Metabolism, 1984
To analyze whether enhanced adiposity in females as compared with males is associated with a decreased sensitivity to insulin, a group of healthy normal weight females (n = 13, age 21 +/- 1 years) and males (n = 11, age 23 +/- 1 year, mean +/- SEM) was studied.

Insulin-dependent regulation of the insulin-sensitivity of adipocytes
Nature, 1978THE responsiveness of a target organ to insulin is evidently subject to regulation. This phenomenon is best demonstrated by the presence in man and animals of insulin-resistant states1–4. Since these states are usually accompanied by elevations in plasma insulin levels, a role for insulin in the modulation of insulin-sensitivity of target organs has ...

Influence of exercise on insulin sensitivity
Journal of Cardiovascular Risk, 1995An important determinant of insulin sensitivity in humans, the insulin-induced glucose uptake in skeletal muscle (directed into glycogen synthesis), has been found to be markedly enhanced in endurance-trained individuals compared with sedentary controls.

Vitamin D, glucose, insulin, and insulin sensitivity
Nutrition, 2008This review examines available evidence of links between abnormalities of glucose and insulin metabolism and vitamin D deficiency. Possible mechanisms of action of vitamin D include stimulation of insulin secretion and effects on insulin sensitivity.

Insulin induced changes in insulin binding and insulin-sensitivity of adipocytes
Metabolism, 1978The ability of insulin to regulate the insulin sensitivity of adipose tissue was directly studied by maintaining fat in Medium 199 for 17 hr in the presence or absence of the hormone (10.5 X 10−9M). Following this “chronic” treatment with insulin, the tissue was washed and the adipocytes isolated by collagenase treatment that removes essentially all of

Methods of Measuring Insulin Sensitivity
Biological Research For Nursing, 2007Insulin resistance is a component of several health disorders, most notably impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Insulin-resistant individuals have an impaired biological response to the usual action of insulin; that is, they have reduced insulin sensitivity. Various methods are used to assess insulin sensitivity both in individuals

Insulin resistance has a genetic background and its phenotypic expression is triggered by fat diet, lack of physical activity and obesity. It provokes a stress on B cells, tends to increase blood glucose levels, is intimately associated with the metabolic syndrome and represents a major cardiovascular risk factor.
