  4. 3. Molecular mechanisms of insulin action in human skeletal muscle and adipose tissue : implications for diabetes and obesity

    Författare :Marie Björnholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Glucose transport; insulin signal transduction; skeletal muscle; adipose tissue; type 2 diabetes mellitus; obesity; very low calorie diet.;

    Sammanfattning : Studies of animal models of type 2 diabetes mellitus implicate that impaired insulin signal transduction to glucose transport accounts for whole body insulin resistance in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. The overall aim of the present thesis was to determine insulin signal transduction to glucose transport in human skeletal muscle and adipose tissue from type 2 diabetic patients and obese insulin resistant subjects.
