Liver hormone is a cause of insulin resistance

physorg.com

Researchers have identified a hormone produced and secreted by the liver as a previously unknown cause of insulin resistance. The findings, in the November issue of Cell Metabolism, suggest a new target for the treatment of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, the researchers say.

High-fat diet during pregnancy programs child for future diabetes

eurekalert.org — “A high-fat diet during pregnancy may program a woman's baby for future diabetes, even if she herself is not obese or diabetic, says a new University of Illinois study. "We found that exposure to a high-fat diet before birth modifies gene expression in the livers of offspring so they are more likely to overproduce glucose, which can cause early insulin resistance and diabetes," said Yuan-Xiang Pan, a U of I professor of nutrition.View full resource at eurekalert.org

Tale of 2 mice pinpoints major factor for insulin resistance

labspaces.net — “The road to type 2 diabetes is paved with insulin resistance, a condition often associated with obesity in which the hormone begins to fail at its job helping to convert sugars to energy. Researchers at Joslin Diabetes Center have now identified an enzyme called PKC-delta as an important molecular modifier for development of insulin resistance, diabetes and fatty liver in mice.View full resource at labspaces.net

A diabetes drug, sitagliptin, also has a potential to prevent diabetes

physorg.com — “Diabetes type 2 is caused by insufficient levels of insulin to keep blood glucose under control. Excessive levels of another hormone, glucagon, can also contribute to diabetes type 2 by causing the liver to flood the body with stored glucose. Diabetes type 2 does not arise overnight, but slowly progresses ...View full resource at physorg.com

qualitypointtech.net — “METABOLISM - New mechanism explains the role of growth hormone in fatty liver Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common condition that is linked to obesity and insulin resistance. If left untreated, this build up of fat deposits within the liver cells can lead to fibrosis and scarring of the organ. Although not completely understood, aberrant growth hormone (GH) signaling is thought to contribute to the development of this disorder, as genetic deletion of the GH receptor in the liverView full resource at qualitypointtech.net

What Are the Causes of High Blood Pressure in Diabetics? | The Diabetes Club - Digg

digg.com — “It is assumed that diabetics don--™t produce enough insulin, but in type 2 diabetes, that might not be the case. In fact, many type 2 diabetics have high levels of this hormone in the blood mainly due to the cells resisting the efforts of insulin to usher glucose in, creating what is known as insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is one of the causes of hypertension, which may explain why blood pressure goes up soon after the onset of type 2 diabetes.View full resource at digg.com
