Mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle insulin resistance induced by fatty acids: importance of the mitochondrial function

Abstract: Insulin resistance condition is associated to the development of several syndromes, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome. Although the factors linking insulin resistance to these syndromes are not precisely defined yet, evidence suggests that the elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA) level plays an important role in the development of skeletal muscle insulin resistance. Accordantly, in vivo and in vitro exposure of skeletal muscle and myocytes to physiological concentrations of satu… Show more

“…The physiopathology of insulin resistance remains difficult to apprehend since it results from a complex integration of diverse cellular disorders: inflammation [144], intra/extracellular lipids accumulation [145,146], mitochondrial dysfunction [147] and oxidative stress [8].…”

“…Such hyperinsulinemia therefore facilitates fattening in insulin-resistant conditions. While obesity is a common correlate of insulin resistance, it is clear that exposure to high-saturated fat diets can induce insulin resistance long before obesity ensues and that such diet-precipitated insulin resistance actually facilitates further fattening [21][22][23][24]. How a westernized diet high in saturated fats (and simple sugars) induces insulin resistance has been the focus of much investigation in the past few decades during which time the prevalence of obesity and T2DM has risen dramatically worldwide.…”

“…10 In addition to increased cytokine and acute phase reactant (e.g., C-reactive protein) production, FFA levels commonly seen in the plasma of obese patients and patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus lead to macrophage accumulation and contribute to insulin resistance. 11 Supranormal levels of FFA also impair endothelial function and nitric oxide release, with chronic elevation impacting on pancreatic cell function and insulin secretion.…”
