fatty acids and their derivatives have been shown to interfere with glucose metabolism via a number of mechanisms, including substrate competition, inhibition of insulin signaling pathways, and modulation of gene transcription processes ( Hegarty et al

Introduction Obesity is associated with elevated circulating free fatty acids (FFAs) and FFAs cause insulin resistance ( Lewis et al . 2002 , Xiao et al . 2008 ). FFAs induce oxidative stress ( Nakamura et al . 2009 , Yuzefovych et al . 2010

Introduction Obesity leads to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) because of insulin resistance, and insulin resistance of obesity is due to elevated circulating levels of free fatty acids (FFAs) and cytokines ( Boden 1997 , Lewis et al . 2002
