1 Activated glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is associated with insulin resistance by upregulating pentose and pentosidine in diet-induced obesity of rats. Pentoses glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Rattus norvegicus
2 Recent studies have shown that glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), the rate-limiting enzyme for the pentose phosphate pathway, was involved in insulin resistance via reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, while the roles of pentose were not examined. Pentoses glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Rattus norvegicus
3 Recent studies have shown that glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), the rate-limiting enzyme for the pentose phosphate pathway, was involved in insulin resistance via reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, while the roles of pentose were not examined. Pentoses glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Rattus norvegicus
4 G6PD activities were increased in the pancreas and liver with upregulated pentose levels in serum, pancreas, and liver of OP rats. Pentoses glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Rattus norvegicus
5 Our results suggest that the upregulation of G6PD causes an increase in the accumulation of pentose and pentosidine, which might be associated with insulin resistance in the condition of obesity. Pentoses glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase Rattus norvegicus
