Study shows obesity increases type 2 diabetes risk by hampering ribosomal factors in fat cells.
A new study in Cell Reports finds that obesity raises the risk of type 2 diabetes by reducing the body's production of ribosomal factors, crucial for fat cells.
This shortfall causes energy to be stored inefficiently, leading to conditions like fatty liver disease.
Researchers from UCLA treated obese, diabetic mice with rosiglitazone, which restored ribosomal factors, helping fat cells function normally.
Though the mice stayed obese, their diabetes symptoms vanished, suggesting a potential new treatment approach.
