Fat on chest and upper back increases risk of insulin resistance
Upper trunk fat -- deposits of fat on the chest and back -- is associated with an increased risk of insulin resistance, a condition that is a precursor of type 2 diabetes, according to a study led by researchers at the San Francisco VA Medical Center (SFVAMC). view more (2007-08-20)
Insulin levels and resistance linked to risk of pancreatic cancer
Higher insulin concentrations and insulin resistance are associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer in men. view more (2005-12-14)
Short legs associated with precursor of diabetes and heart disease
Short-legged men have an increased risk of heart disease and a condition that leads to diabetes, insulin resistance syndrome, shows research in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. view more (2001-11-09)
Glucose levels trigger compensation for type 2 diabetics
Many individuals with type 2 diabetes are diabetic because the cells of their body no longer respond to the hormone insulin, which is crucial for lowering blood sugar levels (blood glucose levels). view more (2007-01-03)
Researchers identify new target in fight against obesity
University of Cincinnati (UC) scientists have identified a possible new target for treating obesity and diabetes. view more (2005-09-20)
Weight lifting can help overweight teens reduce risk of diabetes
Teens at risk of developing diabetes can prevent or delay its onset through strength training exercise, a University of Southern California study has found. view more (2006-07-26)
Inhaled Insulin Means Better Quality of Life for Diabetics
22 August 2003: Inhaled insulin is emerging as a possible alternative to injected insulin for people with diabetes. Whilst insulin injections enable diabetics to eat and live relatively normally, there are disadvantages to this method of treatment, with multiple injections often needed for tight control. Additionally, the injected insulin cannot... view more... (2003-08-22)
Inheritance of hormonal disorder marked by excessive insulin in daughters
Elevated levels of insulin could be an early sign that girls whose mothers suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome -- or PCOS -- may also be susceptible to the disease, according to gynecologists who have found evidence of insulin resistance in young children. view more (2008-07-29)
Overweight siblings of children with type 2 diabetes likely to have abnormal blood sugar levels
Overweight siblings of children with type 2 diabetes are four times more likely to have abnormal glucose levels compared to other overweight children. Because abnormal glucose levels may indicate risk for diabetes or diabetes itself, these children could benefit from screening tests and diabetes prevention education. view more (2008-12-10)
Don't forget the vitamin A when working with its carrier protein

Chemistry & Industry - 1 October Issue
NEWS Unexplained miscarriages could be linked to insulin resistance (page 5) Insulin resistance could explain why some women suffer from repeated miscarriage. The association of insulin resistance with repeated pregnancy loss in diabetics and women with polycystic ovary syndrome are well known, but this is the first time its effect on pregnancy... view more...

Insulin boost restores muscle growth in elderly
When most people think of insulin, they think of diabetes - a disease that arises when, for one reason or another, insulin can't do the critical job of helping the body process sugar. view more (2009-09-28)
UCSD researchers discover inflammation, not obesity, cause of insulin resistance
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have discovered that inflammation provoked by immune cells called macrophages leads to insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. view more (2007-11-07)
Novel link between excessive nutrient levels and insulin resistance
For quite some time now, scientists suspected the so-called hexosamine pathway - a small side business of the main sugar processing enterprise inside a cell - to be involved in the development of insulin resistance. But they could never quite put their finger on the underlying mechanism. view more (2008-02-22)
Metabolic syndrome -- don't blame the belly fat
Abdominal fat, the spare tire that many of us carry, has long been implicated as a primary suspect in causing the metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that includes the most dangerous heart attack risk factors: prediabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure, and changes in cholesterol. view more (2007-07-17)
Fatty diets or high alcohol intake during pregnancy may lead to diabetes in children
Fatty diets or high alcohol intake during pregnancy may lead to diabetes in children Women who consume a high fat diet or who drink significant amounts of alcohol during pregnancy may increase the risk of their child developing diabetes as an adult according to a study in the current edition of the Journal of Endocrinology. A team led by Dr Sam... view more... (2002-04-25)
Polycystic ovarian syndrome: New light on its causes and its effect on brothers
Researchers have found evidence that chronic disease in either a mother or father can create unfavourable conditions in the womb that are associated with the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) in daughters. view more (2009-06-30)
Regulating the sugar factory in diabetes
Scientists in Sydney and Boston believe they may have identified a gene that controls abnormal production of sugar in the liver, a very troublesome problem for people with diabetes. view more (2009-05-21)

The brain plays a major role in the ability of insulin therapy to lower blood sugar in animals with diabetes. view more (2006-01-11)
Losartan prevents life-threatening insulin resistance in burn injuries
Researchers have found a way to prevent insulin resistance in burn-injured rats, a finding that, while still quite preliminary, could eventually save burn victims' lives and speed their recovery. view more (2006-04-06)
