Molecular Mechanisms of Skeletal Muscle Insulin Resistance in Type 2 Diabetes

Bouzakri, Karim, Koistinen, Heikki, Zierath, Juleen·2005·Current Diabetes Reviews

Abstract

Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus afflicts millions of people worldwide and is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality. Current therapeutic agents to treat Type 2 diabetes are insufficient and thus, newer approaches are desperately needed. Type 2 diabetes is manifested by progressive metabolic impairments in tissues such as skeletal muscle, adipose tissue and liver, such that these tissues become less responsive to insulin. Skeletal muscle is quantitatively the most important tissue involved in maintaining glucose homeostasis under insulin-stimulated conditions, and is a major site of insulin resistance in Type 2 diabetic patients. At the cellular level, glucose transport into skeletal muscle is the rate-limiting step for whole body glucose uptake and a primary site of insulin resistance in Type 2 diabetes. Thus, skeletal muscle is a key insulin target tissue that harbours intrinsic defects that impinges upon whole body glucose homeostasis. Here, we review the current knowledge of signalling events that regulate glucose transport in human skeletal muscle.

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.
