stress cannot be distinguished. A reductionist approach to the study of the effects of FFAs on insulin sensitivity is to intravenously infuse lipid emulsions, such as Intralipid, with heparin (IH) to stimulate lipoprotein lipase so that plasma FFAs are

Introduction Type 2 diabetes is a complex illness mainly characterized by hyperglycemia, usually accompanied by pancreatic islets malfunction, and reduced insulin sensitivity, as well as lower insulin clearance. Although hyperglycemia is one of the

restriction during embryonic period with high-fat diet (HFD) in later adult period significantly impairs the insulin sensitivity relative to the control animals fed HFD. This evidence suggests that nutritional supply during embryonic period influences the

glucose levels decreased slowly and still higher in the HFD group ( Fig. 2 B), suggesting that HFD feeding reduced insulin sensitivity in mice. We also measured the major molecules involved in insulin signaling in insulin-sensitive tissues. HFD inhibited
