Quote: Uncoupling A High-fat Diet From Insulin Resistance And Diabetes (Science Daily)
Insulin resistance is a major factor in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and is strongly associated with obesity, according to a new study. Gerald Shulman and colleagues from Yale University Medical School report that overexpression of uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) in the skeletal muscle of mice is able to protect against the development of high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance.
