Insulin Resistance & Dyslipidemia
from Metabolism Made Easy · host A J Ghalayini, Ph.D.
Insulin resistance will frequently produce dyslipidemia, which is characterised by elevated plasma triglycerides and fatty acids. The increase in triglycerides is most likely due to a decrease in the activity of endothelial lipoprotein lipase, while the increase in fatty acids is likely due to a decreased inhibition of hormone-sensitive lipase by insulin in adipose tissue.
