Mechanismy inzulínové rezistence u lidí se zaměřením na adipózní tkáň

Abstract

Endocrine activity of adipose tissue is implicated in the development of insulin resistance (IR). The thesis aimed to extend the knowledge of mechanisms contributing to IR. Study I - To investigate the effect of acute hyperinsulinaemia and acute angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade (ARB) on plasma concentrations and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) expressions of selected adipokines in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy controls Study II - To investigate the effect of 3-week telmisartan treatment on insulin resistance and plasma concentrations and SAT expressions of selected adipokines in subjects with metabolic syndrome and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) Study III - To investigate the effect of prolonged hypertriglyceridaemia on plasma concentrations and SAT expressions of selected adipokines in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy control subjects Study IV - To assess the plasma concentrations and SAT expressions of selected adipokines in subjects with different categories of glucose intolerance Methodology: Hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp, Intralipid infusion and saline infusion were used to simulate specific metabolic conditions in vivo in 4 groups: 8 young healthy men, 11 overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes, 12 age-matched healthy controls and 12 overweight/obese patients...
