INS and Hyperglycemia: Three key defects herald the onset of hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes: (1) impaired insulin action/insulin resistance in muscle, liver, and adipose tissue;(2) elevated prandial and postprandial hepatic glucose production, resulting, in part, from defects in glucagon regulation; and (3) diminished insulin secretion, resulting from defects in β cell function and mass (1-6).Various medications have been approved for the treatment of type 2 D Min many countries.
