 2 diabetes. A potential role of reduced insulin clearance has been suggested, but few studies have investigated the contribution of insulin clearance while ...

Circulating vaspin is unrelated to insulin sensitivity in a cohort of nondiabetic humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Objective: To study the association of vaspin with glucose metabolism. Design: Cross-sectional and intervention study. Subjects and methods: The association of serum vaspin with metabolic and anthropometric characteristics was investigated in 108

Enhanced insulin sensitivity associated with provision of mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids in skeletal muscle cells involves counter modulation of PP2A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aims/HypothesisReduced skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity is a feature associated with sustained exposure to excess saturated fatty acids (SFA), whereas mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids (MUFA and PUFA) not only improve insulin sensitivity but blunt ...

Autophagy Differentially Regulates Insulin Production and Insulin Sensitivity

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Autophagy, a stress-induced lysosomal degradative pathway, has been assumed to exert similar metabolic effects in different organs. Here, we establish a model where autophagy plays different roles in insulin-producing β cells versus insulin ...

ZFYVE28 mediates insulin resistance by promoting phosphorylated insulin receptor degradation via increasing late endosomes production

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Insulin resistance is associated with many pathological conditions, and an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms involved is necessary to improve insulin sensitivity.

Changes in dominant groups of the gut microbiota do not explain cereal-fiber induced improvement of whole-body insulin sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Diets high in cereal-fiber (HCF) have been shown to improve whole-body insulin sensitivity. In search for potential mechanisms we hypothesized that a supplemented HCF-diet influences the composition of the human gut microbiota and/or ...

Acute glucagon induces postprandial peripheral insulin resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Glucagon levels are often moderately elevated in diabetes. It is known that glucagon leads to a decrease in hepatic glutathione (GSH) synthesis that in turn is associated with decreased postprandial insulin sensitivity.

Excessive daytime napping independently associated with decreased insulin sensitivity in cross-sectional study – Hyogo Sleep Cardio-Autonomic Atherosclerosis cohort study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundAlthough excessive daytime napping has been shown to be involved in diabetes occurrence, its impact on insulin secretion and sensitivity has not been elucidated.
