Description
Results of this study provide evidence that obesity affects the expression of the subset of genes related to cell growth and glucose metabolism in blood cells and that insulin resistance in obesity is associated with changes in the expression level of IRS1, IRS2, RIPK2, RSPO1, and DNA JC15 genes, which contribute to the development of insulin resistance and glucose intolerance and possibly reflect some changes in fat tissue.
