25 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Insulin resistance (IR) is a state when the physiological amount of insulin is not sufficient to evoke proper action, that is, glucose uptake. Numerous conditions lead to IR, including epigenetic components. Epigenetic modifications, associated with obesity and IR are one of the main mechanisms leading to IR pathogenesis. The adipose tissue samples (subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral (VAT)) were collected during...
