Through the use of cell culture and mouse models, this article shows that obesity causes stress in cells' endoplasmic reticulum. This leads to suppression of insulin receptor signalling via the hyper-activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) along with serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate–1 (IRS-1). Mice which lack X- box–binding protein–1 (XBP-1), a transcription factor that modulates ER stress response, develop insulin resistance. The article argues that ER stress is an important feature of peripheral insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes at multiple levels. It is hypothesised that pharmacologic alteration of this pathway may offer chances of treating obesity. | Through the use of cell culture and mouse models, this article shows that obesity causes stress in cells' endoplasmic reticulum.

Obesity-induced insulin resistance is a major factor in the subsequent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Jun kinases (JNKs) are key negative regulators of insulin sensitivity in obese persons. Activation of JNKs (mainly JNK1) in insulin target cells causes the phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrates (IRSs) at serine and threonine residues that inhibit insulin signaling. JNK1 activation is also required for accumulation of visceral fat. Here we used reciprocal adoptive transfer experiments to determine whether JNK1 in myeloid cells, such as macrophages, also contributes to insulin resistance and central adiposity. Our results show that deletion of Jnk1 in the nonhematopoietic compartment protects mice from high-fat diet (HFD)-induced insulin resistance, in part through decreased adiposity. Conversely, removing JNK1 from hematopoietic cells has no effect on adiposity but causes protection against insulin resistance induced by a high fat diet, by decreasing obesity-induced inflammation. | Obesity-induced insulin resistance is a major factor in the subsequent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.

One-half of adult Pima Indians have diabetes and 95% of those with diabetes are overweight. Scientists use the "thrifty gene" theory proposed in 1962 by geneticist James Neel to help explain why many Pima Indians are overweight
