Insulin resistanceThe diminished ability of cells to respond to the action of insulin in transporting glucose (sugar) from the bloodstream into muscle and other tissues. Insulin resistance typically develops with obesity and heralds the onset of type 2 diabetes. It is as if insulin is "knocking" on the door of muscle. The muscle hears the knock, opens up, [..]

Insulin resistanceA condition in which the body is unable to respond to and use the insulin it produces. As a result, the pancreas secretes more insulin into the bloodstream in an effort to reduce blood glucose levels.
|
3 |
Insulin resistanceA condition wherein the cells' ability to respond to insulin is impaired, resulting in the body secreting increased amounts of insulin in the blood in order to reduce the levels of blood glucose.

4 |
Insulin resistanceA condition in which the body produces insulin but can't use it properly. This leads to diabetes.

Insulin resistanceInsulin resistance is a condition in which the body’s cells become less sensitive to insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar levels.

Insulin resistancediminished responsiveness to insulin.

Insulin resistanceDiminished effectiveness of Insulin in lowering Blood Sugar levels: requiring the use of 200 units or more of Insulin per day to prevent Hyperglycemia or Ketosis.

Insulin resistanceThe body's decreasing ability to respond to and use the insulin it produces. As a result, excess glucose builds up in the blood (hyperglycemia). Insulin resistance increases the risk of developing prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. Use of certain antiretroviral (ARV) drugs may cause insulin resistance. See Related Term(s): Diabetes, Insulin

Insulin resistanceThe body's inability to respond to and use the insulin it produces. Insulin resistance may be linked to obesity or persistently high progesterone levels i.e. if synthetic progesterones are used therapeutically or in unspayed bitches.

Insulin resistanceInsulin resistance is when the body’s cells become less and less sensitive to the insulin that is being produced. Insulin is a hormone that is secreted or produced and released from the pancreas. Insu [..]

Insulin resistanceA condition in which the body is resistant against the effects of insulin.

Insulin resistanceDecreased insulin sensitivity. A higher level of insulin than normal is needed to obtain the same blood glucose lowering effect.
