Article Synopsis
- - Patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and type 2 diabetes (DM2) both show impaired glucose uptake due to insulin resistance, but the underlying mechanisms differ between the two conditions.
- - FCHL patients do not experience the reduction in plasma glycerol and free fatty acid levels during insulin infusion, indicating a problem with lipolysis suppression, unlike in DM2 and control groups.
- - Genetic studies suggest that the hormone-sensitive lipase gene (LIPE) is not responsible for the impaired fat metabolism seen in FCHL, highlighting distinct metabolic profiles in FCHL compared to DM2.
