It is well established that peripheral insulin sensitivity is a critical factor in the aetiology of non-insulin dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Insulin resistance may also play a role at various stages in the natural history of insulin dependent (Type 1) diabetes (IDDM) and this was th
We describe three siblings with a mild diabetes mellitus in combination with acanthosis nigricans and multiple minor physical abnormalities. Fasting plasma insulin was elevated up to 100-fold as compared with normal values, and the diabetes was classified as insulin resistant. Insulin-binding studie
Insulin resistance of skeletal muscle, liver and fat combined with an abnormality of insulin secretion characterizes Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. There is increasing evidence that the insulin resistance of the skeletal muscle plays a key role early in the development of Type 2 d
