AGER and Insulin resistance: A primary consequence of the development and progression of insulin resistance is the perpetuation of inflammatory signaling through several well‐studied pathways, including the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and Toll‐like receptor (TLR) isoforms (Cassese et al., 2008; Creely et al., 2007; Giacco & Brownlee, 2010; Jialal et al., 2014; Schmidt et al., 2001).
