Abstract

The mechanism of development of insulin resistance is not fully deciphered. Disorders that lead to insulin resistance can occur at the following levels of the insulin signaling pathway: pre-receptor (abnormal insulin), receptor (reduced number or affnity of receptors), glucose transport (reduced number of GLUT4 molecules), and post-receptor (signal transmission disorders) level. The article analyzes the signaling pathway of insulin, and considers the effect of gene mutations on signal transmission and glucose transport to the cell.
