Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular mechanisms of insulin resistance
TL;DR: It is shown that commonly accepted models that attempt to explain the association of insulin resistance and obesity are incompatible with recent findings and an alternative model is proposed that appears to fit these and other available data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired mitochondrial activity in the insulin-resistant offspring of patients with type 2 diabetes.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of insulin-resistant offspring of patients with type 2 diabetes is associated with dysregulation of intramyocellular fatty acid metabolism is supported, possibly because of an inherited defect in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammasome-mediated dysbiosis regulates progression of NAFLD and obesity
Jorge Henao-Mejia,Eran Elinav,Chengcheng Jin,Liming Hao,Wajahat Z. Mehal,Till Strowig,Christoph A. Thaiss,Andrew L. Kau,Stephanie C. Eisenbarth,Michael J. Jurczak,Joao Paulo Camporez,Gerald I. Shulman,Gerald I. Shulman,Jeffrey I. Gordon,Hal M. Hoffman,Richard A. Flavell,Richard A. Flavell +16 more
TL;DR: Altered interactions between the gut microbiota and the host, produced by defective NLRP3 and NLRP6 inflammasome sensing, may govern the rate of progression of multiple metabolic syndrome-associated abnormalities, highlighting the central role of the microbiota in the pathogenesis of heretofore seemingly unrelated systemic auto-inflammatory and metabolic disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial dysfunction in the elderly: possible role in insulin resistance
Kitt Falk Petersen,Douglas E. Befroy,Sylvie Dufour,James Dziura,Charlotte E. Ariyan,Douglas L. Rothman,Loretta DiPietro,Gary W. Cline,Gerald I. Shulman +8 more
TL;DR: Elderly study participants were markedly insulin-resistant as compared with young controls, and this resistance was attributable to reduced insulin-stimulated muscle glucose metabolism, which supports the hypothesis that an age-associated decline in mitochondrial function contributes to insulin resistance in the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial dysfunction and type 2 diabetes.
TL;DR: Emerging evidence supports the potentially unifying hypothesis that both of these prominent features of type 2 diabetes are caused by mitochondrial dysfunction.
