Fifty-one international specialists discuss the mechanisms of insular resistance, as discerned from a variety of animal models. Nineteen chapters explore metabolism and hypertension, molecular and genetic aspects, and aging. A sampling of topics include: the roles of insulin resistance and glycogen synthesis in liver, muscle and adipose tissue; molecular features of insulin resistance, obesity and type 2 diabetes in non-human primates; and the effect of age on the emergence of insulin resistance.Shafrir, Eleazar is the author of 'Insulin Resistance and Insulin Resistance Syndrome' with ISBN 9780415291972 and ISBN 0415291976.
