Insulin Resistance - The Basics Insulin resistance is a condition characterized by an inability of the body to utilize the hormone insulin properly.Â Insulin, produced by the beta cells of the pancreas, is responsible for 'unlocking' cells to let glucose inside to be metabolized for energy. If their are too few insulin receptors (i.e., the cell 'lock' where insulin binds), or if the insulin receptors don't respond as they should, insulin resistance is the result. The majority of people with type 2 diabetes are insulin resistant. They have plenty of insulin, but their bodies do not process it correctly. People with type 1 diabetes may also have some degree of insulin resistance, but are primarily insulin insufficient (i.e., their pancreas produces little to no insulin). Some people with type 2 diabetes may also develop insufficiency along with insulin resistance over time. People who are insulin resistant have high levels of circulating insulin (i.e., hyperinsulinemia) in the body. This is because their pancreas continues to pump out more and more insulin in an effort to lower rising blood glucose levels. When an individual can no longer produce enough insulin to compensate for the rise, type 2 diabetes develops.

http://www.biocarta.com/pathfiles/h_leptinPathway.asp

Extractions: The insulin resistance of type II diabetes appears to be caused in part by the presence of high levels of lipids in cells such as skeletal muscle where this would not normally be found. The presence of excess lipid stores in skeletal muscle cells interferes with energy metabolism, impairing glucose oxidation and insulin response. Skeletal muscle is one of the primary glucose-consuming tissues, giving it a central role in insulin resistance. The increased risk of diabetes associated with obesity may be caused by increased lipid deposits in skeletal muscle and liver, creating insulin resistance.

Extractions: Metabolic monitoring may be indicated for patients Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Childrenâs Center say a group of drugs known as âatypical antipsychoticsâ that are commonly used to treat children with aggression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia may trigger insulin resistance, a condition that increases the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease later in life. Results of the study linking insulin resistance to the use of these antipsychotics are scheduled for presentation October 20th during the annual meeting of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in Washington, D.C. (October 19-24) For the study, the Johns Hopkins team evaluated 11 children, some overweight and others obese, who gained significant amounts of weight (a 10 percent weight increase) while taking the new-generation, or atypical, antipsychotic drugs olanzpine, quetiapine, and risperidone. Considerable weight gain is a common side effect of atypical antipsychotic medications, and is also one of the many factors that can contribute to insulin resistance. All six children on moderate or high doses of one of these drugs, and three of five children on low doses, had evidence of insulin resistance, a condition in which the body cannot properly use the insulin it produces. This evidence included hypertension, high levels of triglycerides, low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (âgoodâ cholesterol) and increased levels of protein in the urine.

More recently, however, it has become apparent that an impairment in insulin action is shared by a variety of conditions not necessarily associated with diabetes or obesity. These conditions include essential hypertension, dyslipidemia, endothelial dysfunction, hyperuricemia and many others. Moreover, these conditions tend to cluster with insulin resistance prompting the definition of the "Syndrome of Insulin Resistance." This association has been recently recognized by the WHO as a tentative definition of diagnostic criteria was proposed. This book provides a comprehensive information on the role of insulin resistance as prognostic parameter.

May/June 2000 What is insulin resistance? To better understand insulin resistance, let's review some basic biochemistry. Insulin is a hormone produced by the islet cells of the pancreas. When blood glucose (blood sugar) rises after food is eaten, the pancreas pumps out insulin, whose job is to shuttle glucose into cells, where glucose is used for energy or stored as glycogen. To do its job, insulin must fit like a key into receptors lining the outside of the cell. Each cell contains 20,000 or more insulin receptors. Once inserted in the cell's receptors, insulin activates an enzyme in the receptors called tyrosine kinase. This triggers a series of events that allows glucose to enter the cell. With insulin resistance, the cells "resist" this process, so instead of entering the cell, glucose builds up in the blood. The pancreas responds by pumping out higher than normal levels of insulin in an attempt to reduce blood glucose to normal levels.

http://www.s2mw.com/heartofdiabetes/resistance.html

Extractions: Insulin resistance occurs when the body can't use insulin efficiently. To compensate, the pancreas releases more and more insulin to try to keep blood sugar levels normal. Gradually, the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas become defective and ultimately decrease in total number. As a result, blood sugar levels begin to rise, causing full-blown diabetes to develop. Heart disease is the leading cause of diabetes-related deaths, yet many diabetes patients do not understand this risk or its cause. According to a survey released by the American Heart Association in May 2001, 63 percent of diabetes patients said they have cardiovascular disease, yet only 33 percent of them identified heart disease as the "most serious" diabetes-related complication. Conversely, while only about 25 percent of diabetes patients reported having eye problems, 50 percent said blindness was the most serious complication.
