ABSTRACT. Insulin resistance plays a major role for the reduced glucose tolerance in obesity, type II diabetes and stress. Both in vivo and in vitro studies strongly support the major importance of post-receptor perturbations as the cause of the insulin resistance in these conditions. One likely level for the post-receptor alterations is the reported reduction in glucose transport.
Key words: Insulin resistance, diabetes, obesity, insulin receptors, glucose transport.
Synthesis, characterization and evaluation of the suppression of insulin resistance in Type-II diabetes mellitus animals by treatment with metal complex
