Insulin signalling in insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease syndromes

2001-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Although the relationship between insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases is well established, nature and mechanism of the insulin resistance in peripheral tissues is unclear. In this thesis I have demonstrated that a rodent model of genetic hypertension, the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP), displays resistance to the effects of insulin, characterised by defects at the level of both carb...
