Mild increase in body fat content is known to induce excessive insulin resistance in Asian Indians compared to Caucasians. We evaluated the difference in Free fatty acids and Glucose metabolism in Asian Indians and Caucasians. Insulin-dependent plasma FFA suppression is impaired in Asian Indians with even minor body fat content compared to Caucasians. Furthermore , induced plasma FFA elevation had much more impact on insulinmediated glucose disposal of Asian Indians than Caucasians even in very thin and insulin sensitive subjetcs.

Abstract
Mild increase in body fat content is known to induce excessive insulin resistance in Asian Indians compared to Caucasians. We evaluated the difference in Free fatty acids and Glucose metabolism in Asian Indians and Caucasians. Insulin-dependent plasma FFA suppression is impaired in Asian Indians with even minor body fat content compared to Caucasians. Furthermore , induced plasma FFA elevation had much more impact on insulinmediated glucose disposal of Asian Indians than Caucasians even in very thin and insulin sensitive subjetcs.Pubblicazioni consigliate
