As a result, that only with larger amounts of insulin the effect can be achieved, that would made in missing insulin resistance from lower levels.

So that the body's cells take sugar from the blood, insulin to receptors is bound first, located at the cell surface. This binding operation raises usually the signal in the cell, to include sugar.

Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

                    Diabetes mellitus Type 2

 

Type 2 diabetes mellitus comprises an array of dysfunctions resulting from the combination of resistance to insulin action and inadequate insulin secretion. It is disorders are characterized by hyperglycemia and associated with microvascular (ie, retinal, renal, possibly neuropathic), macrovascular (ie, coronary, peripheral vascular), and neuropathic (ie, autonomic, peripheral) complications. (See Pathophysiology and Clinical Presentation.)

Diabetes Mellitus Type 1

                     Diabetes mellitus Type 1

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a multisystem disease with both biochemical and anatomical/structural consequences. It is a chronic disease of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism caused by the lack of insulin, which results from the marked and progressive inability of the pancreas to secrete insulin because of autoimmune destruction of the beta cells. (See Pathophysiology.)
