Mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract
Insulin resistance is a characteristic feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, and the metabolic syndrome. Increased intracellular fat content in skeletal muscle and liver associated with insulin resistance has led to the hypothesis that a mitochondrial defect in substrate oxidation exists in disorders of insulin resistance. In vivo measurements of metabolic fluxes through the tricarboxylic acid and oxidative phosphorylation with magnetic resonance spectroscopy have demonstrated multiple defects in mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle. A decrease in mitochondrial density and mitochondrial copy number has been reported in insulin-resistant individuals. However, these findings have not been a consistent observation in all studies. Similarly, an intrinsic functional defect in mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate production synthesis has been reported in some but not all studies. This review summarizes evidence that implicates a defect in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and its relationship to insulin resistance in common metabolic diseases characterized by impaired insulin action.

In the citing paper
“Mitochondrial dysfunction should lead to impaired fatty acid oxidation, resulting in increased intracellular fatty acyl-CoA and diacylglycerol content, with consequent activation of protein kinase C (1, 204). This, in turn, triggers a serine kinase cascade, ultimately resulting in serine phosphorylation of insulin-receptor substrate type 1 (IRS-1). This has the consequence of blocking the tyrosine”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
