Obesidad y ácidos grasos en la etiología de la resistencia insulínica

Fatty acids, obesity and insulin resistance relationship are discussed. In the last decades fatty acids (FA) have been implicated in the etiology of insulin resistance. Initially, this process was related to FA inhibitory effects on glucose uptake mediated by the FA oxidation metabolites. This mecha...

In the last decades fatty acids (FA) have been implicated in the etiology of insulin resistance.

This paper discuss the role played by FA and obesity on insulin resistance, mainly in relation to FA effects on glucose metabolism in the liver, muscle and adipose tissues.
