Lipid signalling dynamics of palmitate-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress in skeletal muscle
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Approximately 340 million people worldwide have Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), making identification of the aetiological processes underlying this disease imperative. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has emerged as a potential mechanism driving the pathogenesis of obesity and T2DM. Palmitate, the predominant saturated fatty acid elevated in the blood plasma of obese individuals, induces ER stress and insulin re...
