Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation: the link between insulin resistance, obesity and diabetes.

TL;DR: The increased concentrations of TNF-alpha and IL-6, associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes, might interfere with insulin action by suppressing insulin signal transduction, which might interfering with the anti-inflammatory effect of insulin, which in turn might promote inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic Syndrome A Comprehensive Perspective Based on Interactions Between Obesity, Diabetes, and Inflammation

TL;DR: The original conceptualization of this syndrome was on the basis of resistance to the metabolic actions of insulin, and it was maintained that hyperinsulinemia itself contributes to atherogenicity, and thus, insulin is atherogenic, leading to the coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular disease associated with this syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Procalcitonin increase after endotoxin injection in normal subjects.

TL;DR: It is concluded that endotoxin induces the release of procalcitonin systemically, that this increase is not associated with an increase in calcitonin, and that the increase in procalCitonin associated with septicemia in patients may be mediated through the effect of endotoxin described here.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative damage to DNA in diabetes mellitus

TL;DR: Diabetic patients showed greater oxidative damage to DNA, with increased generation of ROS, than controls, and such changes might contribute to accelerated aging and atherogenesis in diabetes and to the microangiopathic complications of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin Inhibits Intranuclear Nuclear Factor κB and Stimulates IκB in Mononuclear Cells in Obese Subjects: Evidence for an Anti-inflammatory Effect?

TL;DR: It is concluded that insulin has a potent acute anti-inflammatory effect including a reduction in intranuclear NFkappaB, an increase in Ikappa B, and decreases in ROS generation, p47(phox) subunit, plasma soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and plasminogen activator inhibitor- 1 (PAI-1).
