5. Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome
نویسنده
چکیده
Combination of metabolic abnormalities in patients with high vascular risk is well known since long time. In his Banting lecture Reaven used the term “Syndrome X” for the description of the coexistence of these metabolic diseases. Other names as e.g. “Deadly Quartet” and insulin resistance syndrome emphasised the consequences and the possible cause of this syndrome. Most of the authors accept that the syndrome in the patients induces serious complications and that in its background insulin resistance could be the major determinant.

Metabolic syndrome has a high prevalence (about 22.4% in adult individuals) in developed countries. Inflammation due to obesity and fat accumulation is the most important factor in the progression of metabolic syndrome. In cells which have a receptor for insulin hormone, inflammatory mediators target the insulin signaling pathway and cause insulin resistance. Peroxisome proliferator-activated r...
