Obesity-Induced Inflammation and Insulin Resistance
Immune response and metabolic regulation are highly integrated and this interface maintains a central homeostatic system, dysfunction of which can cause obesity-associated metabolic disorder such as type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, and cardiovascular disease. Insulin resistance is an underlying basis for the pathogenesis of these metabolic diseases. Overnutrition or obesity activates the i...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Regulation of Obesity-Associated Insulin Resistance
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic that predisposes individuals to metabolic complications, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, all of which are related to an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure. Identification of the pathogenic molecular mechanisms and effective therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. A well-accepted paradigm is that crosst...
متن کاملVascular stiffness in insulin resistance and obesity
Obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes are associated with a substantially increased prevalence of vascular fibrosis and stiffness, with attendant increased risk of cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease. Although the underlying mechanisms and mediators of vascular stiffness are not well understood, accumulating evidence supports the role of metabolic and immune dysregulation relat...
متن کاملResistin and obesity-associated insulin resistance.
Obesity is a major risk factor for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Adipocytes secrete numerous substances that might contribute to peripheral insulin sensitivity. These include leptin, tumor necrosis factor alpha, Acrp30/adiponectin/adipoQ and interleukin 6, the potential roles of which are briefly reviewed here. Thiazolidinedione (TZD) antidiabetic drugs regulate gene transcri...
متن کاملToll-like receptor-4 mediates vascular inflammation and insulin resistance in diet-induced obesity.
Vascular dysfunction is a major complication of metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity. The current studies were undertaken to determine whether inflammatory responses are activated in the vasculature of mice with diet-induced obesity, and if so, whether Toll-Like Receptor-4 (TLR4), a key mediator of innate immunity, contributes to these responses. Mice lacking TLR4 (TLR4(-/-)) and wi...
