Insulin resistance is a strong biological marker of both obesity and type 2 diabetes. Abnormal fat deposition within skeletal muscle has been identified as a mechanism of obesity-associated insulin resistance. Biliopancreatic diversion (BPD), inducing a massive lipid malabsorption, leads to a reversion of type 2 diabetes. To elucidate the mechanisms of diabetes reversibility, the expression of genes involved in glucose and free fatty acids (FFAs) metabolism was investigated in skeletal muscle biopsies from obese, type 2 diabetic subjects. Peripheral insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion was also measured.
