Influences of sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c silencing on glucose production in HepG2 cells treated with free fatty acid
Abstract Background Elevation of exogenous free fatty acid (FFA) level leads to insulin resistance (IR) in liver, IR is manifested by elevated hepatic glucose production. We aim to study whether inhibition of endogenous fatty acid synthesis could decrease hepatic glucose production. Methods Low-pass...
