Core Tip |
In patients with insulin resistance not all the signaling pathways and the insulin responsive tissues are equally affected and some effects other than metabolic actions of insulin are overexpressed. Ovaries and the adrenal glands are two examples of tissues remaining sensitive to insulin actions where insulin may contribute to increased androgen secretion leading to androgen excess disorders. Therefore, the role and the contribution of hyperinsulinemia triggered by (selective) insulin resistance has paramount importance for elucidating the pathogenesis of these disorders and also to establish the right patient for insulin sensitizer therapy. |
