Nutrition, insulin resistance and dysfunctional adipose tissue determine the different components of metabolic syndrome
Obesity is an excessive accumulation of body fat that may be harmful to health. Today, obesity is a major public health problem, affecting in greater or lesser proportion all demographic groups. Obesity is estimated by body mass index (BMI) in a clinical setting, but BMI reports neither body composition nor the location of excess body fat. Deaths from cardiovascular diseases, cancer and diabete...
متن کاملAdipose tissue and the insulin resistance syndrome.
Obesity is associated with insulin resistance. Insulin resistance underlies a constellation of adverse metabolic and physiological changes (the insulin resistance syndrome) which is a strong risk factor for development of type 2 diabetes and CHD. The present article discusses how accumulation of triacylglycerol in adipocytes can lead to deterioration of the responsiveness of glucose metabolism ...
متن کاملAdipose tissue function in the insulin-resistance syndrome.
Insulin resistance is often seen as a consequence of obesity and there are several possible links between adipose tissue function and insulin resistance determined in other organs such as skeletal muscle or liver. One such link is the regulation of NEFA (non-esterified fatty acid) delivery to the rest of the body. Simplistically, an expanded adipose tissue mass delivers more NEFA to the systemi...
متن کاملEpicardial adipose tissue is associated with visceral fat, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance in menopausal women.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Epicardial adipose tissue has been associated with several obesity-related parameters and with insulin resistance. Echocardiographic assessment of this tissue is an easy and reliable marker of cardiometabolic risk. However, there are insufficient studies on the relationship between epicardial fat and insulin resistance during the postmenopausal period, when cardiovas...
متن کاملInsulin resistance and its association with metabolic syndrome components.
BACKGROUND Individuals with insulin resistance are more prone to the development of metabolic syndrome (MS), Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome components. METHODS Cross-sectional study of 196 individuals between 2 and 18 years, treated at the Brazilian Public Healthcare system...
