Molecular Mechanisms Involved in Insulin and Palmitate Actions on Clonal, Hypothalamic Cell Lines Expressing Neuropeptide Y and Agouti-related Peptide

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) ensues from diminished insulin sensitivity and abated compensatory insulin secretion. While diminished insulin secretion has a strong genetic origin, environmental factors are central in the development of insulin resistance; these include hyperinsulinemia and lipoto...
