Abstract
Hepatic insulin resistance is a key feature of type 2 diabetes, and the consequent dysregulation of glucose and lipid output from the liver are important contributors to the observed hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. While excessive lipid accumulation and defective signaling by protein kinase C have been implicated in the past, the full panoply of molecular mechanisms involved is still not defined. Deeper insights would therefore be welcome in the quest to identify new therapeutic approaches to the disease.File in questo prodotto:
