Adrenomedullin disrupts insulin signaling in blood vessels, leading to systemic insulin resistance in obesity-associated type 2 diabetes, according to a new study by a team at the Max Planck Institute ...

When most people think about insulin resistance, sugar is usually the first thing that comes to mind. And while excessive ...

Insulin resistance plays a role in many diseases. The new research provides insights into why insulin resistance appears to be associated with neurodegenerative disorders. Corresponding author Kai ...

A new study focuses on the insulin receptor to understand its role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus, a metabolic disease with a major impact on global health. Insulin resistance precedes ...

Developing resistance to insulin is a key step on the road to diabetes, making insulin resistance a target for treating metabolic dysfunction. Insulin orchestrates blood glucose levels by signaling ...

Three years ago, the inceptor protein was discovered and its role as an inhibitor of the insulin signaling pathway was described. Inceptor and the insulin receptor are located on the surface of beta ...

Researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil have succeeded in showing, in an animal model, that the process of insulin resistance in the brain affects both Alzheimer’s disease and ...

And it’s true that increasing intake of omega-3-rich foods (like fatty fish) improves cholesterol, triglycerides, blood ...
