LECT2 functions as a hepatokine that links obesity to skeletal muscle insulin resistance.
Recent articles have reported an association between fatty liver disease and systemic insulin resistance in humans, but the causal relationship remains unclear. The liver may contribute to muscle insulin resistance by releasing secretory proteins called hepatokines. Here we demonstrate that leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2 (LECT2), an energy-sensing hepatokine, is a link between obesity and ...

Recent papers have reported an association between fatty liver disease and systemic insulin resistance in humans, but the causal relationship remains unclear. The liver may contribute to muscle insulin resistance by releasing secretory proteins, termed hepatokines. Here, we demonstrate that leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2 (LECT2), as an energy-sensing hepatokine, is a link between obesity a...
متن کاملDeletion of Skeletal Muscle SOCS3 Prevents Insulin Resistance in Obesity
Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation that contributes to defects in energy metabolism and insulin resistance. Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-3 expression is increased in skeletal muscle of obese humans. SOCS3 inhibits leptin signaling in the hypothalamus and insulin signal transduction in adipose tissue and the liver. Skeletal muscle is an important tissue for cont...
متن کاملSkeletal muscle inflammation and insulin resistance in obesity
Introduction Obesity is becoming a global epidemic, increasing the health burden of associated complications of insulin resistance and diseases such as cardiovascular disease (1). Because insulin resistance leads to type 2 diabetes (T2D) (2), T2D incidence and prevalence are also increasing rapidly. The number of adults with diagnosed diabetes in the United States nearly quadrupled over 32 year...
متن کاملExercise and obesity-induced insulin resistance in skeletal muscle
The skeletal muscle in our body is a major site for bioenergetics and metabolism during exercise. Carbohydrates and fats are the primary nutrients that provide the necessary energy required to maintain cellular activities during exercise. The metabolic responses to exercise in glucose and lipid regulation depend on the intensity and duration of exercise. Because of the increasing prevalence of ...
