Abstract:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a challenging and progressive metabolic disease caused by insulin resistance. Skeletal muscle is the major insulin-sensitive tissue that plays a pivotal role in blood sugar homeostasis. Dysfunction of muscle metabolism is implicated in the disturbance of glucose homeostasis, the development of insulin resistance, and T2DM. Understanding metabolism reprogramming in newly diagnosed patients provides opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment of T2DM as a challenging diseas… Show more
