Cellular changes in fat tissue - not the immune system - lead to the "hyperinflammation" characteristic of obesity-related glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes, according to new research from the University of Cincinnati (UC).And as far as the "new target for drugs" goes - lose the damn weight and don't expose yourself to the complications of medications.
Cancer and cell biology experts say this new discovery about the cellular mechanisms behind glucose intolerance may provide a different target for drugs to treat type 2 diabetes as well as insights into how aggressive cancers form.
